Re: You know how i know boxing is dead in the U.S
I fail to see why it would be considered a "bad" thing by anyone that boxing is not nearly as much of a topic for todays media...
To be honest, I like the state of boxing in the U.S. today..You can keep all the things that come with a sport being "popular"... As soon as the major corporations and major media outlets pick up on something it gets cheapened every time...
Arenas start getting packed with executives entertaining clients, ticket prices go through the roof, the media gets even more biased and chooses who will be a star (look at what they've done to baseball with their Red Sox - Yankees obsession) and the hardcore boxing fans get pushed further and further away from the sport...
Nah, I have the internet, I can find out any info I need on a boxer.. Screw major media and let them stick to licking Eli Mannings bum..
I like the feeling I have now of the sport. It's like knowing a secret no one else knows. And I'd like to keep it as hush hush as I can...
