I became a hardcore boxing fan in late 2006. Since then, I have watched every fight I can, and always kept up with the latest news. Watching/following boxing is one of my main hobbies.
BUT I never watch old fights. I have never seen a full Robinson, Ali, Leonard, Whitaker etc. fight. The reason is that I simply can't watch spoiled fights. Knowing the result takes almost all the fun out of it for me.
And I don't give a rat's a.ss how Floyd, Manny or any other active boxer rates historically. I only care about who is the best NOW.
Does that make me less of a boxing fan than you?
I'd say it does make you less of a fan, and not by a small amount.
That doesn't mean you aren't a big boxing fan though.
