Boxing is Dying - No Doubt

He had yards of talent and was a joy to watch.

 

Its prob only country in the world where the ppl prob think they are getting value for money when in fact there getting fleeced with a miss match :hi: Klits are massive in Germany thats about it and good luck to them making shitloads of $$ each fight..

 

Boxing is totally ruined by the people in charge. It's a great sport if run correctly but it isn't and it's hard to see it ever recover with so many other sports for young people to watch and get involved in these days.

Another factor is that it is so hard to follow for the average person in certain countries. You need to be either internet savvy or a fool to hand over $50 a time to watch the sport. It's not accessible to the fans at all.

 

Haye will get starched even worse by Vitali. :deal

just say it --- we can take it

 

Agree to disagree! Klits are massive all over Europe, particularly Eastern Europe notably Russia, Ukraine, Hungary, Poland etc. Vitali moved 16K tix in peace loving Switzerland against the Kingpin Johnson for ****'s sake! Sure they are not Tysonesque in the States but they can still sell over 15K tix at the Staples or the Garden, name me one American born boxer currently doing that?

 

Wow eastern europe hey , saving the sport of boxing .

 

It is pretty big market therefore nothing to scoff at! As a matter of fact, it is probably the future of the sport whether you like it or not!

 

Boxing needs fresh faces in its administration and media circles.
Other sports continue to blood younger people with fresh ideas, however this is rare in boxing.
I enjoy watching boxing, but i get sick of the same old faces at all the fight nights patting each other on the back and talking about the good old days.
In some ways, going to a fight night is like going back in time.

 

Population of germany: 81 mill.

Germans who watched klits v rank outsider mormeck: 12.5 mill.

 

Im sure I menshioned showman?..Im sure Naseem was one of the best showman to step foot into a boxing ring...flying carpet entry,catwalk entry,low rider entry etc..wheres that entertainment these days

 

yes mate in Germany and Ukrane..those mma tools i just rattled off,just sent there E class fighters to Sydney,sold 15,000 tickets,on the same weekend as the nrl opener,and we have not even really been exposed to mma here in Oz..Wakey wakey buddy.atschbring the Klits to oz(the heavyweight champs of the world) and we shall see what they sell.they would be unknown here

 

population of oz - 24 ,000,000 , aussies who watched klits versus outsider mormeck , **** did anyone watch it live in diggerland.

 

A Klitschko fight could turn a profit here. But wouldn't make even a portion of what they do for fights elsewhere, and for that reason won't happen IMO.
