    Colin Cowherd was talking about how the Mayweather-Pacquiao fight wasn't going to revive boxing.And he's right, though I hate to say it.

    The timing of the article stinks.

    Boxing is experience a mini renaissance. There have been goods fight on regular TV and cable with high ratings. Boxing is trending upward. I think the light heavyweight and middle weight division delivering Knockouts that the UFC wants!

    Wlad is chasing heavyweight history.

    This PPV event is a mega fight. Let it play out before judging it.

    The author probably has a lot of good material there for an essay.

    Unfortunately he produced an epic fail.
