    Half the female boxers that are prominent are.

    Don't know how many chick's have tried it on the 1st lady in the face off. Pretty much all of them.

    Inside the ring is what matters. The numbers outside will take care of itself. Boxing is evolving. Lomachenko pulls off moves in world title fights that boxers dont even attempt in training. The mind over matter quasi science that the Lomachenkos bring is boxing evolution.

    That is what boxing needs, skills and a bit of personality. Rivalries are great too, help build hype.

    Your libtard agenda has nothing to do with boxings decline. Boxings problem is the promotors and the corruption by said promotors.

    "Social Media and the internet are still being vastly underused by all aspects of the sport.
    US PPV prices are still extortionate, and price out many potential fans....
    From single parents....to Students.
    Boxing matches are still being broadcast by dozens of individual broadcasters, rather than a 'one app does all' e.g. Netflix etc, making it extremely complicated for the casual fan."


    Looks like Eddie Hearn is trying to accomplish this part....

    But no guys, you're right, I have 0 idea what i'm talking about and my points are 'fake news'.

    stopped reading the OP after mentioning WOMEN'S BOXING.

    If that garbage comes on an undercard ever again - I'm D.O.N.E !

    The level of corruption involved
    in Boxing is sickening, the WBA sanctioning Davis-Cuellar as a
    title fight, and Top Rank Boxing
    and the WBC ripping off Regis
    Prograis out of his title opportunity,
    are two of the most blatant recent examples. People say “it’s Boxing,
    it’ll never change” and fans and
    fighters keep getting ripped off.
    Boxing can’t ever evolve in a
    positive way because of all this
    BS.

    That's what I don't understand about boxing fans.

    They go on and on about how corrupt the WBC, yet the second an 'outsider' to the sport will comment on it, they defend the sport to the high hills.

    They will complain about 'horrific judging' from GGG v Canelo, but will then partake in ensuring the rematch, which wouldn't be needed without poor judging, will generate more sales.


    There's a difference between a fan and a fool.
