what if purses..
Were based on who wins/loses the fight ? For example the winner gets 1 million the loser 500k.would the fights be better and more exciting? Youd figure the fighters would try harder to get the winners purse and make for a better show.especially if they theow in a KO bonus Knowing youre guaranteed a certein amount win lose or draw I think takes away from their efforts a bit and some cruise or just dont try hard enough.just my opinion what do you guys think ? Can this change the sport ?

back in the day did crowds boo and complain about pure boxers
like they do these days with miguel vasquez and rigondeaux ? for being too cautious or boring.or were they revered,respected,and applauded for their talent ? i feel like this is a modern day thing.am i wrong ?

my wish for 2014 - less heavyweights and more flyweights on tv
especially on major networks like HBO/SHOWTIME hell id even like to see strawweights and minimumweights showcased.theres a lot of talent in the lower divisions its a shame we dont get to see them often if not at all. we are forced to watch on a stream or on youtube after the fact

becoming a boxing photographer
i am really passionate about photography and boxing.why not merge the two together and make a career out of it ? i am currently a doorman in NYC and i make decent money and its a steady job but its not what i want to do forever.i would like to do something that i love and get payed for it.i live in NJ so i feel im in a great area since theres plenty of prizefighting in atlantic city,MSG,and barclays. so my questions are: are there any boxing photographers here ? how did you get started ? also any tips or advice on how to make this dream a reality ? i would really appreciate it thank you

does mikey garcia have the skills to upset floyd if he was at 147 ?
hes very smart,sharp,fast,technical,and has great ring generalship-punches are accurate hes a very dangerous fighter. i feel like he poses a great threat to mayweather if he was ever at welter.sadly it will prob never happen

reading sugar ray robinsons book
i never knew his real name was walker smith and he was originally known as Death Ray.his trainer as an amateur gave him some other kids ID card with ray robinson on it so he could fight that night.he didnt have his own.he kept the name ever since.he got the name sugar after someone in his fight said he had a sweet style and a woman said "sweet like sugar" some of you might know this im sure but for others that dont its some interesting stuff

"Floyd stopped undefeated fighter Diego Corrales in 10 then SIX years later he stopped undefeated Ricky Hatton in 10 now SIX years later he is fighting undefeated Canelo Alvarez. He will stop Canelo in 10"

was watching demarco vs linares last night on fox deportes
man what a great fight that was.the first time i saw it i only got to see the first 2 rounds.but boy did i miss an amazing match.two guys who boxed beautifully till a bloody end.im a big fan of linares who i thought was winning by an inch until he was stopped by the talented demarco.both had impressive speed and skills.i hope jorge can come back stronger and give us more great fights and maybe have a rematch with demarco? because it was such an entertaining bout. demarco also was fighting like a true warrior and never backed down these two hardly if ever even clinched through out the whole fight.true boxing in its purest form and nothing but respect to these two boxers who gave it their all hopefully this weekend we will see demarco once again come out victorious with a KO of adrianna broner
