How about any fight involving Manny Pacquiao?
My wife and I started dating right after I took her to an activity at the Utah Governor's Mansion in Salt Lake to watch Pacquiao v Nedal Hussein in 2002.
It's strange that I remember that.
Will there come a time when judges in boxing are removed in favor of an automated system that doesn't have a personality, bias, or any hint of favoritism?
I never thought that type of thing would happen in baseball, but they're rolling out the automatic ball-strike (ABS) challenge system next year in MLB.
Athletes who have put so much into perfecting their game don't seem to like to be uppercut by judges who haven't put anywhere near the blood, sweat, and tears into it and who have so much impact.
This statement - clearly a bitter, but likely justified reaction to the sport changing, reminds me of the situation with Mike Gundy being fired recently as Oklahoma State's football coach after being there for 20 years.
Most major sports are going through changes that are unsettling for people who have the mentality of sticking with traditional approaches to the sport.
I feel ambivalent about what these types of changes, which definitely lead to a loss of loyalty to individual athletes, coaches, etc., are going to do to sports.
