      Boxing is considered an old school form of fighting by the twitter generation. I blame feminism and the pussification of kids in school. As for UFC it's trendy nowadays to wear a UFC shirt and claim to watch it, even if most of it is just a bunch of men humping around on the canvas. I'm not Mexican, so I wouldn't know about Hispanics, but I think it's a universally held opinion that this generation is one of the worst, and this is not the ranting of some jaded old man, this generation thrives in hype and mediocrity.

        My family's not that big. Can't really gauge. But from what I've noticed, it seems boxing fans are a little older. Seems MMA is taking the younger fight fans. It goes back to the argument that boxing is dying. It's tough. You need stars.

          I still have a hard time understanding that people like soccer after the age of 8. I mean, it was fun during recess for a bit but even at age 10 I realized how girly of a sport it is and watching it isn't any better than watching golf.

              Lmao You're fucked up, bro. I'm not a soccer fan, but I get into the World Cup...big time. There's something about the energy of that event.

                You're comparing it to golf? Go play a soccer and try to control a ball with your feet while someone else is trying to take it off you, and then try to shoot it into a rectangle box with someone blocking you. It requires immense skill.

                    Soccer is sorta like boxing,,,it's a slow paced tactical sport with moments of explosiveness....
