How Many Years Have YOU Followed Boxing For?

[Trenchant]

I always watched boxing like Top Rank Boxing, Tuesday Night Fights and HBO since I was about 15, I watched more seriously since I was 20 so like 20 to 25 years I've been following boxing.

About 45 years

Since watching Ali on tape/tv as a little kid. My late father was into boxing, my older brother is very much into boxing. I must have been 6-7 years old.

So some 20 years now. More intense interest since about 15.

How many years have you been into the sweet science for?

33 years. I started watching boxing in 1977. The very first fight I saw was Ali vs Evangelista. A horrible fight, but Ali's charisma and antics made me fall in love with the sport. I remember Ali's fight with Shavers and Duran's fight with Viruet later that year, two tremendous fights. Ali and Duran were my first two boxing idols, and I cried twice late in 1980 when they respectively lost to Holmes and Leonard. I was 9 years old when I started watching boxing, my favorite sport. I will always love boxing.

Since 2008. Before I just watch the big fights of Tyson, because it was impossible to watch other great fights in german TV. But since 2008 I am watching everyday at least one fight, begining with the classics.
