    Everyone giving the big talk whilst struggling to control their bowels at the thought of taking the fight the public want to see. You might get two truly big fights a year so you ain’t missing much.

    That's the biggest problem with this era. More jawing and posturing than fighting. It's hard to get the best to fight the best.

    Nah......... not even close. Robberies, corruption, and bribery are prevail in boxing today. The worst thing is the best not fighting the best.

    Blatant Corruption has ruined the sport. No one expects to see a title fight without corruption. The days of two evenly matched fighters in a fair fight with the better man on the night getting the win have gone.

    Could always tell when new fans are watching ,everything complained here about has always happened in EVERY era, just social media puts more spot light on certain things, more fighters todays so fights are actually happening quicker as well .

    The one difference is a PBC entity exists and is content on blocking fights but overall they fail,most fights happen outside their little circle including wilder bc the carrying division of boxing which is heavyweight doesn't wait on that guy otherwise the sport would sink , thank AJ in advance for that one and hope Ruiz doesnt win ( he shouldn't ) .

    Modern fans would never survive past eras ,they don't have the attention span.,25 plus fights was a starting point now its 10 fights and ppl cry like girls if the big fights don't happen.

    Not at all Its always been there, but years ago they tried to hide it. Today its blatant. A man is caught receiving an ILLEGAL EXCESSIVE 750 ml of saline in his own home.
    This breaks the NSAC's own laws by the way.
    Yet Bob Bennett issued the statement " Mr Mayweather did nothing wrong we will not be investigating " :duh
    C'mon man get real we all know what that saline was for.
    Next the NSAC issue a retroactive TUE THREE WEEKS AFTER the fight but never gave an explanation of why it was needed. Look at the judges ludicrous scorecards of late. Adalaide Byrd's ludicrous 111-110 for Canelo against GGG. Was anything done ?? NO I could go on all night
