sorry im not on as much, warcraft and college takes alot of my time(should be graduating by June)
But I like the way this thread hasnt become a hate one.
The bringing up of Cotto and Margarito, you didn't need to sale that fight![]()
But thats what you'd call a smark fight. "Smart marks" people that have followed boxing and followed these two fighters for quite a while.
But to the casual boxing fan who has no idea who these fighters are it may not be as appealing.
At my college you have boxing fan smart marks, and then you have people who don't really watch boxing but can name some people in it and would watch a fight.
Boxing needs a way to reach a younger demographic, because us as boxing fans won't be there forever. So how is boxing going to bring in a younger crowd or audience of people to get people interested in boxing, thats where my point about the outrageous people can come from.
Kudos to the guy who mentioned James Toney as one.
