How many of your friends/buddies are actually into boxing?

[Warrior Spirit]

Okay I'm asking this question because none of my friends are into boxing at all, except for my brother. I have 2 buddies who were what I call "fight fans" meaning that they are just into mega fights(Tyson,DLH,Jones Jr.,etc.)and thats it. Myself and my brother are the only person I know who are passionatley into boxing. It sucks because I can't really discuss boxing with anybody except my bro like I can with my buddies about other sports.

How many friends/buddies are into boxing like you??

I'm in the same boat as you. The only other people I know who like boxing are my dad and my grandfather.

It sucks doesn't it? After a great fight, you wanna talk about it with someone who actually understands what has just happened, and you can't.

I guess I'm lucky. My roomate is a die hard fan so we discuss and watch the fights together. My grandfather is also a big fight fan. Try asking people where you work you may find a fan you wouldn't expect.

I am the only one who is into the sport, none of my friends understand the sport, and they piss me off when they give ****** comments about me being into boxing...

as much or more than me only my dad,1 friend, and my other friend's dad.

Yeah, only my MOM and dad. I think part of the problem is it doesent get as much air-time as the other big sports. (football/baseball/basketball)

I have only my father-in-law. Former fighter and coach. Decent achievments, great experience and knowledge. Good to watch boxing with him.

Only one of my mates is into boxing, but he lives on the other side of the country now. Nobody else knows anything. A couple have probably heard of Klitschko, but that's about as far as their knowledge goes.

I haven`t any friends who are into Boxing. And like many others here, my father likes it a bit but i don`t have any friends who are IN to boxing. Its not a mainstream sport you know, boxing fans are a small community. But i appreciate a site like this one that boxing fans can get together and debate!
