    and since you're bringing up GGG into the convo, all I know is someone from KAZAKSTAN, is more popular than Ward in the US.

    Funny you mention "I have no doubt" without showing the FACTS.
    Casual fans love the knockout, but they don't understand basic concepts of boxing.

      And that basic concept is entertainment.

        Just like casual hockey fans get bored watching a 1-0 game or a 0-0 game that goes to overtime but they love a 7-0 blowout. They do not understand the intricacies of the game and the defensive skill required to keep a game close or scoreless.

        But by the same token, a 0-0 game that has one team on constant offense and the other team only on defense with no offense at all and who can only stay in the game because of a hot goalie, has no balance and no entertainment value for even the most knowledgeable fan.

        There has to be a balance between offense and defense. Given the choice between watching one or the other, 95% of people will choose to watch pure offense over pure defense.

          so parking cost $35. $35?!?!?!. It wasn't even that high ($30) during the warriors playoffs. But I guess Oracle has to make their money some place seeing as how tickets to the "event" were being handed out for free at the local barber shops and shoe palace's.

          One nice highlight of the night however was seeing that big nosed 9ers quarterback idiot get booed. The "music" entertainment was more garbage live than on TV, at least on TV could change the channel.

            Oakland has it's rep, but it is nice. Go to the hills, Piedmont, etc and you'll see

                  Did you go?

                  I went and it was fun. Granted i went to the game next door too so the alcohol, among other things, was flowing through me already but i thought it was lively and had a good time

                    Yea it was cool, $35 for parking wasn't though wtf was that about.

                    "music performance" was garbage though. Really could've done without that nonsense
