    This. Along with illegal streaming, which is a by-product of the reasons you listed above.
    So long as we have organisations like the WBC glorifying ducking and soft touches, the sport is dead in the water.

    We need more warriors like Tim Tszyu!

    Ya they would.

    He would just sign brand new talents that have no better options. They would grow their rankings and quality organically. Slowly over the course of the next decade as boxing continues to die outside of zuffa they would be left standing as the face of boxing and slowly the quality of fighters would improve as they have less and less options.

    "Rat" It's a pejorative term used against untrustworthy characters. It has nothing to do with race moron.

    I agree om getting rid of the automatic runner. I just figured that if they were still worried abut games going way too long, then waiting until the 12th would be a good compromise.

    As far as the Giants and Red Sox go there are definitely some similarities. That being said, it's been awhile since we had any player as good as Betts, Devers and perhaps, even Bogaerts.

    He harmed boxing and had a large part in eliminating excitement from it. And he introduced a pattern for other top fighters to risk minimise and profit maximise, which has become a new norm. Certainly not only his fault but he should have been a role model, a hero, should have had a mentality such as ODLH in the 90s early 2000s, hunting challenges, being an ambassador of the sport. Instead he avoided most of the prime p4p fighters of his era around his weight classes; and if he faced them at all that was way past their prime. It is a real shame because he would have had a very good chance of still retiring undefeated and yet elevating the sport.
