Wow...Boxing is So Effin SLow these days!

[Scott122]

I was just thinking about it, and so far, in the past few months i have been watching pointless fights and they were not entertaining as well. I usually post a lot in the forums and used to be up there in # of posts, but these days i lost interest in boxing. No Judah, Mayweather, caliber fighters fighting these days. The only exception to this was the sam peter and Toney fight. Im always excited to see Toney fight. But overall, boxing has been way too slow, and we need to get more fights going. I usually tape boxing fights, but since around May or something, my blank videos have been rotting there just waiting to be used. The contender was something that actually entertained me throughout the months. well, hopefully, the upcoming fights will excite me once again.

agree, boxing sucks these days


I am thinking about becoming a police officer, arresting these young hoods that look like potential fighters, and giving them the choice of becoming fighters or get shot in the head...


Seriously, you go down to the ******s and there are some built S.O.B. down there, they just need a little direction

it's because the guys today simply just won't fight for what they want. they are coddled like little babies. we are the technology era - and we sure as hell aint producing great fighters any time soon. mayweather is a rare deal.

And guys are not students of the sport anymore. Good boxing is fun to watch.

except mayweather and judah right? cause u know they are still fighting... right?


lol. and if u wanna see a good fight, watch showtime on october 7th. ull interest in boxing will be at its height once u witness FOTY 2006 live.

and basically the whole rest of the year should be packed with exciting fights. and just about every major fight has lived up to its expectations.

taylor-wright exceeded all expectations and is one of my new favorite fights
Toney-peter had an awsome first 6 rounds and a very good last 6 rounds
Hatton-Collazo was pretty sweet
Pacman-morales was this year
so was gatti-baldomir and judah-baldomir
and so was the barrera juarez card was amazing (except for barrera-juarez...)

i dont see what ur complaining about. ur not gonna get a great fight if u watching some shlubs on ESPN.

same thing with any other sport. Ur not gonna enjoy urself watching the GREENBAY PACKERS play the OAKLAND RAIDERS. and ur not gonna enjoy urself watching the ROYALS play the DODGERS.

If u watch the highly promoted fights, ur gonna get a great fight everytime, and thats what we've gotten all this year with the exception of a sparse few.

i've really enjoyed myself this year personally. i guess thats why i consider myself a boxing fan.

fighters care 2 much about money today,they dont give a **** about the fans,the sport,theyre legacy,they want fat cash n thats it,n that aint gonna help the sport atall

for example,margarito/floyd situation,i dont like margarito n i dont want this to sound like im biggin him up,but floyd knows 1000s of ppl wanted to see that fight,even though margarito wouldnt deserve it,it would make good entertainment and its what some ppl wanna see,even i would wanna see that fight,jus to see the margarito fans get shut up,but no,8 mill aint enough,and its decisions like this,not jus this 1,which makes boxin borin 4 us,cause we dont give a **** about the money,we jus want good fights

You're probably just burnt out with boxing. It happens. And theirs been great fights all year, if not great then interesting fights.

Only reason you say Margarito hasn't earned his shot is because he never got a chance to fight the known fighters as Baldomier did. I can understand maybe you hate Margarito fans but to down play what margarito has done is lame.

I have lost a bit of interest over the last month. I didnt even bother watching the rebroadcast of the Barerra fight or the Arce fight. I wasnt really interested in the last couple weeks of the contender either, although watching K9 take apart Bravo was exciting.
