How many part-time boxers this sport now have?

[al-Xander]

there are 365 days in a year. Every mf thinking they are a headliner. 2 things need to happen.

1. Stop making Saturday the exclusive day for fights when in history, some of the biggest fights ever were on weekdays
2. Start putting multiple big fights on the same card. Plant vs Benavidez in any other era would be the 2nd fight on a 6 fight card. get this bs out of here..

Friday Night Fights should be resurrected. I feel more in tune and very focused during these hours because the next day is Saturday, which is another bonus day for fights, if there is one.

Easy answer , every boxer from this era
Fighting once a year , to me that’s a part time fighter

ESPN should really bring FNF back after thier failed venture with PBC.After a long week of work and family obligations there was nothing like getting home just in time on Friday evening to crack open a beer and watch some boxing. Teddy n Joe made a great duo as well,met both on one of FNF cards held here in socal.

promoters should start back making big fights during the week. Some younger boxing fans said they woulnd't go to big fights if they weren't on saturday hahaha. I had to remind them that Al vs Fraizer I, Tyson vs Spinks, and Hagler vs Hearns were ALL on a monday. People can watch Football on sunday and monday nights, but can't watch boxing? why not??? Every dumbazz promoter is fighting for saturday dates when there are 6 other days in the week no one touches in America.

So far Berlanga is the first to complain about being "slowed down" or not keeping him active. Any guess about who you think the next one to bark?

Oh, by the way, Broner was the first, not Berlanga.

I wish fighters were more active, but Network/promoter/advisor issues along with unreasonable purse demands are killing our sport.

I agree. Ted Atlas always bring excitement to the sport, although I don't always agree with what he says.

all of them are. When you work twice a year and it's called "active" you are a part time fighter. That's why guys are fighting into their 40s. They haven't done **** in their 20s and 30s.

Many of them are fighting once a year now. You're right, fighting 2x a year is considered active nowadays.
