Well there's a few reasons...boxing is less followable today, you have to seek it out instead of it just being there on a Friday/Saturday night or Tuesday/Thursday when USA was showing it. Also there are a lot of pros protecting their 0's instead of fighting a live body and the other guys, the guys who have a few losses here and there, they are just completely written off as good quality boxers.


Basically it has to do with boxing turning itself into a fringe sport because no other sport made boxing worse, boxing screwed boxing and it'll have to unscrew itself for us to have it back completely.
