      Boxings popularity relies on the fact there isnt another sport like it.

      Vilolence, one punch KO's, the drama and brutality.

      The big personalities add to the attraction, but if they were'nt great fighters, they wouldnt be a draw.

        Yes, I find it hard to think of any boxers that were not gifted and still mouthed.
