I am a big time fan of history in general so I enjoy learning about the wild fighters of the past the John L. Sullivan's, the Stanley Ketchel's, the Young Griffo's, the Battling Siki's, the Jack Johnson's, etc. Its the same with baseball for me I enjoy the old timers, but I still follow my Red Sox as faithfully as ever.

I think to be a true fan you have to appreciate both, but the guys who are in love with the history of the sport are extremely negative about boxing's present.
