Comments Thread For: Hall of Fame Promoter Jackie Kallen on Modern Boxing

Jackie did what so many men could not
Kudos to her

Fans worship too much and defend nonsense too much. They mark wins over completely washed former champs as badges of honor. Canelo has six notable worthy fights in 60, and that’s boxing’s best resume. Three of which are against one opponent…Meanwhile Floyd and manny are the last ones with credible resumes. We’ve normalized no hope fights and paint them as more than the trash they are.

She says theres less boxing now. She is out of the loop. There is more boxing on now than there has ever been on since I've been alive. They show full cards on ESPN+ & DAZN all the time. I have a pet peeve with PBC cuz they don't show full cards lol.

I kinda doubt even when boxing was on during the 3 channel era that there was more boxing on than now. Granted it was more widely seen, but with how things have moved boxing was always gonna get smaller. Plenty of blame for that.

On tv, yes. Overall no, little shows are hard to finance these days. Way less audience watching the amateurs too.

And she had some big balls to go with that title
I can’t recall where I saw it but there’s a great documentary about all she did and what she endured to make it in a male dominant business

Not a real doctor, but a guy who went by the name Doc. The one who was at Galaxy was kind of short, had glasses I believe, a black guy. A little on the heavy side? This was over 30 years ago doe...................Rockin'
