    Why is so hard to make big fights happen now days?

    Just in the 90's Holyfield made fights with every top guy.

    Now days Holyfield's famous fights never happen.

    These guys fighting every 8 months to a year is a joke. Chavez would fight every few months even after champ.

    To many Prima Donnas who only worry about losing their Zero . Look at Wilder first time he fought a top 10 fighter but the sad part the guy was what 40 years old

      It’s no different. There is social media to talk about it more now, that is all.

            Because thanks to Floyd making all that money now everyone thinks they are worth more than they really are and most boxers are afraid to lose
