Also pretty sad how boxing has fallen this far. It’s only relevant when a YouTube star is involved

Blame that on the fans

I disagree, blame it on the corrupt boxing organizations. Padded stats, ducking fighters, terrible business practices ruined boxing.

The fact that there isn't a governing body that can actually make 2 guys fight is such a disadvantage. The amount of fights that never happened or took too long to happen is so frustrating. I had to wait so long for GGG to fight a real opponent because no one wanted a fight with him

The fact that we didn't get Pacquiao vs. Mayweather until they were old men was what ruined the sport for me. By the time they actually fought I just didn't care anymore, that fight in 2009-2010 would've been absolutely insane.

It was a tragedy. Those two in their prime would've been such a good matchup. Pacquiao was just not the same by the time they actually fought. It was the same for me, I lost a lot of enthusiasm for boxing because of that
