    Boxing is the trend on youtube in 2018.. KSI (youtuber) fought Weller (Another youtuber) in an actual decent match and now he is going to box Logan Paul (Another famous youtuber). All these youtube personalities are calling each other to box. Fouseytube and Vitalyz are supposedly fighting too.

    These guys have millions of subscribers and reach huge audiences. I wonder if any legit promoters will try to get in on this.

    The problem is that boxing is a slow-burning sport where fighters don't fight often enough and fighters develop slowly.

    That lends itself much more to daily newsprint than social media, and the modern attention span deficit - so a lot of youtube vids are prone to stupid exaggeration and ridiculous titles like 'Eubank goes in RAWWWW on whomever''

    I'd say it's bad for the sport and attracts the kind of idiots who post on this very site in garish primary colours.

    Every time your favourite boxer loses "it's a fix!", and any top boxer is either a no-skill PED addict or, verily, the son of God himself.

    Boxing doesn't need these kind of ******s.

    Everybody is riding the coattails of Charles Z-Money-Bomber Zelenoff. None of them pussies want none from the OG neither. Someone best contact Charlie Z, AKA The real ****in' champ of Youtube and let him know there's some ***** ass pretenders stinking up his ring what ain't even made no video of them showing us their ungodly power against a Bob like the chump bitches they are.

    I don't even know what a ****in' KSI is but y'all know it's just got me hungry for the eleven herbs and spices of original recipe. Where you at big dog. Help us Z-Money-Bomber, you're are only hope.

    My 8 yr old boy follows Logan Paul, probably why you haven't heard of them, its mainly kids or absolute bell ends that follow him. Worth millions down to his youtube channel.
