    Hard to argue with that, isn't it?

    I forgot sportsmen from other sports are never convicted of crimes, good point by the journo. No relevance for boxing until evenone is whiter than white.

    Obviously huge mega fights don't revive the sport at the grass roots level.

    But they are pretty solid proof that boxing as a commercial enterprise is alive and well.

    New stars will come along.
    They always do.

    People have been writing articles like this about boxing for over 100 years.

    Sean Gregory, author of the article, was a nobody yesterday, is still a nobody today and will be a nobody tomorrow as well.

    Who cares about his opinion?

    He's right, this is just one big fight in a barren field with no PPV's stars that can hold it alone.

    What a stupid article, the amount of new fans to be gathered from this fight will be insane.

    Tired of people crying over spilled milk, people are so negative even when most of us thought the fight would NEVER happen, but now that it has instead of being positive people are *****ing about the past. What's done is done.

    I guess that's what you have to expect on the Internet.
