No matter what the controversy it will never keep people talking for long. Can you get much bigger, in the UK, than what happened between Haye Chisora? Not really. Will that save boxing? No. People want to know who the best is, see them in competitive fights, fighting regularly etc For too long boxing has allowed itself to be some sideshow where every now and again there will be an intriguing fight but never with a consistent and dedicate viewership like football and other sports.
Get rid of Watt, McCrory and literally all of them and put Eubank on. Been there and done that to the desired level - controversy, top fights, ego, hard training etc Watt is perhaps the only one with legit credentials and he hates all the drama around boxing so he is just ****.
