Why is losing once so horrible in the sport of boxing?

[Cypocryphy]

Boxing fans are the most ****** fans in the entire sports industry. That's why.

I used to think that but I have changed my mind on that one. Football (soccer) fans are the worst, bar none. The amount of ridiculous ******ity and level of toxicity knows no bounds.

Football is good alternative. Especially fans of tap-in poacher players like CR7, Haaland, Lewa are the worst.

But, I gonna rank boxing as #1 in terms of ******ity. Then, football and MMA.

Yeah. I can agree to that, especially with how tribal boxing is. There's a presumption of prejudice with every disagreement. That's the one thing I don't like about boxing, how tribal it is for people.

I think a loss is worse now in this era because of social media. Boxing fans s*** on fighters when they have 1 bad performance not even loss.

Loses will give you unwanted layoffs stretching to a year or more.

Probably because it takes ages to setup fights in boxing. There are tens and tens of fighters, if not hundreds. One fighter seems to have only one chance to last longer. Even if he wins, his next fight might be next year let alone if he loses.

Haven't explored the differences even though it looks clear because MMA and UFC are almost seen weekly and the main card is not the only focus of what the audience is waiting for.

The other sport I follow is tennis. It's not called a loss in tennis. Other players just didn't make it in the next and succeeding rounds that lead to the final. But I see the same personalities, players in the next Open, tournament, etc.

Fighters who lost their last fight should be allowed to fight outside of their promotional home base if they can't get anymore fights. There's Don King's, BLK, Fite, etc.

What has happened to that guy Edwin De Los Santos? He was a last minute replacement for future prospect Jose Valenzuela and Edwin beat him like Jose was the challenger.

In this case De Los Santos won, yet he disappeared and never seen again. What's more if he lost?

It's the single reason why many fighters are now fighting less often. They're afraid to lose.

I see that De Los Santos is co-feature in the Ennis vs Villa card. Almost a year since his big win.

It's not a real sport; it's no different from street fighting

You have obviously never boxed a day in your in life.

Boxing is just about the most demanding sport, in life style, training and performing.

You should try it, you're skewed opinion of the sport would turn a 180' in the first round that you spar. Or the first morning that you must wake up at 4 or 5am to do your roadwork before you go to school or work. Or sitting at the table, during a Thanksgiving celebration, knowing that you have to make weight just a couple of days later for an official bout. Etc...........

Another know nothin'...............Rockin'
