      Like most athletic endeavours at its core, boxing should be about the sport. The best men fighting the best opposition. But as with everything in the world, it is a business first.

              Like another thread asked, where can you find a sport where you can pick and choose your opponent?

              Of course, it's not a sport. It's entertainment.

                Every single sport is entertainment. I guess I’m missing all the smart guys logic here.

                  It's become a bit of a circus as well.
