not good for someone who only follows the heavies
Yes, this is really annoying. Please correct it ASAP.
I'm not keen on the new layout but I expect I'll get used to it.

Now I can't see boxrec rating before and after each fight even though my setting is on. What a miserable failure this change is. :shame:

The watch list is one of the best features on boxrec. I don't like this at all. :verysad:

Yes, they are. I got lost again which illustrates how functional the site is.

Thats not what it demonstrates. It demonstrates that you need to get used to it as you did when you first came on the original site.

If all you spend the time learning the system rather then moaning everything would be just fine. Well, except of the watchlist, which is fukcing missing.

Will a fighter's page still list the weight class each fight was fought at, as it used to when pre/post rankings were displayed?

Yes, a human can get used to things regardless of how bad they are. The question is why we need to get used to an inconvenient site when we had a much better one ? Because somebody wasted money for "improvements" ?

We could see all top 20-25 fighters in each weight class on one page. Now, it is two pages. There are huge stars and tiny numbers for actual ratings. Content is affected by unnecessary and imaginary presentation "fanciness".

I agree about stars. They are unnecessary. All entrees can be done in one line by removing nicknames and relocating "more" button. I wound get rid of the useless left panel altogether.

Yes, you are the ONLY person who thinks that.

Why do they these bright ugly colors like they're trying to attract dumb children to a cereal box?

1) Change is not always good. Sometimes change is very very bad.

2) Please don't destroy a great website out of sheer boredom!

3) Bright colors are for very dumb people and children. Research actually bears this out.

It's nice that people are putting in the effort and time to keep the site looking up to date.Unfortunately, I don't like the new look.So many colors and I find it hard to navigate.I will get used to it,as will anyone,but I don't like it at all and would much prefer the previous version.Appreciate the time and effort though :salut:

Boxrec's USA boxing schedule (because of the high amount of USA fights) used to broken down into regions (Northeast, central south and west).

Now it is just USA.


Pretty lame. And hurts USA boxing promoters, match makers etc..

Also bummed about fighters to watch being taken away.

Oh well, like most websites and entrepreneurs you always learn by failing. With that said , I'll continue to use the still valuable assets that the site offers.

Hey Chuck9788

There's a way to make it easier for the USA

You go on the location tab and then you choose commission

Then you enter the Country and them the State commission that you looking for, its easier like this

Marina, just admit that the new presentation is a failure (see the poll in another thread) and change it back.

I always keep track of the heavyweights schedule but now when I try to 'only' view heavyweights its shows the whole damn card where I need to analyse to pick out the fight i want . In other words the filter doesn't work

Please return the schedule format as previously
All sorted now. Thank you guys. That's better. :TU:

The former version wasn't mobile friendly. We were ignoring around 40% of the traffic.

Thank you, that is fixed.
