Why do the Flyweights get no respect?

[Box-Office]

Why is it so rare to have fighters below Bantamweight get exposure on States side networks. Those guys do put up good fights though.

Why?

Seriously, no one?

It's the name I think. Lol in MMA, the flyweights get no respect either. And they fight at 125. In boxing they're smaller but it's still the same problem.

You have Ricardo Lopez who retired 51-0 and a two weight world champion. Although he got time on States side tv channels he barely gets talked about as an ATG. Amazing skills.

1) 22 defenses of Minimum weight title
2) 2 for Light Flyweight

Then you have Omar Narvaez who has been a world champion before the decline of Rome.

These guys put up exciting fights. I guess we might need a star from an English speaking country like Hamed with Featherweight to really transcend it to mainstream.

Because I drop deuces that weigh more than them.

Or may be Canelo's snake.

The point for casuals is exciting fights and these guys do put up good ones.

Because people want to see dangerous punchers cause as much destruction as possible.

That's what the mainstream pays for.

A guy that weighs as much as a girl is just not going to sell as much as someone who can lift you up and throw you across the room.

boxers that are the same size of a girls in 10th grade.

Vic Darchinyan ? Donaire when he was down there.

It's not flyweights vs featherweights. They are fighting dudes of their own size and are able to punch.
