    Don't worry bud. Sure fire mega fights follow Santa Cruz v Frampton
    Hardest spot always seems to be end and beginning of year really. A literal ghost town of action

    And here's me thinking that Alexander Brand was some kind of PR consultant...

    Roll on September and October, when my weekends are filled with football, boxing and NFL again.

    I hardly watch any sports whence my lack of boxing posting these days. Boxing is the only sport I would willingly watch more given the chance, but streams are rubbish and the TV is random when it comes to boxing scheduling. The other sports are just distractions to stop men from thinking properly. There are lots of things you could do instead. Read about philosophy, modern history, watch documentaries, listen to a back catalogue by an artist you ignored, practice tai chi, learn to cook, learn a new skill. Don't fret too much about a lack of sports.

    Why would I want to read about philosophy when I could actually read some philosophy, and make up my own mind rather than reading someone else's opinions? So you're saying there is some conspirancy somewhere that promotes football and other sports so they can keep the populace mollified and compliant?

    It is an argument put forth by Noam Chomsky and others. Kind of makes sense when you consider the 'accept thy serfdom' British attitudes which were not always like that. You could add television to the argument too.

    You can make up your own mind on philosophical iasues, but unless you are grounded in the concepts, then it is hard to say that you know philosophy. Just a suggestion if you are bored really. Play a sports game then! All I am saying is there is so much to do.
