    The fans get ripped off time and again, managers TV the fighters themselves who is to blame, but as fans we remain loyal to the sport, they seem to forget with out US there would be NO payday.
    When it comes down to it. Ultimately the fans are to blame. I wouldn't say as many of us as the casual, sensationalist dipsh*t crowd with the severe case of FOMO (fear of missing out). Theyre the ones that keep buying these BS cards and humoring these delusions of grandeur by Arum(bradley Pac 3), Golden Boy/Canelo, Haymon/PBC/ Stevenson/Wilder, Cotto and formerly Mayweather types. The instant gratification tendencies of the social media generation (that have more tools at their disposal to voice their dissatisfaction but do the opposite) retweet/repost hollow declarations from con men primadonnas, that no longer want to work for the money. If everyone boycotted one of these F*ckers and didnt pony up for a fight and forced the promoter, venue, networks and whatever VC's might bankroll these things to flush their money down a hole with no profit, they'd realize the power wielded by the fans. Sadly it doesn't happen because there is no organization for these type of movements and the hold outs are silly f*cking people with no interest that buy the fights for the sake of throwing a party, or nationalistic/ ancestral pride. So the unfortunate fall out is that the lazy no risk fighters get the same if not more backing than the guys like Crawford.

    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Had to read it twice to get the message, but I think, unfortunately, you are absolutely correct.
