I have loads of mates who have a passing interesting in boxing, and they love it when I look up all the good fights on YouTube for 'em. Its helps boxing's popularity that people can see Roy Jones Jnr and Lennox Lewis highlights. But obviously the execs who run HBO, straight out of business college and never thrown a punch in anger their whole lives, would rather have a short-term buck by suinng someone then think about it properly and realize that THE INTERNET IS A LIFELINE FOR BOXING and if they pull the plug now Boxing will die on its hospital bed, DNR.
This S*** gets on my nerves so badly. I bet you this much, MMA and UFC won't sue YouTube for improving their profile with the general public, they're not stupid. This is why CAPITALISM JUST DOESN'T WORK!!!!
