    Yeah in boxing people also say as they do in life "the King is dead long live the king".But in that case it was;
    "Whao the King is back hes done up the new prince!"

    Great points Pride of Boston. People who attack boxing don't understand all that's going on in there. Heck, I've been a fan for years & I admit I don't know all that goes on in there. Puncher vs. boxer, nice guy vs. trash talker - it's just fascinating at times. Old guy vs. the hungry young lion. You mentioned other sports too. While I may pull for a certain fighter, if the other guy I'm pulling against is better & wins, I have to respect that he's just the better fighter. In team sports, how many times has the team you pulled for lost due to one dumb play or player? The team you root for played a great game, deserved to win but one bone headed play lost them the game? Now that's frustrating to me! With boxing, unless the guy gets robbed by the judges, we know who deserved to win most of the time. And the best part, they can always have a rematch. A blown call by a ref in a Super Bowl, you don't get to have a rematch 3 months later.

    In no other sport,except maybe baseball,can dumb lucky happen like it can in boxing.
    You can easily be cruising,this is easy,and Im going to win,and then that stupid punch comes out of nowhere,the world goes white for a second,and then your desperately trying to figure out what in the hell happened there.
    And unlike baseball,you dont have a second to think about your next pitch, youve got to drag yourself up,and try to survive until you get the cobwebs the heck out of your head.
    Why guys dodge or hold so much after a knockdown, even if you get up from a flash, getting your battle grid back on line just takes the time it takes. Its like slowly waking up from a dream.
