There's very little "pride" left in boxing

[BostonGuy]

Its all business now which is good that the fighters are finally getting paid good money.

But what happened to the "pride" fights?


Damn I miss those days...

Define "pride" fights - heck, give a couple examples

there's very little pride left in the lounge.


all of the dudes from which i demand shirtless either don't post it and call me gay, or tell me they'll "post it later."


i get this image of them starving themselves and working out vigorously to try and make it look like they can hold a candle to my herculean musculature. they obviously cannot.

Hagler-Hearns
Duran-Leonard
Tyson-holyfield
ODLH-Vargas
Trinidad-Vargas


the list goes on and on and on and on and then stopped a couple years ago.


well lara-canelo was a pride fight IMO though...

All of those fights were big bank champ, in fact they were probably bigger money than Lara-Canelo despite the inflation difference.

I don't see this prideful Broner that everyone is talking about... The Maidana fight was a cherrypick gone wrong. He hasn't done anything since to avenge that loss or make up for it.

Khan has more pride... Took on all comers. It's when he is begging for a Mayweather fight that he looks pathetic.

I'm a Khan fan but that is incredibly contradictory.
