It pisses me off but I will never, ever walk away. To do so WILL kill the sport. Things will get better because everyone is going to be forced to do better - the current way isn't sustainable.

Lost my love for it a few years back.
I think 2012 when we were massively spoiled it just went to total **** after and I've not really been able to get really excited for any fight since.
Last fight I was truly hyped for like a kid at Christmas was Donaire vs Rigo and it really delivered for me.
I used to love studying upcoming fights, breaking them down, supporting underdogs, talking to casuals - convincing them to watch quality upcoming fights they normally wouldn't watch and all that good stuff these days most of the boxing news just flat out depresses me.
I'm like a beaten housewife who just can't walk away.Comment

Big time. Started with Mayweather's retirement for me. I watch boxing for the big fights and we don't see that much anymore. We've got maybe 3 this year. We need at least one per month to keep the interest going.
We do have Crawford-Postol this month, but it's on PPV so I'll probably just stream it. I doubt any bars will be showing this fight in my area since both guys are unknown.Comment

I just miss fighters like Tyson, RJJ, HOLYFIELD, bowe, duran, hearns, leonard, hagler, prince naseem and his awesome showboating, lennox, briggs, delahoya, vargas, mayweather, pacquiao, hatton, etc. etc.
Where are the fighters like these guys and the awesome action packed matchups???? That is the kind of boxing I want to see.Comment
