Boxing as a sport is being greatly disrespected

[Beercules]

It's been crap for couple of years.


Still love it, but we are in a slump right now.

This one is going to be a huge failure. Its a Thursday night, and it looks like theres 200 people there.

Almost forgot there was even a fight today.Should of been on friday if they weren't gonna do it on a saturday.

I just wish it wasnt the main event..... Other than that i don't see the big deal, it brings in money and attention for guys who people would have never noticed

How's your girl, mate? I miss her.

This is all Hern. He is a huge detriment to the sport.

It is now all about social media and followers

Youtube people can come lead main events

You can lose and people act like it never happened because you are famous

I thought you had to work hard, be dedicated and win at the top level??

Now it is just about being famous...They are turning this sport into a damn joke..

What happened to the talent?? the grit?? the dedication???

Hell even this forum is becoming a joke..hyping people over popularity and ignoring outcomes..what is boxing coming to?

Yo cherrypicking, excuse making, attention whoring, no risk taking idol is what happened to the sport of boxing. He made a mockery of it with all the overmarination and clown shows.

Did you have Jeff Horn in mind when you wrote this post?

Work hard and be dedicated - check.
You can lose and people act like it never happened because you are famous - Packy when he lost to Horn.
What happened to the talent?? the grit?? the dedication??? - Makes the most of his talent - check the rest.

Yet he gets hate, all for petty or spurious reasons. So yes, the OP is spot on.

Joke of a post.

Joke of a response.

Always the usual suspects on this forum too.



2020 starting off weak and depressing. Let’s hope some good fights come our way soon.

It's a disgrace. The hype and numbers involved seemed over all positive for the sport but when it's all said and done it just makes the sport look irrelevant, unserious.
