    Despite everything, yes. The only other sport I watch with any regularity is rugby league, which has its own issues and frustrations

        With all my love for boxing

        I admit mma has better undercards

        Too often in boxing you want these random dudes to finish the fight quick. So the main event happens

          And the way boxing is setup is in the Stone Age compared to other sports

          Too many champs per weight class

          Difficult to find public boxing broadcasts

            I would say that my “favorite” tends to go through cycles between the following sports depending what mood I’m in and just how good the action/rivalries/matchups are at any given time.

            Football/Soccer
            Boxing
            UFC
            Baseball

            I also enjoy Golf and Nascar, but only follow the big events.

            Basketball and American Football are not particularly interesting to me, although I like when someone makes a long buzzer beater or a long Hail Mary touchdown catch and will definitely watch highlights like that.

            Olympics can also be fun especially the Winter events.

              Boxing’s weakness is consistency

              Hyped fights can turn out crap.

              It can take a long for the fights you want to be made. In the meantime be prepared for a diet of so and so fights

              Fighters you like can be out for a long time due to injuries

                Boxing definitely ranks number 1 for me.

                Followed by NFL (American Football).

                But it really isn’t close. Boxing all the way for me.

                  For the life of me I don't understand the allure of football, American or otherwise. They are very different sports but equally unwatchable for me. Football stops too much for me & soccer never fooking stops but lil ever happens for me.

                  And yea the only thing I find watchable on a regular basis are combat sports. Boxing is #1. MMA is #2. And these days BKFC is #3, but any fight sport from sumo to kickboxing/Muay Thai to wrestling gets my attention.

                  Randomly I did catch some hockey games when the LV Knights made their run in their first season & that was waaaay more compelling to me than I ever thought it was be. Lotsa action all the time, no break after ever play & that puck fooking flies all over the damn place. So that's pretty much the only sport I watch besides combat sports for entertainment.

                      By default.

                      Never been a big Nba fan. I stopped watching football, stopped watching MMA
