Just got tired of it I guess. Not the sport but the business side and fights not happening because of promoters and what not.
every community has tots, beef, issues and fights on streets breh..
i can dig that...business side is tedious to me..i personally despise it myself
well heres a list of fights you can try to catch from 2016
any from 2016 ESPN.com fight of the year
ward vs kovalev
jrock vs charlo
charlo vs trout

Time will tell what to make of 2017, but lots of good stuff already on the docket:
Santa Cruz - Frampton 2
Garcia-Thurman
Jacobs-GGG
DeGale-Jack
Zlaticanin-Garcia
Joshua-Klitschko
Lots of good stuff being discussed as possibilities. 2017 might be a nice comeback year from 2016...except for more fights on PPV that shouldn't be.
at first i thought as in taking part..but you mentioned upcoming fights..lol
you just got bored of it?

Don't blame you. I felt some of that. A lot of boxing went from must see TV to DVR and watch it when I had time.
We only have so many hours and I want to give boxing my attention, but there needs to be some effort to earn it.

I feel you...
As annoying as all that business fukkery is its always been and always will be apart of the sport breh...
That's never changing and you shouldn't let it deter you from watching a sport you love...
Ronda Rousey knows how you feels.

This is true but I had the same feeling about the NBA and NFL at one point but they easier to jump back into
Barrera vs Shabransky
David Peralta, a literal cab driver from Argentina, beat Robert Guerrero in 2016 breh. Pretty easily even without a KD that wasn't called.
fukk ghost though.We all feel you on the business side breh. But even if boxing has a down year, the OG thread is always fire no matter what. Prolly the best thread on the coli, the best forum on the internet.
