    The fact that, years ago, being "Heavyweight Champion of the World" used to be one of the greatest sporting achievements you could achieve.

    Now, no one gives a f*ck.

    It's lilke Tyson said in his documentary last year, he used to go Russia, Japan, Germany, anywhere he went, and get mobbed.

    Can't see the same thing happening nowadays.

    Burn a couple of belts
    Put a gag ball to Lampley
    Cast Bob Arum, Don King, Bob Lee Singer, Sulaiman on a desert island
    Forbid boxers to use twitter (especially Khan)
    Forbid any stupid references as having god in your corner

    Then, you have a brand new world with fresh air.

    What's bad about boxing is how dirty fighting is rewarded. Case in point the Roy Jones Jr Bernard Hopkins rematch. Very few give credit to what Roy Jones did in that fight. People actually praise Bernard Hopkins for headbutting, rabbit punching, and low blowing his way to victory.

    What's also bad about boxing is how people don't appreciate fights between guys in their old age. People should appreciate what Hopkins and Roy Jones gave in the ring last month, regardless of who you think won or whether they should fight again.

    Can someone please reference a more entertaining, dramatic fight between two guys in their 40's than what we saw in the Roy Jones Hopkins fight last month?

    Give these guys some credit, even if they are past their prime.
