    Calzaghe is a ****ing ****. The sport made him rich and a star and he's gonna' go around sayin' **** like that? He may (or may not... depends who you ask) be a great fighter, but if he actually said that **** in an interview, he's a ****ing smarmy ****. Even PBF has more class than that...

    And no boxing ain't ****in' dyin'. I'd wager some points that gross adjusted revenue for the sport is comparable today and 20 years ago and 40 years ago within a few percent. It could be smaller relevant to general media exposed public as there are now more people and more channels on more tv sets and the ****ing internet to boot and a pile of newly popular sports (especially in the US), but BOXING AIN'T ****ING DYING.
