      Most do nothing but COMPLAIN but when a big fight is made why do fans stop talking about that fight? This is an amazing fight and stylistic dream but I haven't see many threads started on this one to discuss. Nor do I see the So Called "Boxing Exports" on youtube make videos talking about it.
      It's a good fight but who has Glowacki beaten? Huck I guess but how much did Huck have left? If it was Usyk against someone like Kovalev or Stevenson in his own weight class it would be different, but without having watched cruiserweight much, I expect this to be kind of one-sided.

      I could be wrong though. That Huck win was actually very good but I just expect Usyk to be too much.

      Anyway, the fight is not on US TV, and the biggest reason people here don't care is because most fans on NSB seem to be part of the demographic. This fight is between white euros so they don't care. They can only root for both of them to lose and since that's not possible, they have no rooting interest in the fight. And since they're not real boxing fans who can appreciate good fights as a neutral, they're not interested as a result.

        Last 2 fights have been against Huck and Cunningham and now Usyk, that is not bad at all, not sure what more can you ask for in that Division

            I am far from a casual and I don't really know many fighters in that division either.

            You keep saying this is a HUUUGE fight, but how is it really?

            A medalist on the fast track to a title, but he has 9 wins, other than a stylistic matchup, how is this fight so big?

            Just because you want a fight to be big, or because you are looking forward to a fight, doesn't mean the world will stop for the same fight.

            So now tell me, what makes this a lock for "one of the best fights of the year? Give me a real answer.

            Comon dude, I am a seasoned boxer and fan I am am not really familiar with cruisers either. There are many divisions and many fighters in each these days.

            This isn't some mega fight, even though it might be a great fight on paper.

                You have a point, I follow the Cruiserweight Division maybe that is why I'm excited about it on top of both having what you would think are Fan Friendly Fight Styles!

                But yeah maybe I'm overly excited about a Division nobody gives a **** about and I'm OK with that

                  It happens.

                  I will definitely watch it.

                  I was an Oosthuzien fan but he fell off the map.

                    This is a huge fight that is getting overshadowed by a terrible JMW fight and people hating on GGG, Ward, Kovalev, Klitscho etc 9/10 threads.

                    Usyk is incredible but Glowacki is a bulldog.

                    I can't wait!

                      You judge fighters based on how they look? OMG! Or are you trolling?
