    I would hate to be a US boxing fan!

    Now im not saying that the US isn't great. Because it obviously is with producing classy fighters.

    But US fans tend to disregard boxing to a point, where they don't watch any fights in Europe, Oceania and Asia. Always limited to whats put in front of them, which in a majority of cases is the best, however in a lot of cases the best is overseas, which isn't seen.

    But for European and other boxing fans. The best which is sometimes in front of them is watched. On top of the best which is also in the US.

    What im trying to get at is, European fans and Asian fans in some circumstances, watch the best quality boxing.

      i agree with you i think US fight fans have reallygotten thir teeth into MMA and UFS as well so alot of people now just have a passing interest in boxing. they watch the ig fights and what not but they aren't really into it.

      alot of european fans do have the benefits of being able to watch the best from europe but also manage to get to watch the best from the US - thank god for the internet!!

        Unless its a major fight, overseas fights are rarely shown here in the states.

            With the advent of streams from Europe (Germany, UK, etc) I am able to see numerous European fights in the afternoon and the normal HBO/Showtime fights in the evening.

            I've been looking for a streaming site for Asia for quite a while, so if you know of any (PI, Thailand, Japan) please let me know.

            Thanks,

                  I even watch his Vegas undercards.
                  Audley represents the common man. All kinds of talent but scared to do something with his life.
                  There is a little of Audley in all of us. That's what makes him so compelling.
                  And plus, he's a southpaw, I have to like him.
                  Because of that rule, I even have to like Cory Spinks....
