    if your a hardcore boxing fan then how are you losing interest in the sport?

    tons of great fights happens.

    Anyways, fans need to stop supporting these match ups if they think they are crap. With current stream quality there's no need to buy PPV or subscribe to HBO/SHO for boxing unless you are satisfied with what they're giving you
    o really what was it then?

    for him to claim he a hardcore boxing fan but he losing interest in the sport lol, seems legit.

        Blame Bob Arum, the liar, thief and greedy boxing criminal.

        Fights that did not happen because of Bob Arum:

        Prime DLH vs Mayweather
        Prime Gamboa vs Lopez
        Mayweather vs Pacquiao
        Mayweather vs Cotto @ 140
        Mayweather vs Mosley early 2000s
        Cotto vs Williams
        Margarito vs Williams II
        Pacquiao vs any Haymon fighter

        Wake up, Bob Arum is killing boxing, and has been killing boxing for years now.

          His next sentence was about him not being satisfied with seemingly non-competitive match ups. I really doubt you understood his post, but I don't know how. It was pretty simple... Or you're just trying to bait him into a Pac stan flame war

            Same here but even then I'm always hanging off the edge. Plenty of fights that can be made that we aren't getting and it doesn't necessarily have to involve Mayweather or Pacquiao.

              I feel you man - for every evenly matched fight that results in two-way action, and a great mesh of styles. You have an overmatched beat down - sometimes expected, sometimes unexpected.

              But I live for those even matchups that promise two-way action, and a memorable night of pugilism.

              Tonight's fights should be like that - all four fights, as a matter of fact. The most overmatched one is prolly Beltran going into Crawford fight, but still, it's not that mych of a difference - well, we'll see - Crawford does appear to be in a leageu of his own regarding skll. But the style mesh of Beltran will defntely make it interesting.

              Then you have the BOricua who looks excellent, against the tough grinder, insdeer fighter Gradovich, who IMO, is very underrated. This will be an EXCELLENT match of styles, and should be even fght that ultmately results in Gradovich win.

              Then you got an evenly matched fight aganst two up and coming Brtish prospects in Saunders, and EUbank Jr. This one has all the hate, and rivalry behind it!

              And of course FURY! Everytime he fights it's can't miss! Against an in shape and motivated Chisora?

              MATE - strap in for a great night of boxing that will rejuvenate your interest!

                True.

                Mosley and Cotto didn't want to fight Mayweather though. DLH also didn't want to fight Mayweather when he was in his prime.

                    Yet you don't mention Haymon

                    Like Gong would rightly say, take of your TMT Bikini and stop tonguing Mayweather's balloon knot.
