    i still get butterflies before big fights and when guys get rocked or the tide changes in a meaningful fight. i always will.
    I don't think anyone fights each other. It's ******.

      Gayweather and Gaymon slowed things down tremendously. Since the inactive PBC boys came in and Mayweather has spread the ducking and being a btch is cool, we don't often get as many shows like we used to before.

      Golovkin has been carrying the sport for a good few years. Want to put chocolatito in that category, but he probably wasn't popular enough.

      Joshua has got the attention, we'll see what he can do with it.

        I still have a lot of love for the sport of boxing. I still pay close attention. I hate the fans, though. Not all of them, of course -- there are some decent, non-agenda driven fight fans out there believe it or not. Maybe like 2 in every 15. The rest are f**king worthless. Boxing fans really are the worst of the worst, lowest level fans in all of f**king sports. This place is a shining beacon of an example.

        Unfortunately the fan base is littered with f**k boys who do nothing but disrespect the fighters, **** on their accomplishments, and call them "cowards" (when 99.9% of these lowlife subhumans would piss and **** themselves simultaneously if any of these fighters stepped to them in real life) just because they have a teenage crush on certain boxers.

        Much respect to you real fans out there but you know it and I know it that by in large the entire fan base of this sport is a sewage cesspool.

          Not as much as I used to. For some reason, Major league Baseball is my favorite sport league to watch now, when I was a kid I thought it was such a boring sport and it was basketball, football, and boxing.

          Things change when you get older. I still enjoy boxing though. Although I have to say I don't really like most of the fans.

            I'll watch boxing no matter what, even when I get upset because certain fights aren't made, or they put too much BS on PPV, when fights are on, I'm watching them.

              Agreed on the bolded. Someone once asked me why I didn't post as much in NSB as the general lounge. Well, it's because idiot fanboys with teenage crushes s-hits on fighters and their accomplishments. They even have the nerve to call these guys cowards. OUt of like 20 started threads, there might be 2 decent ones and even then some idiot fanboys will screw it up.

                Nah I’m with you. Boxing is a joke now thanks to Floyd Mayweather.
