Protecting the '0' is too important these days. And why have 3/4 fights in a year when you can hype up one big one and make as much money.

Back in my day it didn't matter if one guy had beaten by this guy and that guy had beaten by another etc you just wanted to see them fight regardless. Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Duran - Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Norton.

Those days will never come back sadly.

Wonder how many true boxing fans there are out there these days like I was in my mid twenties - knew who everyone was, who'd beaten who etc and when they were fighting etc ? I dare say there won't be many out there.
