    MADE FOR TV fights versus MADE FOR LIVE fights

    Fights like Corrales-Castillo were MADE for TV. Seeing that fight live just isn't the same.

    The fighters were so close together, it was impossible for the fans to see all the short punches being thrown. There were even boos in the 5th and 6th rounds.


    But then there are fights like Morales-pacquioa, where the fight is gonna be great on TV, but the experience is gonna be twice as awsome if you are apart of the electric crowd

    I am not an MMA fan.

    Chuck Norris said the the UFC is a **** event live because you can't see **** once they start "doing it" on the ground.

      Live fights are much more exciting, no matter what. You get to share this excitement with a crowd, and everything feels so much bigger.

          Live fights are always better in person. I can't imagine seeing Castillo v. Corrales 1/2 or Erik Morales v. Marco Antonio Barrera 1/2/3 live, would have been insane!

          I've been to a few boxing shows. And all the fights i felt were really exciting. So you see the elite fighters live and its just so much better then live television. Same thing if you have never been to a fight, go to a local boxing gym, see the top guys really duke it out in sparring and you'll be damn, very entertaining.

            What? The crowd was loving the fight- even when Gatti was getting whooped! They were on their feet everytime Floyd threw a flurry. The sheer fact that you'd be sharing that excitement with a whole crowd make it that much cooler.
