Boxing has slipped down the pecking order in recent years, and one thing is certain, the boxing dominion has contributed to its own downfall. You have to love this sport of ours you really do, and you can not blame sports fans who ignore it. In football for example, Chelsea are currently the best team in England as they are top of the league, or in Tennis, Roger Federer is the best, most consistent player as he is No.1 ranked.
Sport is all about rivalries and desires to be the best, and for the public to truly get into the drama, they have to know what’s what. An uninitiated fan may be believe Ricky Hatton is the worlds best light welterweight, or even more alarmingly that Clinton Woods is the best light heavyweight in the World. Glencoffe Johnson and Antonio Tarver should not have to relinquish there world titles to decide who is the world's best!
In my opinion of course, Boxing is the most intrinsically fascinated sport there is. If you walk down the street and two people are kicking a football around, and then two people start throwing punches at each other you can guarantee where the crowd will be. However crude this assessment might be, there is no purer form of sport than boxing, sadly though, none so brutal. [details]
