the sport. fighters come, and go, but the sport is what i am the fan of. do i like certain fighters more than others? sure, but i watch just as many fights between guys i don't care about as well. when hagler retired, or hearns, or lewis i did not stop watching, or watch less boxing. my favorites change, but my love of the sport remains constant.

The idea that If you watch a sport because of an athlete or the team more than they do the sport itself that you are not a fan is not rational.
Because without the Athlete their is no sport to watch.!
Let me make this point very clear...
People would not watch the sport if not for the athletes of the sport.
It's called duality one can not exist without the other...!
Which means one is not bigger than the other...!
Why cant people have favorite fighters and also like boxing...
Thats not a radical idea...You can do both..!!!
It's called duality one can not exist without the other...!
How Does Somebody not like the sport in which their favorite athlete playsComment

It's ok to be a fan of someone particular and be a fan of the sport as well.
Example: Some Mike Tyson-esque fans have abandoned the sport of boxing. They enjoyed the quick knockouts and the drama and now you might even catch them on Youtube commenting on how Mike Tyson at his prime would have beaten Lewis and everybody else blah blah. At your workplace, you might try to have a conversation with them about boxing all they can contribute to the discussion is the Mike Tyson days.
Then you have some who were fans of Tyson but have moved on and still watch the sport in large. They keep up with Pacquiao and feather/super/lightweight divisions and they keep up with the Mayweather's and Cotto's to Heavyweight with the Klitschko's and Sam Peter. As long as you aren't stuck on one particular fighter like a Crush-on-a-boyband female, it's all good.Comment

So If you can play the sport yourself....why are you watching it...?
If you are not participating in anyway.. except watching other people play.
Where is the fun in that...Why are you watching it if you are not involved.
What is in it for you..????
And Comparing **** to Sports is completely ******.! And It shows your lack of ability to to compare two things that have Relativity.
You can Compare **** to Movies
You cant compare Sports to **** because their is no sufficient parallels with the two.
Let me use your Logic:
If you like eating, Instead of eating yourself, do you go watch people eat to fulfill your need for Food & eating.
and if you do what would be the purpose of that..?
Like I said before, People would not watch the sport if not for the athletes of the sport.
