Is boxing still a sport after all??

Jeff Horn to Randall Bailey on Facebook : “Sorry about the bad news. I know how frustrating this can be."

Bailey's reply to Horn : “It’s cool Jeff. Accidents happen. Part of the business. Just get well and the people of Brisbane can look forward to a great fight when we get a new date. I want you to be 100 per cent."


Two guys who seem to remember boxing is actually a sport. How wonderfully f---ing refreshing

Straight up it's still a sport. True boxing fans see the 'seat selling' garbage for what it is. Fighters deserve the right to talk smack, to make as much $$$ as they can before they retire, from a sport they put so much time and effort in to.

Truly boxing fans appreciate sportsmanship too. Even if it is only demonstrated very occasionally these days.

It is sad that sportsmanship seems to be taking a constant backseat these days, yes.

Theirs still classy boxers out there unfortunately unless your as good as say Kostya Tszyu was it won't get you much publicty here. Jeff hopefully reaches such lofty heights easily our best prospect IIMO.

Few demonstrate sportsmanship like that any more.

Daniel Geale is one of the few guys who has made it to the upper echelon of the game who you would expect similar sportsmanship from.
