Hopefully Many PPV's Were Not Sold

Hagler vs Leonard, wow, just those 2 names together is bigger than any modern match up. They could probably still sell more PPV than Mayweather-PacquiaoTo some of these guys Leonard is lower on the ATG list than pacman. So you can't take them seriously. Those golden era bouts destroy anything we are going to see in the future. Except maybe if May vs Pac happens. Technical skill is so underrated here in the US these days.Comment

Yeah Okay, LOL!!! How ironic that you have that sig of Pac taking steroids and were'nt you one of the guys in here that were and still is very emotionally insistent of Pac taking steroids. NOt to mention how you are also always emotional about degrading Pac and putting Floyd on top.Comment

I would watch these guys talk about boxing in the golden era. I bet they have some epic stories. I would give anything to see prime RJJ again but sadly he ruined his body going up and down divisions. Some guys just do too much.Comment

It is dark, but still lighting.So it really is as dark as it looks on Television, I think that works if you are in the arena but on television it makes the fight look less important or not the mega event its suppose to be. Basically in America, when an arena is dark like that, its a sign that this is just an ESPN or ShoBox level fight. Now these days it doesn't bother me, the ring action is where its at, but it took me a while to adapt to it.
It looks worse on TV.
Boxing fans in the UK can be quite thuggish football hooligans. A lot of small brawls or confrontation can happen so it seems to be hidden.
For example I was at Khan - St claire. Small brawl happened between Pakistani's and Irish guys. Security came in to stop.
Not a word on TV. TV here does not like violence on that level.
I don't mind the darkness. When I shout or say things, I feel hidden, where as if it was bright, maybe I would think twice to say good shot, or go owww that was a great shot etc...
Seating etc can look ugly here. Aswell as the TV teams etc... The US has a much cleaner environment.
I personally prefer the US for TV. Better commentators and they just have the best editing.
One day I would love to go MSG or somewhere though.Comment

The problem with ATG is, that it's a matter fo opinion.
No doubt Hagler, Hearns and Leonard would beat Pac. They were bigger, but skill level is another level IMO.
The day and age of fighters like that won't happen for a while.
Pacman has achieved a lot, has great ability, done a lot for boxing now, but he wouldn't beat them for me. I'm not gonna lie and say I have an ATG list because I just don't know enough, however I do respect Pacman, and believe he is not a cheat as must be up there somewhere.Comment
