        Gotcha. Give that cesspool pit a break. NSB and catching up on unknown fighters is where it is at.

        Did you see that Gallimore vs DeLoach fight?

                Yep, I've definitely dialed it back. The passion will always be there, and there are a core group of fighters who I will follow regardless of what else is going on. But Baseball playoffs, Basketball tipoff and the local Mitre 10 Cup Rugby moving towards the finals are taking up a lot of time.

                And let's be honest, boxing doesn't help itself much. I've actively chosen to reduce the time I spend following the sport because it's filled with too many frustrations. I'm certainly not going to put 100% effort into following it blindly - I'm not a glutton for punishment unlike many here. I don't love the pain and I don't have some sick desire to consistently be disappointed.

                      Nah, never.

                      I don't follow any other sports except Boxing.

                      Might watch a big football match if it's on like Man United vs Liverpool or whatever but only if I'm scrolling through the TV and it's on.

                      I don't really have that many hobbies outside of Boxing either so no.
