    I've seen posters just today claim if their favorite fighter retires they won't be around as much.

    And when I said Boxing > RJ... I'm pretty sure I answered your question, son.
    Anybody who has to "adapt" because their favourite boxer retires isn't a fan of boxing IMO, they are just a fanboy. If I had to list my favourite fighters, it would be a very long list. To worship one man and to say that you'd lose interest in the sport if he retired is pathetic.

        He did, and to be honest.. for the first four rounds I was like.... uh oh.

          What you think about Omar Henry?

                I watch as many fights as I can, I even watch the amateurs when they have their tournaments. It is good to follow boxers cause part of the big fights is the build up and the journey to get their. There is always fights that make a star so there is always a boxer in the mix the will get more attention than others

                  I'd adapt. I typically like fighters early in their career when they're hungry.
