      Any argument about promoters or networks. Any topic involving Floyd's old fights. How many times do we have to talk about Castillo-Mayweather 1?

        Threads that go on about PPV buys and TV numbers. None of that stuff makes sense to me as I'm from the UK. In the UK it either makes sense for the promoters and the fighters or it doesn't. We don't get all the nitty gritty details and we don't really care to know. Just a totally different culture.

          I dont give a rat's ass about PED talks and i never post in those threads. It is boring as ***. PED dont give one magical boxing skills and it aint gonna turn a bum into a good figter. You either have skills or you dont. PED aint got sht to do with it.

          Floyd's IV needle talk. Fkin ****** fkin topic i feel like backslapping a mutha****er whenever they mention it. Floyd is a great fighter point blank.

          PPV numbers. Casual fans get into discussions like this like but it is irrelevant to me since im not making a dime off of it.

          And i dont give a flying *** about a fighter's purse because again, i aint making a dime off of it and it aint my business.
          Im a hardcore boxing fan who cares about watching fights only. Another reason why i dont talk about another man's money? Because I dont take it up the azz, it's that simple.

          What do you not care for?
          What I hate are the repetitive ones that never say anything new. The same circles over and over again in "new" threads.

          Most of it is white fans vs. black fans. Or real close to that.

          The Pacquaio/Golovkin/Kovalev fans vs. the Floyd/Ward fans.

          And the "old fighters" vs. "new fighters" threads.

          It's super repetitive for those of us who don't fall neatly into any single group.

            PED's have considerable impact during a fight, how does that not matter to the OP?

              Any topic about people's opinion on who ducked who and getting the upper hand in negotiations etc. So tired of listening to people say a fight isn't made because this guy or that guy isn't willing to give or accept concessions...like they're content the fight isn't happening as long as the fighter they like gets the perceived upper hand in negotiations.

                In the same vein, the 'Please-listen-to-my-attention-whoring-and-unnecessary-hot-take-(with zero new content)on-a-15-year-old-fight' threads are the worst.

                  (When fighters are accused of steroid abuse constantly! there seems to be a culture within boxing where? its some sort of crime to be in good condition and live like a athlete! this culture does not exist in any other sport! if a 100m sprinter has a lean solid body mass! people don't automatically accuse them of performance enhancing drugs! but in boxing, i have come to realize that their is a culture of naysayers/dream killers! and in life those are the worst kind of self exorcised souls to be around! this problem is mainly most evident in the heavyweight division)......

                    I hate threads about fighter A ducking fighter B. Those threads usually only good for spreading erroneous information or outright lies....

                      I'm with you on the PED talk.

                      What I really see as pointless as hell is mythical match-ups. They're never gonna happen. It's all BS.
