    How many of you started to respect boxers more when HD tv became popular, and we would all see the slow motion replays of punches being landed on faces?
    I remember the first HD fight I saw was Pavlik/Taylor I.

    I remember watching Pavlik landing rights that make Jermain's entire face ripple.

    I have a 720p clip of Corrales vs Castillo rd 10. You can literally see James Toney in the back ground jumping up and down after the stoppage, and Winky Wright is right next to him on his phone trying to wave Corrales to go in and finish Castillo.

    Anyone else start noticing things when boxing went HD?

    Not really but I still can't help myself and always pay the $10 extra for the PPV HD feeds.

    I personally like watching the crowd reaction and perspective, HD enhances that.

    I can't even order a PPV in standard definition anymore.
    It's like watching regular dvd over blu ray.
