We all like reading about and discussing boxing. Obviously it's all about watching the actual boxing, but you know what I mean. What impact does what is said and written about matches, boxers etc. have? By extension is what the boxing pundits and commentators writing and saying hurting or helping the sport? http://uk.fighthype.com/attack-of-the-boxing-punditswriters-are-they-hurting-our-sport/
I think it both hurts and helps. It helps as it keeps giving our sport exposuer even though its a fringe sport to most nowadays (at least in the US). It hurt by building fighters up to quickly and the public becoming disappointed when they don't pan out. Didn't read the article yet but I'll get back to it and comment again. Did you write it?
Fair enough, although I think it mostly hurts and not only in the sense of building fighters up too quickly etc. Yup, I mangled..I mean wrote that article.
