Comments Thread For: Time For Boxing To Take Itself Seriously

[Oldskoolg]

all the best fighters are in the ufc and everyone knows it. michael chandler for years was trying to get to ufc. no one is calling for a fight between a ufc champ and anyone from one of those other promos. maybe they did years ago, when fedor was in a different one, but not anymore. Don't rationalize this sport. It's broken.

Kamaru Usman would be an avoided fighter that would never get a chance if he were in boxing.

I wasn’t inferring to whixh promotions had the best talent, just that there are many with their own champions. I just watched Chris Cyborg defend her title last weekend on Showtime via Bellator.....

So because the actions of a few, boxing needs to take itself "seriously". Here in the states, I think people could really give 2 sh*** if Fury and Joshua ever fight, I mean if they do, I'll watch, only for free, not PPV, and I don't see many fans coughing up the cash for PPV, some hardcores will, but not much, Fury vs Wilder is interesting for sure, but again, life will go on if they don't. The lighter weight divisions are carrying the sport, of course it's always good when the big men are in the mix, but boxing will go on, just how it has for the past 150+ years, last time I checked, boxing was breaking records left and right without the heavyweights.....

Boxing needs to do something about Kenny "I'll give ya twenny seconds" Bayliss. He's even worse than Terry O'Connor ffs. Even sweeter when you beat the system.

Think it's a little too late for that.

who cares if they have their own champs? bellator and others operate like the minor leagues. you know minor league baseball has a world series too.

you're missing the point.

I used your own words and logic.
Speaking of what the records say, what does the record say about Floyd-Castillo, Pscar-Sturm, Tito-Oscar, PAC-Marquez, etc?
People ruminate on controversial decisions all the time.
I know you have selective amnesia but it can take me 10 minutes to dig up posts where you’ve done exactly that.
Back to my question, once Fury destroys Wilder and then beats AK (hopefully by KO), will you still call him a bum? This is a simple YES or NO question.

Well lets start the digging....LOL....you have to be a complete idiot....I know its getting to you to have someone call you out for being the moron that you are but it is what it is.....and YES!!!! emphatically YES I'll call fury a damn bum if he stops wilder again because that's exactly what he is.....why do you morons set the bar so low for your "great fighters"? Who are the GREAT fighters that Deontay Wilder has fought???? Lol....spend the next day or 2 trying to figure that out ya muppet....That's why most UK fighters couldn't make it 6 months in the US before they've drowned.

Now go and look for those posts you idiot....and tell me how many posts you find where I DIDN'T call Deontay Wilder a BUM....once again...you are a huge idiot...Lol

You just have to go that ****** route of trying to prove you’re the badass MoFo from the hood that craves attention and demands respect, by calling me names instead of engaging in a debate however volatile. I’ll get back to that later.
Fury is 30 years old. Pretty young in today’s boxing standard. To give you perspective, Floyd didn’t hit his pinnacle until he was in his 30’s, same with Andre Ward, RJ, PAC, and even Oscar. This means Fury has 5 years, give or take to make a mark for himself. Beating Wilder does not guarantee him enshrinement in Canastota. No one is arguing that.

Unfortunately for Fury, the HW division isn’t exactly stacked with talent so he’ll be an overachiever in a weak era. It’s not his fault. If Fury retires after beating AJ and Wilder, he still doesn’t deserve to be in the hall of fame nor should he be talked about in the same breath as Tyson or Lewis or Ali guys. Again, we know that. We don’t need a basement dwelling, anus licking, ***** loving Neanderthal like you thumping the usual “know it all” mantra when nobody has put Fury on a pedestal in the context of great career run.
Fury maybe a bum but he has beaten Wilder, will beat him again, will beat AJ and most likely beat the next top 8 opponents on the HW landscape. He could be a bum in the company of bums. It’s not his fault if he comes out of that lot as the best.

Now, just a yes or no question YET again, what is your level of education, did you even finish high school?

[aaronbnb]

No, you’re missing mine. I don’t care what your point is.

yes your point is there are multiple MMA organizations, each with their own champ, and I'm saying that is irrelevant, UFC is 100x bigger. Even within PBC or Top Rank which are very small, there is no league.

Time for boxers to stop signing rematch clauses and then fans/media complain about it when the rematch clause happens.
