Our sport has so many terrific fighters now.... Let's help build rather than destroy. Lomachenko, Chocolatito, Crawford, GGG, Ward (yes he is still lights out), Kovalev, Bradley, Brooks, Thurman, Wlad, etc, etc and many exciting young contenders from all over the world! Usyk (is like a young Roy Jones in some of his fights). This could easily end up being a golden era. The fighters are from all over though. I loved Mayweather, but I would rather see Lomachenko fight than who Floyd became at the end. Build our sport up. We have super talent coming in from all shores. Can you all imagine Lomachenko taking on Crawford in a few years?! Those two fighters aren't afraid to do it either.To all the recent boxing haters....

Hopefully the boxing "haters"you directed yur post at have left this forum. They were dragging it down.

Bnovelist started a thread and hardly got a bite. He's slipping
He'd started the exact same "there are no boxing stars" thread 2 months ago and Caldo had started one the day before.
His patter is becoming tired and predictable.
One of boxing forums finest trolls is past his best, will there be a breakthough wind up star that can match his heyday?

Re: To all the recent boxing haters....
Its a mess. Half of the decent guys will sell their souls to Haymon and his investment consortium and we'll get to watch them on some obscure network vs bums while the other half sign with legit promoters, fustrated they can't face Haymons ringfenced fighters.
Re: To all the recent boxing haters....
To be fair, I've never created a thread claiming that there were no boxing stars left or eluded to that being the case in boxing right now. Boxing has never been stronger with talent up and down the weight classes and i've been clear about that from the start.davie wrote:Bnovelist started a thread and hardly got a bite. He's slipping

My problem is with matchmaking and lack of quality bouts that we should be getting right now. This will not change until fans show their displeasure as no sport is more closely tied to supply and demand than boxing. Just look at the numbers from the Tim Bradley/Brandon Rios fight this past weekend. The numbers were horrible and that wasn't even a PPV event. If this continues to happen and fans do what they should and show their anger, then maybe we will finally change this business climate in boxing.
Boxing is still my favorite sport but I just don't find anything appealing about Loma completely dismantling a mediocre boxer for 10 rounds. Sorry that's not my idea of entertainment.
