Yeah "Boxing fans" are the worse fans in sports overall. I don't call them fans of the sport, they are more fans of certain promoters who represent certain fighters.

Yep thats exactly what it is. Foodstamp fanagers as i call them lol

We get all kind of boxing on Boxnation over here, we are glad to see a channel dedicated to boxing 24/7, a channel that you pay a fees for every month. The last thing i care about is what the ratings were, or who the promoter of the show is.

As long as i get boxing on my screen, then am all for it. We have Canelo v GGG coming up, we have had a lot of PBC fights on here and i couldn't thank boxnation enough for bringing them over for us.

That is why boxing thrives over there. Great to see that kind of attitude. Its hard to find a true boxing fan on these sites from here in the u.s. they talk about purses or put down certain promotional companies and call solid fighters bums etc. I mean maybe 15 percent of posters on here truly love the sport of boxing and not just some weirdo group think ****

Years and years of putting crap fights on pay per view that would have been on free TV back in the 70's and 80's has really hurt this sport more than anything else.Nobody knows any boxers anymore because of this. There is no interest from the casual fans.Boxing needs the casual fan base to prosper. That's how it was in the 70's and 80's when you had Muhammad Ali,Larry Holmes,and Sugar Ray Leonard title defenses on free network TV.Then on the weekend you could catch Alexis Arguello,Ray Mancini,Aaron Pryor etc.These free fights created a huge interest in the sport by the media and the casual fan.I think that nowadays with all the TV channels,boxing probably could never come close to the interest it had back then.Boxing will continue to appeal only to the hardcore fans it has now and I do not see that improving much.

Good rating for a fight with no names, why were those boxers on FOX and not the big names?
