    Anyone else feel boxing might actually be dying this time?

    I am seeing absolutely no one of not coming up.

    You've got guys like Gervonta Davis fight youtubers. Its really really grim out there guys. Who will take the reigns when Usyk and Crawford retire?

      Ain't that a boxing match? lol. So in all honesty, boxing is getting bigger since it's now branching out, you have pro boxers fighting against youtuber turn pro. Lots of folks will tune in to watch it whether yall agree with the fight or not.

        boxing will always survive because punching each other in the face is the purest form of combat

        drama queen jabronis always come out every couple of years is boxing dying

        boxing has continued on multiple times after the departure of fighters who were VASTLY SUPERIOR to TBud and Usyk lol like Sugar Leonard and Floyd

        TBud is top 25, Usyk is top 50, Sugar Leonard top 10, and Floyd top 11

        the sport of boxing has kept going on after the drawdowns from top 10 and top 11 riding off

        a top 25 and top 50 will give it dying drawdowns? GTFOH

          Itauma, Dubois, Shakur, Haney, Boots, Ortiz jr, Benavidez, Teo, Ryan, Torrez, Mason, Shu Shu, Zayas, Hitchins, Anderson, Whittaker etc are all in their 20s, Moton is still a teenager.

          Besides, there are always going to be people out there who want to watch a fist fight. No need to worry imo.

            as long as Biblical Moses stays disciplined he can carry boxing for a long time

              I feel the same way. Every other time it was said, we had a star waiting to takeover. This time after Canelo retires, who's the star?

                What are you actually looking for Boxing to do to convince you that it's thriving? A super fight every month? Homegrown household names like Basketball and Football have (only) inside the United States and Soccer and Cricket produce (only) outside of the United States?


                Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua, Teofimo Lopez vs Ryan Garcia, Gervanta Davis vs Shakur Stevenson, Terrence Bud Crawford vs Jermell Charlo and Oleksandr Usyk vs Moses Itauma may all be in the pipeline for huge events, and Itauma seeks to end one of the biggest and best heavyweight eras since the 1970s.


                The Popo Freitas schooling of MMA legend Wanderlei Silva was the most watched combat sports event in Brazil in 2025. The Crawford - Canelo fight drew 50 Million live views.


                Naoya Inoue vs. Junto Nakatani talk is lighting up Japan like no other sport mentioned can.


                Zhilei Zhang is the most popular active professional athlete in China.


                You'll know when Boxing is dead because Baseball, Soccer, Rugby, Basketball, Hockey, Tennis, American Football, Cricket and Formula One will have already disappeared generations before.


                Stop whining.

                    maybe brains when they think a sport is dying is a result of the persons interest in the sport which is fading or dying

                    what makes people usually more interested in sport? maybe when people or teams they like are winning stuff idk
