Are Boring American Fighters Killing the Sport?

[MalikKnucklez]

One up and coming American fighter I enjoy seeing fight though Peter Quilin.

I really like watchin Quillin. But i hope the Winky fight will open some doors for him to fight some promising middleweights (of which there are a few) that are willing to mix it up with him for an extended period of time.

The majority of his opponents haven't made it past the first 4 rounds (a good portion of them haven't even made it out the 1st), so the verdict is still out on him.

There's really None american fighters captivating the audience right now.....Khan,Gamboa,Martinez,JMM,Pac,Maidana,Salid o,Lara are all the ones people get excited to watch not the aforementioned fighters i listed

How is Khan any more exciting than Peterson? JMM isn't that exciting of a fighter, he's just a supreme boxer. How is his style any more exciting than Floyd Mayweather? Maidana didn't look very exciting in his recent fights and Salido is a punching bag, not too exciting. I'll give you Gamboa, Lara, and Martinez but for every Gamboa theres a Gary Russel in the wings. Martinez and Lara are exciting but they are highly regarded fighters and treated as such. How about all the boring fighters from all over the world?

Theres exciting fighters and boring fighters from America. Just like there is elite fighters from other nations that are boring as ***. Call me crazy but I'm never going to be dying to see a Klitchko fight.

I guess it just depends what you like. I don't like Hopkins or really Alexander but watching Mayweather, Ward, and Dawson is pretty damn exciting to me. It's always enjoyable to see someone master the craft of boxing. I don't need kayos to enjoy the sport.

Mayweather Ward and Dawson, Exciting?

You may enjoy their style but excitement comes from something being unpredictable and with those 3 you know what going to happen and it very much likely to end in a UD.

C'mon who doesn't like KOs


I like fighters that put it all on the line, who can be flamboyant in the ring, not out of it, to take risks.

Quilian spent like his whole life in Michigan. He might have Cuban decent but he def an American. What is your feeling about Robert Guerrero? Another top American fighter that I doubt very few would consider boring.

Guerrero is an excellent fighter but he MAKES fights boring when he has his foe ready to go he easy's up and just's goes on cruise control like his fight with katsidis and casamayor

Yeah, "The Kid Chocolate" seems like a real talent, great to watch throws the big punches, lead uppercuts and hooks, nice combos.

Interesting to see him against Winky, but Winky is a shell of the fighter he once was, but it should still prove a test though.

I find it exciting because their raw talent is so good that they can just press their will through their boxing skills. They don't have to go head first and swing like a ****** like an Orlando Salido. Nothing against brawlers but I find it pretty pathetic and that's why the only Mexican I've really enjoy recent is JMM.

Another fighter that loves to stay behind his jab, good fighter, talks too much though, but not a entertainer.
