Dying? No, suffering because of lack of effective leadership and organisation yes.

Where? It's on a breathing tube in the U.S. I'm sure that it's one of the most popular sports in the Philippines.

The problem with boxing is the fans or majority of them who pay to much attention to the crybaby superstars in floyd & Pacman!!Look at the **** those 2 cry about,Mosley offered to fight them both,I know he would no matter what golden boy & Arum are crying about!!The fans need to put their support behind fighters that wanna fight like the Punisher & Mosley & Froch,even Vitali who amazingly fought twice in the span of 4 months or so!!

As much as I hate to say it its suffering a lot. When mayweather, cotto, pacquiao, mosley are gone I don't know who's going to take over mainstream boxing. There's some young talent out there but they arnt popular that much so pay per views for boxing are going to go down. That's my opinion though

Boxing has been dying since 1913 according to a LA times Article, it will contunue to be dying even after we die. You can count on that.

its been dead for years but it gains some life and momentum with big fights that happen. afterwards it dies again. a good example of this is the momentum that was gained in the last 6 months of 2009 with the return of floyd and the pac/cotto fight. but now its been killed by pacgwire and the rest of the greedy cowards who let the biggest fight in years die over blood.
