      start him off with exciting and stimulating fights like Tyson or Tua fights. That will get him in love with boxing which is the most important thing. when he gets older, introduce him to the more technical side of boxing with mayweather or calderon fights or any other historical fights.

        Though I followed it on/off for a couple years, Tyson-Holyfield I convinced me it was the greatest sport ever. So 12 years in November

          Better show him the second fight. The first one could be a little traumatic for him.

                    I kind of remember the days of Ali-Frazier 3, Ali-Spinks, etc...but the first fight I really remember watching was Leonard-Andy Price in 1979.....it was all boxing after that for me.

                      As long as I can remember. Boxing was big in my family and still is. I didn't become obsessed until about 98 or so.
