When did boxing lose its mystique for you?

when Pac got robbed by Bradley

when Pac and Mayweather failed to meet in the ring.

 

I lost my great love for boxing to a large degree when---
Boxers started to wear designer shorts in the ring
Boxers no longer wore Everlast black and white trunks
Boxers stated to wear mini skirts
Boxers started walking to the ring accompanied by music of every description
Boxers were intoduced by Carnival barkers
When great lightweights no longer fought each other often as Ike Williams,Beau Jack, -Bob Montgomery, Sammy Angott did, unlike todays fighters fighting 2 or 3 times a year.
When the National Anthem was sung no longer as it was written.
All this never to return....

 

Yeah Id say at the turn of the century. The level of talent really started to drop off.

 

i am actually watching more modern fights live than a few years ago, froch, mares(esp agbeko fights) and khan have drawn me back.

 

Who you trying to kid ? You're a sucker for the coke-addled heavies of the '80s !

Yeah, I must admit, I remember the days when this was pure Hollywood fiction and considered utterly ridiculous :
