Some of the dumb a$$ fans are on here at it again. Acting like offense is the only part of boxing.

      I will say it again DUMB A$$ fans are hurting boxing. But nothing will ever kill the sweet science.
      See, I despair of comments like this. Every time Ward stinks the place out, the 'slick pure boxer sweet science slickster' brigade, basically the boxing fan equivalent of hipsters, have to try and tell everyone that doesnt like the fact that they have been bored to tears that they're not real fans because they cant appreciate what has just fooking bored them. GTFOH with that corny ****! I have been involved in the sport and have been a fan of the sport for over 30 years and dont need some snotty nosed, thick as pig**** eejit trying to tell me that a turd is really a golden nugget. It isnt. Its a turd no matter how much you try and polish it.

        ALL were exciting to watch. Brought fans many good exciting fights. Boring fighters SUCK. and unfortunately for marketing reasons and corruption as well as no unbiased Ranking system to believe in...we have 1 & 2 best p4p on the top of the list being the most boring fighters out there. Despite who they fight the quality of opponent the mismatches and hand picked fights...they remain a top guy. lol The guys i mentioned above and some i didnt will always be remembered. Boring fighters die off. Nobody remembers them. No good memories that is!

          See, in this case boxing should have died out LONG AGO??

          Im guessing alot of you grew up on Rocky movies????
          Boxing has always had the slick, defensive fighters, and some fights have always been snooze fest, even during the HW era.

If you do actually attend fightcards(which I very much doubt) then try paying attention. You might actually learn something, I doubt it, but seeing as your there its gotta be worth a shot.
            Clownshoe ???!!I'm in the States your not end of story!

                Great points. I like seeing skills more than face first, unskilled brawls. Boxing is not a street fight, it's an art.

                  Where the **** did that come from? Typical cowardly floyd spastic. The fanbase universally regarded on here as the dimmest and the most racist.

                  As for the rest of your crappy post. It wouldnt really matter whether I had never set foot in a gym or gone to a fight card, fans of the sport(not fans of individual fighters or in your case, fans that back fighters because of their ethnicity) generally have working eyes and learn as they watch and grow their interest in the sport. As it happens, I boxed extensively as a kid and also represented my regiment 12 times whilst serving in the army. I still also train(though cant fight because of injury at the moment) to keep in shape and help and support the other lads in my gym. We have both an amateur and professional set up across 3 different sites and even have one of our juniors representing England in Russia at the moment.

                  You're a prize prick, my race baiting little derpling.

                    yes it's so skilled to jump into your opponent shoulder first like you are playing football. DA SWEET SCIENCE!
