    Do you think there will ever be a 'dead' period in boxing??

    One era (a decade or so) where there are no stars, no up-and-comers, no loud mouths, no pretty boys, no real champions deserving of their status, or no real boxing talents??

    And fans will completely switch off.

    I know over the years one division at a time has suffered from not having any stars i.e the heavyweights after Tyson faded.

    I'm talking about every division being void of anything worth watching......

    Will the time ever come??

        People will always be attracted to fights. It's just in them. Whether it be boxing, MMA or something else, people will always want to watch a good fight.

            I think if that had happened, it would have some time in the last 20 years. Since Tyson became irrelevant boxing doesn't get near the coverage it used to yet it is still doing fine, and their will always be stars at the lower weights to keep it afloat.

              Never. There just aren't as many heavyweights now cause they are off doing other sports that doesn't require having your face punched in
