    Be honest, being a boxing fan is really frustrating these days

    No Usyk -Fury announcement yet, we can only dream Crawford -Spence, no Bivol - Beterbiev, no Haney - Lomachenko or Haney - Davis...We can`t even get something like Jermall Charlo - Benavidez or Charlo -Andrade. We can`t even get Canelo - Benavidez. Very sad times for the sport.

    it's similar to the WBC/WBA Arum-King unification wars that happened in the early 80s. The money will dry up, then they will be forced to make the big fights.....like what occurred in the late 80s and 90s.

      yeah its mad, the list of pending fights is growing by the week, not sure whats up with loma haney, suspect loma may be asking for too much cash but could be wrong, thought fury usyk would be done in a flash but still hopeful

            It is. The storylines are poor right now and so little happening/being made official. Nash out

              Tough times indeed. Can't wait for this period to be over and we get a fresh crop of fighters that need to stay active and fight the best on a regular basis.

                As soon as fighter purses get cut we will get the fights we want because fighters will have to fight the best to make the big bucks. No more cherry picks for several million those days are gone

                  I’m not sure I’d get interested in boxing if I was a kid today

                    It's gotten hard to make superfights these days.
