As long as the fighter people want to win 'wins' and someone gets robbed and its an opportunity to say theyve been exposed, people dont care.
    Exactly and that’s the problem no one gives a damn and until we all come togather and do something about it instead of just saying that’s boxing these decisions will keep happening and it will happen to anyone’s guy.

      You think it only happened once or twice a year a decade or two ago?

      Sorry, but it happened just as much as it does now. Going back further when the mob were involved was when it was at it's worst. But it's still the most corrupt sport out there today. This I hate to say, won't change.

      Then you have "Fans" agreeing with the robberies. It's just grotesque from top to bottom.

        Yes, getting dropped by HBO was pretty record breaking alright.

          Didn't the last PBC fight have more average viewers than the last 7 UFC PPVs or something? Lol.

            HBO dropping the sport from it's roster was clearly a good sign.

            I'd keep trying to disacknowledge that if I was you. Good move.

              I saw a fighter sign a 325 million dollar contract. Did you?

                It's business first and sports later, get used to it, the bigger name will always have the advantage, if you are the underdog and you wanna win, you better bring it and don't let it go to the judges.

                  You saw "a fighter" sign a big contract.

                  "A fighter" also know as ONE fighter.

                  Gee that is impressive..

                  The average guy is making a few thousand dollars to get his head pounded in.

                  Also, the sky is blue.

                    I saw another one JUST sign a huge contract... And a few others who fight for around 5 million a fight.

                    What you're missing, which probably equates to you being young, is that there will ALWAYS be huge stars in boxing. Always. It's been dying for over 100 years they say.

                    Look at actual stats, not opinions.

                      It took you 30 minutes to come up with this?

                      There will always be "huge stars in boxing," eh? What's this, a new conversation?
