Comments Thread For: BoxingScene Roundtable: What do you want to see less of in 2025?

[Elheath]

What I want to see less of? Lets see...

• Fighters still in their prime waiting longer than 6 month between fights barring legit injuries.
• Fighters complaining about being ducked but not accepting a good fight offer when given.
• Unpopular/undeserving fighters demanding A-side treatment and money.
• Overpriced PPV with underwhelming cards.

Boxing has been run into the ground. Turki is just the latest guy feeding at the trough. He’s literally the only guy who is able to meet the purse demands of these prima donna boxers. Todays boxers all think they generate Floyd/PAC money and interest. It’s a literal gutter sport. Why are these writers pretending boxing has a shred of decency? Boxing had dictators financing fights back in the 70s. Who’s going to save boxing in the “civilized” world? Arum? De la Hoya? Al Harmon? Eddie fricken Hearn? Don King? These were the guys who ran it into the ground in the first place with their $80 PPVs. Lol all these writers pretending boxing is above Saudi influence.

Big boxing nights belong in USA and UK, with the occasional venture elsewhere. It it stays this way long term with His Excellency and Saudi Arabia, I don't think it's a good direction for Boxing to Beheading. Nash out - His Majesty

"Latin Night" in Arabia when it corresponded to Los Angeles. Lance Pugmire hypocrite. Perhaps this change of location affects your interests. Turkis has done more for boxing than anyone in a long time. You don't like Latin night in Arabia but you do in Los Angeles. Hey, Los Angeles is not Latin America. Do fans from the United States and Great Britain not attend events in Saudi Arabia? Latinos from Mexico to Argentina also don't go to Los Angeles to see "Latin Night."
Over time, boxing fans in Saudi Arabia will grow.
That Latin America does not have the economy to hold these types of events? Okay, okay, so Los Angeles is no longer the highest paying place. Now it's Saudi Arabia. Stop crying. zz0.yh486a2z9aazz

On here, less AI censorship and ad hominem nonsense.

In boxing, less corruption (I know, never gonna happen) and more judges required to explain their cards. Could get back to same day weigh-ins too.
