As far as I'm concerned Boxing is by far the best, most exciting and interesting sport there's ever been. There's been plenty of great entertaining fights this year and every other year in the past. There's so many great fights that have happened in recent times that I couldn't even name them all here. Even ProBox TV had some great fights recently. People love to view the past with rose-coloured glasses. Every generation eventually gets to the point where they stop growing and lose interest in life and the excitement of new things. Those are the people who claim that things are worse than they used to be...New music sucks, new fighters suck, new technology sucks, new cars suck....Everything old is good, everything new and modern is cheap and second-rate. We're all prone to nostalgia...,but the idea that the past is greater than the present is a delusion of epidemic proportions.Citizen Koba

I remember as a kid sitting down to watch Michael Olajide versus Tommy Hearn's. What a snoozer....there were lots of fights "back in the day" that were tedious.juggernaut666 likes this.

1.4 BILLION people watched it, and were furious how bad it was.
That was a real garbage era too, right?

Look at all the biggest yappers online:
Ryan García? Glass chinned PED user and quitter
Devin Haney? Glass chinned Weight Bully
Tank Davis? fights once a year
Shakur Stevenson? Fighting a literal cab driver in june
I don’t see crawford talking all that **** literally reposting a million pictures of his fight with errol spence, and he’s 1000000000 times the fighter that son of a literal 304 ryan glassia who literally made a devin haney diss track over his mid af win, where the knockdowns literally saved him.
