What's this spam got to do with boxing?

"But sitting ringside on Saturday, with a cacophony of noise ringing in your ears, it was hard not to think of this as the future.

At once terrifying, exhilarating and intriguing, it is pure car crash entertainment -"



what crap.

I eventually gave over reading that article despite persevering on with it.

I rented the very first couple of shows about 10 years ago, with Joyce Gracie and was very impressed with that guy.

However I think the sport in itself is pretty grotesque. Don't enjoy it at all and seek to avoid it. I'm not too far behind John Mccain tbh when he likens it to human cockfighting.

My mates that watch it regularly, not only do not know much about boxing, but they actually DON'T like boxing. The same mates also laugh at clips of people smashing their heads open on Youtube or breaking their necks. Go figure.

I'm not saying all UFC fans are sick, or simple, like that, but to me, the more extreme the level of violence, it's not hard to get a baying mob to go along and watch.

Put it this way...if you ran a business I bet you wouldn't wanna employ something like 70% of a UFC audience. Though my argument is not helped by the nob-heads that turn up at boxing and football.

Basically, what I am saying here, in a very big nutshell, is that I like BOXING, and I don't like UFC. And having observed over a hundred hours of it, I wouldn't much care if I never saw it again.

I wouldn't go to it if you gave me a free ticket and took me there in a Limo.
