Wow, thanks for the great breakdown.
Not boxing dying, no. Too embedded to be that susceptible to impasses in the market architecture for any length of time.The free market always finds or invents new distribution avenues. Reference was to an historically fickle public's attraction to newer, fiscally sound but less culturally grounded subsets of prizefighting like the brilliantly marketed MMA; with the popularity of the inclusion of scientific ground game today vs. The competing rise of open rules Standup (Bare-knuckle, Hybrid experiments, and the potential for a generational shift in taste similar to that which drove Catch under, replaced with worked match sports entertainment by 1918, as Boxing went about it's merry way unaffected. Everything except Baseball, American football, Basketball, Football/Soccer, Rugby, Cricket and class sports Tennis and Golf are "niche" sports; But none have ever produced a Muhammad Ali. I think there sports are safe, even as each experience highs and lows.
Definitely clarified thanks!Comment
