    'Boxing is dying...'

    Am I the only one that is ****ing sick of hearing this? It seems to be the popular 'philosophical' statement nowadays. Boxing will never die, it never did and it never could.
    As long as men stand as men, throwing punches alone, there will be the people that understand that this fighting in its purest form. There will be fluctuations, there always have been. But it is only in anticipation of the latest fighter to throw the sport into the next era.
    Boxing is not dying. Boxing will never die. As long as there are men, boxing will prevail as the number one combat sport. Period.

          The numbers don't lie. UFC is beating boxing PPV except when Oscar fights. Numbers do not lie.

                I never heard anyone say Rap was dying. In fact Rap is selling higher than ever, once again the numbers don't lie. Rap is alive but Boxing is in trouble.
