    I mean, who cares if these types ever become fight fans?

    non boxing fans want to see those fights which are all action and don't let them get bored like Hagler/Hearns, Castillo/Corrales Mancini/Frias Rios/Alvarado.

    Earlier Pacquiao if they are younger, a bit older early Mike Tyson, or if they are even older, older stuff, which I'm not familiar with (but learning slowly :thumbsup).

    Not worth showing a non-boxing fan some boxing.
    Let them be.

    Holyfield-Tyson II, while I gently nibble on my girlfriend's ear. (Once she's been sufficiently traumatized, I can console her with the conclusions of Golota-Bowe I & II.)

    She's a fan of Omar Sharif in "Lawrence of Arabia," and "Doctor Zhivago," so I know I couldn't go wrong with Arguello.

    Who really gives a damn about converting someone into a fight fan? You either love it or you don't.
