There are positive and negative things about this forum...but one thing i notice, is the majority of posters seem to be here to argue with eachother. When i see the lines get drawn and people take sides, i wonder if some of the usual suspects here might be fans of or at least respect fighters they trash on here, if they didn't have some obligation to disagree with other posters. Some of the ridiculous **** that gets posted on here can't be for any other reason than to get under the skin of others. I think this forum has transformed the way some fans view the sport...especially ones that didn't follow the sport before they started posting here. I always wonder if boxers from the past that most fans revere would be looked at differently by some if there was a nsb back then. Would there be old guys around today who were adamant that ali, duran, hagler etc were bums cuz they lost/quit/beat smaller fighters?

Definitely more enjoyable.
Being a part of the fighter crews and having wars with rivals fans is part of the fun. Sports isn't sports without trash talk and with fighting, it's the ultimate victory.
It's also fun to chat up boxing with peeps around the world, whether it's knowledgeable people or casual knuckleheads.

Much more enjoyable. I need these forums, because where else am I going to find a group of people who like boxing?
