    Bottom line is people want a quality product. The problem with boxing is, you get one big named fight and the undercard is trash most of the time.

    Boxing fans are sick of this **** and I hope Golden Boy changes this. The days of Arum and King are almost over and when they are, I think we see a much better product in boxing.
    Agreed 100%. People seem to be wary of Golden Boy taking control over boxing, but I only see it as a positive.

      UFC fans get more **** for thier buck than us boxing fans do. In boxing, you usually get 2-3 ****ty undercard fights, and 1 main event. In UFC, thier fans get 6-7 fights cards, in which 3 are championship fights. Gotta give it up to UFC. They cater to thier fans.

        Boxing is arguably more popular than its been in the last 15ish years. PPV sales have been high and set records. ESPN has covered boxing lately more than I can ever remember it covering it. We get better fights now and even the Hatton/Pac PPV was great. The sport is doing well. I have seen ESPN talk about July 18th many times, havent seen them mention even once about July 11th.

            Boxing will never die... it has always been exciting... for over 100 years, no matter what... as long as us Boxing fans are still here... Boxing will never die.

            After Robinson, it was still exciting, same with Ali, Leonard, Duran, Hearns, Hagler, Tyson, Foreman... whatever... and I think it will carry on after Mayweather and Pacquiao retire and it will still be extremely exciting.

              One card should have...

              Hopkins Vs. Calzaghe II
              J.Taylor Vs. P.Williams
              Judah Vs. R.Hatton
              Mosely Vs. Cotto
              Pacman Vs. PBF {Main Event}

              The undercard matches can be switched, but have PBF Vs. Pacman as main event

                but Lyoto and Silva are 2 of the most exciting UFC fighters period!

                Didnt you just see last weeks clash?

                How could you say the fans were not going crazy...
                Fans were booing the fight last week in the first round.
