YouTube - Boxing - The Greatest Sport In The World
Brilliant video. I agree the guy responsible for that can put a video together amazingly well.
Boxing is right on up there. Only real sports that are popular around the world are Boxing, Baseball, Basketball, and Soccer.
Great video
Great video. But Football (Soccer to Americans) is by far the biggest sport here.
I'd scratch that to just boxing, basketball & soccer. If baseball is popular around the world then so are rugby & cricket. In truth, you'd probably have to add golf in there, even though I don't consider it a sport.Quote:

Baseball and american football are huge, but they are prodominantly in the united states(well baseball not so much), but Football will take off internationally, I can feel it.
Amazing video, felt epic all the way through!!
Nice find mate.
In US NFL and MLB are the most watched sports
I think NFL is our number 1 sport here. The Superbowl is like a holiday for our country. One time event each year everybody tune in, even if its not your team playing for the glory.Quote:

Yea we got robbed big time a few years back.Quote:

I dont think those rumors are true, it would be a bad move for Mora. Sure him and Vick have history together but Seattle is not going to welcome Vick in I dont think.
That was a superb little video.. but almost ruined by the unnecessary comments.
why does baseball get such a bad rep in the US.
If you ask me its definitely one of the most exciting sports in the world. If you took away the boring intervals after every innings and turned into a game played over 9(18) back to back innings it would catch on the world over.
I often find myself sky+ing (tebo or whatever the hell its called in the us) the baseball on a sunday night as im quite a keen mets fan!
Boxing is amazing. No other sport gets me as excited as boxing. The hours before a big fight are great.
Football (soccer) is easily the most popular sport in the world. The second largest sporting event in the world is the Football world cup followed by the rugby world cup. Number 1 is the the olympics.
Lots of american sports aren't big in other places in the world. One reason for this might be the cost. With football you only need a football. You can practice certain aspects by yourself. Other sports like American football you need lots of equipment to play safely aswell as a few people who need equipment aswell.
Great video, the music goes perfectly. Boxing and American football (Buffalo Bills football) are my two favorite sports.
Me too, except that I am behind the steel curtain;) Thus said, I don't think that we can say that any sport is the best in the world but for me Boxing does a lot, no matter what some might say that it's only a sluggish contest to get injured, with all the dedication and sacrifices it takes to be a professional boxer (and god knows I don't have it), it's much more than just eating leather, it's all about strategy, discipline and pushing your body to its utter limits.Quote:

Both are grueling on the body and mind; to be great you have to be strategic, have great footwork, be in superb condition, and strong in mind.
And for those that think tennis is gay that's fine. Go out and see if you can return a ball coming 100-130 mph at you and do it for 3-5 hours sometimes; not to mention actually doing something with that ball once it's in play.:)
I love tennis as wellQuote:

Boxing is my favorite sport with American Football a close second. Baseball and Basketball are okay sometimes. Soccer, I just can't handle that but a lot of people like it.
