    I am the same age as you and I feel exactly the same. I remember all the guys you mentioned boxing on network TV. I remember the football strike in the 1980's when Boxing filled the void. Some of the high quality fights I can remember seeing on network TV included Chacon/ Limon, Leonard/Green, Leonard/ Mayweather. Frank the Animal Fletcher vs numerous people, Saad Muhammed, Arguello, Duran, Pryor. I cna still picture Julian Jackson flattening Terry Norris after Dan Dierdorf was prasing Norris's boxing ability.

    I cringe when I flip on a network on the weekend and see golf or skateboarding on when I know it use to be boxing.
