brehs I'm making this thread because I love watching boxing, but it's popularity and media attention has fallen off a cliff imo, excluding Mayweather, Manny and a handful of others
I remember back in the day there was Pernel Whitaker(rip), Chavez, De La Hoya, Felix Trinidad, Roy Jones, Fernando Vargas, Zab Judah, Shane Mosely, Vernon Forrest, Prince Naseem Hamed, and I fully acknowledge I left out a gang of others cuz I can't remember all of em, but you get the point.
I used to love HBO Boxing After Dark, HBO Championship Boxing and dope ppv, along with Showtime as well but I didn't have Showtime.
Has MMA buried boxing, did too many belts and politics ruin boxing, is it simply not getting the same attention and promotion of MMA.
don't get me wrong I have nothing against MMA, I just prefer the sweet science of throwing those hands, I like how precise boxing is and the knockouts just look more clean in my personal opinion. And the matches are way longer in boxing too.
So what do my Coli brehs think about the current state of boxing and it's future, I'm open too all answers and input, not looking for any arguements or anything, just want to know what yall think.
