    Especially when there are intros before the bout, about the boxers lives, the country etc.
    The Sugar Ramos vs Floyd Robertson bout had a great one.

    Not really. But I'm not into many sports.

    That's exactly how I see it (your first two sentences, anyway).

    Classic boxing is all about watching the same fight multiple times!

    You watch it, and re watch it, until you are sure what happened!

    I recommend this process to you!

    This is true. I think watching a fight over and over always teaches us more. Any fight if you watch it again you see something you did not see before. I always find it interesting how some fighters say they don't watch fights of their opponents before they fight them because it is that fighter winning usually so what are you going to see. But I don't think so. There is always something to see.
