    The Klitschko Ibragimov Managed to Kill Boxing Even More

    With the fact that MSG was nearly sold out and you had numerous athletes/entertainers in attendance these two heavyweights fighting for unification managed to turn away even more casual fans away from boxing. I bet Michael Strahan felt like jumping over the ropes and showing Wlad how to throw a goddamn right hand. IT was pathetic. First Floyd/Oscar now this. And people wonder why boxing is dying. Everytime there's an opportunity to showcase the sport they put up ****ty performances.

    The only thing that fight did was turn people away from heavyweight boxing not boxing in general, if last year was any indication, the heavyweights are not boxing as long as the best fight the best, boxing will continue to get better.

        You have to write a retraction about criticizing Wladimir or people will hate on you and send you bad karma/anonymous death threats.

          lol so how did the result of the fight in discussion become solely Wlad's fault? Sultan is the Worlds most boring southpaw rivaling spinks.

              One guy was able to land clean and the other didn't. We all know Teddy Atlas' adage, "You have to set the table, but then you have to eat." Wladimir had a meal in front of him and he didn't dig in. Hate me for what I say, but it's what I feel.

                I have no idea why we're even discussing this boring fight............and why there are threads being made constantly about said most boring fight ever.

                  I'm not referring to you but people in general who disagree with my perspective. We've had issues when I had nothing better to do than flame, but I consider you to be a stand-up, levelheaded true blue boxing fan.

                  People are making threads about this fight because it's the last fight of note that appeared on TV. In a perfect forum, this topic would be rolled into 3-4 superthreads.
