I'm out.
I don't get to watch a lot of fights live anymore, it is too expensive and complicated to have all these subscriptions and PPVs. So I have to wait mostly until they come on youtube. In that situation I have to stay away from results, articles, and RBR threads to avoid spoilers.
It's just the way modern boxing is trying to edge fans like me away from the sport by pricing it out of the reach of the common man. And I don't want to steal.
That’s not a reason to be out though.
You cast your vote before the fights anyway.
But I'm also not getting to see some of the fights before the next weeks picks. And overall I'm getting to see a lot less boxing as a whole, especially up and coming fighters whose fights may or may not get posted to YouTube, and because I'm not sitting down to a whole show, I might not bother to chase them up. Eventually I won't know half the younger fighters backgrounds or skills I'm already noticing a lot of names I've never seen before.
Sky used to have boxing every week, now it is twice a month if your lucky. And they are the last outlet I'm subscribed to.
I feel the sport is gradually slipping away on me.. And it's not something I want, its just to bloody draining on money and time just to get to watch fights live or close to live.
