Comments Thread For: “Fighting Words” - The 6 Hurt Most by Boxing's Cold War

[oneon11]

Funny how casual boxing fans buy into the cold war messing up good fights. If you're a fan of the sport then the fights that are being made should be good enough. The problem is casual fans think just because they want to see a particular fight and it doesn't get made its this person or that network fault. In boxing there's always a good fight to be seen if you enjoy watching the sweet science. But casual fans want knock outs or they feel cheated. If their guy doesn't win because judges score what the see an not what they hear from some bias commentators they start crying about robbery. The sport of boxing is just fine and true fans are satisfied with what is being offered. Any thinking otherwise should just not wAtch and focus on MMA the bar room brawler of hand to hand combat. ......

really? are you serious? I'm not saying boxing is dead but a business and isn't a sport anymore bro. We as fans should voice our opinions by not tuning in to POS fights or ordering PPVs. Im a huge boxing fan that wants to see the best fight the best. Eventually top rank and golden boy are gonna run out of fights bcuz all they do is in house fights. DO you seriously want to see pacman marquez 5? all this is about is money and greed!! they'd rather keep most of the profits for themselves and not split it with another promoter. its all greed man. 2013 was a great year but were already in april and still haven't seen a great fight on either showtime or hbo. actually only good fight I've seen thus far was chavez vs vera 2.
