That statement is no truer than in the sport of boxing. Competitive fights are what should be at the forefront of boxing. In a perfect world, it would be Joshua Clottey and Miguel Cotto who have a 24/7 series dedicated to them. But of course, we are all human and just like the vanity of the world that attracts people to the glossy brand-names in shopping, so we are attracted to the big names in boxing. Mayweather, Delahoya, and now Manny Pacquiao are those boxing "brand names". No matter who they are in against, there will be a buzz associated with the fight. While any exposure is good for boxing, it's also important to get some exposure out there for the people who are really going to entertain. Mayweather-Delahoya should have proven beyond a doubt that 2 big names do not always equate to a big time fight.

Its the biggest fight of the year of course it deserves a 24/7. Marquez is one of the greatest Mexican fighters ever and Mayweathers returning from retirement.
ReplyDeleteBut then again, you like Zab Judah and think he's good so its clear you dont know shit about boxing outside of your own narrow and pedestrian perspective.
It's a shame that you had to undermine your initial point that was at least thought out with another statement that just highlights your immaturity. Try to not attack your own credibility if you want anybody to accept your views.
