    I refuse to believe Canelomaidana, paulienuts, therealpugillist, larryxxx are more than one person.

        no it isnt, when thurman won against porter it wsant boring. when frampton won against santa cruz it wasnt boring. when someone wins by refusing to engage, clinching, fouling, spoiling, that IS boring

          A fighter loses just say you lost because the other guy ran, You don't want to figt someone say he's boring

          It's sad that people actually listen to it

          Clearly Defense isn't as exciting or sexy as offence but a great D will usually beat a great Offense

          In no other sport does Defense get sh.it on like it does boxing. Can you imagine the NFL being like no one wants to watch the Seahawks because their boring or Baseball pumping the narrative of Don't come to the Dodgers game because Kershaws going to shut it down tonight you don't want to see that . No they embrace it and try to promote it
          yea, it is kinda weird...other sports dont criticize you for being great on defense.

            Not at all. Wlad was defeated and is boring. Orlando Salido was defeated but is not boring. Pac was defeated and is not boring. Eleidar Alvarez is undefeated, highly ranked, but is boring as hell to watch.

            I think the better argument would be that there is a certain skillset that makes the fight boring, and that skillset is often practiced by men and women who are good boxers. So you combine someone who's a great boxer and masters a defensive skillset, and you end up with a boring, difficult to defeat fighter.

            Trying to make this about any specific fighter or race is ******. There are boring white guys and exciting african american fighters. Hell, the poster boy for 'boring', Floyd, was a pretty exciting fighter to watch in his early years - when he still carried power.
