So yeah, i agree they lack the power being 112 lbs and all. But what if a boxer came along with a sweet style? Would that spark any interest? Or must they have bricks for fists to get you giddy enough to watch or follow a flyweight boxer?
Yeah, i get where you're comin from mick. Thats what im askin, what would it take for the casual fan to even want to follow a flyweight? If not knockout power? Would he have to come in with the charisma and grace of Ali? The sweet, graceful yet devastating style of Sugar Ray Robinson? Or it just the sad truth, that the casual onlooker would always put it past a lighter weight fighter, thinking they wont put on an awesome, HW worthy fight?
I just wonder if there'll ever be anyone in the division dazzling enough, that'll make people say "man screw the heavyweights for once, you gotta check THIS guy out"
Also thanks for the naming of some fighters. Im gonna have to check em out.
