A lot of people misunderstood this thread so I will rephrase, I've seen that there is a link between fans with no amateur experience and fans which label fighters boring. Fighters should utilise their own strengths to win a fight whether that's moving a lot (reasonably, no Bey Vasquez) or up in your face like Provodnikov. Point is that fighters shouldnt be labelled borin, if its not your cup of tea dont watch! The sport is called boxing not fightif, the difference between the two is... SKILL, both effective brawling and outboxin people (Malignaggi and Algieri) both require different sklls and fans should show more respect to the fighters. I hope that's cleared things up.
Coincidence?

This is just a dumb thread.
LOL what you want casual fans to feel sympathy for a fighter that they deem boring?
lmfao.Comment

Dumb thread.
That's like a businessman telling his customers they should change their taste. If all boxers fight the same style as what you describe here you won't even have a forum like this, thus this thread won't exist. Who will pay these boring boxers? You?Comment

Those fights are impossible to defend and I've never seen someone try.
I was happy vasquez was robbed and I hope bey gets koed again in his 1st defence for making me sit through that at 3am.Comment

I agree with this though, some fights are genuinely unbearable but I think fans should stick to not watching a fighter they dont like rather than calling him boring. Or else other fans go along wit the boring label without even watching i.e RioComment
