A tough question but what I can say is, I did watching boxing as a young un. I remember watching Collins, Eubank, Benn, Calzaghe, Hamed, Bruno, Lewis, Tyson, as a kid. My grandad use to box, and absolutely loved the sport - he lived to fight. I rememeber he'd say 'you wanna box? I'll teach you a few things' He use to let me hit him in the stomach and say 'that's made of steal grandson' (lol). As a kid I use to stay round my grand parents house when I was a little boy, on the weekends boxing would usually be on ITV, so we'd all sit round the TV and watch the fights.
As I grew, I sort of grew away from boxing a little bit. Then around 18-19 Amir Khan appeared on ITV, I started taking interest in the sport, and soon become deeply passionate about boxing. And now I even box, something as a kid I'd never dreamed of doing (it's funny how your attitude can change as you age).
I am now what some would say a 'fanatic'. I tune into nearly every fight. I'd even rather stay in on a saturday night and grab a pizza, and watch boxing instead of going out!
