Do bad decisions (aka GGG) chase away new fans?

    lmao. im gonna just take a wild guess here and assume you've never stepped foot in a ring with gloves on. you apparently have no idea what ring generalship or effective aggression is. Keep enjoying life from your recliner.

    yeh but how come GGG never got bad judging when he was fighting bumclub for 10 years, but somehow gets it in 40 minutes hwen he fights his first elite?

    goes against the laws of probability, happening in 40 minutes, but NOT in ten years of bum club.

    Golden Boy has created more MMA fans over the last 12 months than Dana White and Conor McGregor.

    Because in the first 10 years of his career the vast majority of wins were by KO.....

    Maybe because during most of GGG’s reign he wasn’t fighting Oscar protected golden boys with PED’s running through their body and the help of bought off judges. You complete ****ing idiot. Lol :lol:

    Canelo passed the drug tests,, so who do you mean.

    or do you mean that "lol" meaning you are the idiot yourself?

    No parasite... the “Lol” was me literally laughing out loud at the BN24 forums resident idiot.

    And I guess you just want people to forget how Canelo was busted for Clen after their first fight?? While also looking very suspect for other PED’s. And you being the Med School scholar that you are (Lol) I’m sure you’d know that PED’s have lasting effects for sometimes years after you do them. So Clen boy still was reaping some tainted meat benefits.

    I tell you what...I spend $1200-$1500 every year on boxing PPVs alone....then you can toss in 3-4 MMA cards as well. But no more. I won't pay another dime. I'm watching streams from now on. I'm sick of paying good money to see good fighters (and fans) get robbed and I can't be bothered anymore. Especially since anyone with google, a brain and decent virus software can watch every damn PPV there is for nothing. I'll be watching streams for sure from now on...and if there isn't a high enough quality stream I'll catch the replay on YouTube. **** DLH and PPV.

    After GGG Canelo 1 i saw a video of reactions of people in and around MMA and they were all saying thats why they dont bother with Boxing. I saw Boxing fans on here and yootube and the likes saying they were done with the sport after that and that it was happening too often and was too blatant.

    New and casual Boxing fans have always seemed to miss corruption, cheating and other dodginess in the sport like they only see the surface but all the badness is just below it, badly hidden but hidden just enough. People like us like to delve deeper and we can see below that surface. But it is become more garish as people keep gettting away with blatant corruption and i think it is now at times sitting above the surface and it will start to put people off the more it becomes apparent.

    Sports fans are prepared to put money and soul into the clubs, players or fighters of their chosen sports but not if they dont feel like they are getting fairness, They are willing to follow poor teams, clubs or fighters because thats what we do but if theres a chance ridiculous raw deals are guna be dished out due to blatant corruption they will walk away.

    All I've heard is about 'boxing is corrupt due to all the promoters whereas UFC is legit' from the few casuals I bother to talk boxing with. The view of many would be being fans is that its WWE level predetermined and so they watch two weird looking blokes wrassle around in the octagon.

    why, when its me pointing out YOUR error? odd.

    why would someone who penned the name Clenelo, forget that he was busted?
    And why would someone like you, ignore that hes drug-free for this bout?
