Only three boxers have been entertaining and fun to watch: Crawford, Usyk, and Loma. Everyone else either cherry picks or just flat out sucks
    If you think only 3 guys are fun to watch you are a casual fan or dksab. Maybe both.

      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.

        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.
        Most of Alis fights were absolute trash too. 15 round jab and hug contests. The veneration of the past needs to stop its not like these guys were more exciting.

              That was a real garbage era too, right?
              You are comparing a famous boxer fighting an exhibition to a content creator who is fighting retired a fighters and 50 year old senior citizens and claiming he’s the face of boxing, WHILE MAKING REAL MONEY OFF IT.

                Fury - Usyk was a great fight.
                This is the only fight i actually enjoyed watching. The other being spence crawford last year. Every other fight was a mismatch or outright ass.

                  These are the only three guys fighting the most. They also are the ones who unironically yap the least.

                  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.

                    Further proof you are a casual or dksab. Artem is an Olympic bronze medalist.

                      LMAO bros accusing of not knowing **** about boxing but then goes on to claim olympic medals as significant to professional boxing ☠️. Y’all are the same people to claim Mike Tyson’s win against Tyrell Biggs, An Olympic gold medalist, was a bummy victory.
