    It's always been a point of discussion. It's just more noticeable with the internet.

    There's an old article I read from the 1970s talking about boxing's long absence and return to network TV which makes the point, "Boxing promoters use numbers like seducers use promises." Numbers have always been a big part of boxing culture for better or worse and so it washes down onto the fan base.

              Theyre networks not fighters. Reach into that mattress of yours and pull out $10 for a month of showtime so you can have both and be one of those viewers

                Why would I pay $10 a month when they aren't putting out fights?

                They need to pay me $10 a month to watch a snoozefest like Bhop vs Murat

                  Damn an HBO fanboy!

                  Its $10 for a sport you supposedly love but i guess the love is only for HBO

                    There are plenty of streams available for the rare SHO fight thats worth it (Figueroa, Soto Karass)

                    If you only buy SHO for boxing than you just got screwed out of $10 bucks.

                      Exciting fighter and a good bloke coming off two FOTY contenders. Can't be that hard to figure out surely?
