    I mean. This event is huge. But still not the same as when Tyson, Lewis and Holyfield fought.

    I mean if they had the same social media as today, those event would be even bigger.

    To bad Mayweather or Golden Boy never puts on Heavyweight bouts on the PPV.

    No matter what anyone says, not putting Wilder on this card was a massive, massive mistake.

    They had a chance to really build some brands and interest and they crapped the bed for the first two fights.

    It's a niche sport, will never be mainstream, and as we've seen mainstream never ever means it's for the best.

    And I'm good with that, as long as the best fights are made I'll always pay attention

    The boycotts of most of the Klitschko fights were done out of pure bias, but then along came EPIX and we got to see them fight once again. However, Klitschko Vs. Povetkin will be shown on HBO, two Gold Medal winners, superheavyweight division.
