Greatest tradition in boxing?

[dans]

What is the greatest tradition in boxing? I'm not talking tradition in terms of Mexican fighters and other ethnicities, I'm talking about the sport itself. I'll start.

To me the greatest tradition in boxing is ring girls. With all the technology and advancement of women in society, boxing still finds it necessary to make us aware of the round by giving a big card to a trashy women in a bikini and high heels. I wouldn't want it any other way.

Definitely. It's going to be sad when Buffer is gone. He will be missed more than anyone.

Another good one is the bell. All other sports us buzzers while boxing sticks with the hand rung bell, awesome.

These are the best. He always compares a fight or fighter to like a statue or a section of a city, it's hilarious. I have no idea how he thinks of that stuff.

Classic sayings are also another favorite of mine.

"You know what they say, never hook with a hooker!"

Walk in music for fighters, although most have ****ty generic dance or rap songs. When a fighter walks out to a good song i love it.

Entrance music is strange to me. Fighters seem to pick the strangest songs. Most of the songs wouldn't even pump me up.

At least Tyson used to walk out to DMX.

To me, boxing's greatest tradition is the good ol fashioned "rivalry".

Nothing sells a fight faster than 2 monsters that genuinely hate each other with a passion, and we get to see the culmination of that hatred in the ring. MMA has yet to offer that kinda of theatrics as mma fighters seem to have too much respect for each other
