Just the end times for HBO, Top Rank and co.

The takeover is almost complete.

It would be better if you embedded the YouTube version of the video, the format you posted doesn't suit the site, it's all stretched out.

There are no American superstars

Considering the state of the heavyweight division, I don't think so for the time being.

But I think it will sink if the lower weight class talent, if guys like Spence, Crawford, Porter, Thurman and co don't mix it up we may see boxing sink.

This was being discussed in another thread.

I think if people don�t have some concerns at minimum they have their head in the sand. But boxing isn�t going away. It definitely needs to start adapting better.

Their casual fans at the most. I'm sure they have no idea about the 100's of millions of dollars that ESPN, FOX, Showtime and DAZN are putting into the sport.

There's some structural problems in the US but it's thriving in other parts of the world.

I loved HBO but my God are people being sentimental doom and gloom pissheads about this. Before HBO there was ABC USA NBC...and there'll always be boxing and probably a lot more accessible now it's streaming. Once the geo-locations restrictions go it'll be even more popular than before.
