Sooooo, where are we now after Saturday's giant circus tent implosion? Love him or hate him...clearly it feels the atlas has shifted a bit. I hear the question every couple of hours, did Fury embarrass himself or did he embarrass boxing on whole. I'm going with the latter. But as I've said too many times boxing and fans also have themselves to blame. I mean the enablers and the gullible. Sellers, buyers and promoters of the obvious clear farce prior to the opening bell. Now apparently Ngannou has Hearn mentioning AJ for a "fight" and a half concussed Deontay Wilder trying to get him some 0-1 Francis . Jebus. What have we thrown the door open for. Maybe it'll remain a divisional thing regarding the heavyweights. Or drip drip into other crossover cash grab dribble matches.

Know what I see...nothing but more than a few actual up n comers, contenders and top 10 fighters being passed up. It's happening right now and has been. Boxing feels like it has lost much of its developmental ground and gradual process. What is the motivation for any top guy who has dedicated 5,10,12 years to a boxing niche, rank and looking for just 1 single crack at the "big" stage and payoff when the boxing establishment...for the most part...drops its pants, breaks out its clown nose and big red shoes and makes what should have been a toss away exhibition with a total novice into a now lineal championship affair. Boxing is in a rough spot, if ever there was a time when it desperately needed to know what it wants to be when it grows up, it's now! Stop enabling clowns.
