Dr Gloom 21912 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 a dying sport which in the past few years has generated its biggest ever PPV purses. the heavyweight division isn't what it was, but it hasn't been for ages, and there's plenty of interest in divisions below it.

So what you're saying is that there is absolutely no corruption in any form of boxing or, indeed, any other sport or, for that matter, in any walk of life?

It's turned into a sort of WWE like entertainment for the ready and willing paying public. The fight build up is usually the entire highlight of the whole shebang. Money making of the highest order for those involved and a big two fingered salute to those paying good money to be basically ripped off. The real fights are on the UNDERCARD. The trouble is, real boxing is dying a death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35059 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Aye, it was never corrupt in the past. Or overhyped for certain bouts or anything like that. It's never been about money until now either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The losers are the minnows with real boxing heart. That's true boxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 13856 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I think boxing should do away with the gloves and the ring. Erect a steel cage for them to battle in and incorporate other disciplines along the way so we see kicks and submissions enter the rule set. I think that reinvigoration is exactly what it needs. Why does nobody else see this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
