How interested are you in boxing nowadays?

[Takes Two To Tango]

My interest comes and goes depending on the boxer.

Inoue is the man to watch for me.

Can't wait to see him fight again. He's a true superstar.

we're on a boxing forum so fuck off

 

[David Street]

Growning up boxing was important. But my dad long gone and I drifted away from boxing got into MMA and now MMA importance is fading as I age and my kids watch other stuff.

 

[SuperLuigi]

Normally Im around 7 but right now its 8 due to Usyk, Crawford, and Inoue. If Crawford really is retired I will reduce my vote to 7.7.

 

[CatchnShoot]

Boxing is Life.

When there is boxing on, I get to watch my heroes duel. It's fucking magical.

I do think to fully appreciate the sport you do have to have had a 10oz up the side of your dome a few times, but what do I know?

 

[KID Yamamoto]

I coach and compete as an amateur myself. I usually just catch the guys I really like watching.
I’m enough of a hipster to still catch a Rayo fight so take that as is. I’m ok with keeping up with the sport through instagram though

 

[JoeBobbaLou2]

I'm about a 7,

competed for a little bit in my 20s, feared brain damage and then switched to BJJ.

I still watch the marquee fights and superstars.

 

[Stormtrooper85]

Boxing will never not excite me. I'll watch as many fights as I can. Sometimes revisit old favorites, some times I'll find some books on boxing. Do you know how many incredible authors have written about boxing?

 

[Minowafanatic]

My time spent watching pro boxing is lower than ever, but then I coach amateur boxing and my career is within boxing so I think I am just boxing'd out.

 

[Dr Fong]

I have always spent more time reading about boxing history, talking shite about boxing and even watching old fights than I have actually spent watching the boxing that is currently on in any given period.

But if you're not a curmudgeonly old fuck perpetually stuck in the past, you're not a real boxing fan.

Same, there is an absolute beauty to it.

Granted, I don't watch as much I used to but it will always be my #1 Combat sport.

 

[JoeBobbaLou2]

Then again, I don't watch much MMA anymore either. I will tune in for the Strickland fight, and for that young prospect, Jacobi?

 

[cblitz]

I'm an 8 as far as interest.

no one here is arsed about racist MMA fighters or anything else like that, Strickland is someone you would meet outside a club at the weekend

 

[Misery Signals]

I'm quite interested.

 

[Kratos94]

I don't watch it every weekend, but pay attention to results and mainly watch the bigger fights, or fighters who interest me. I am still learning about all the weight categories and who to watch out for lol, there are too many - although, some categories are a 'wasteland'.

 

[Jonny Ninja]

I watch it every weekend so probable a 10. Mostly domestic fights but I’ll stay up for the big, interesting international fights

 

[Tayski]

About a 6 or 7, my interest has grown recently as I picked up boxing to complement my Thai boxing. I mostly watch lower weight classes and older fighters though, I prefer fast technical fights rather than the heavier weight classes.

 

[JoeBobbaLou2]

speaking of Strickland and boxing, he essentially won last night's fight with his jab. Stellar performance by Strickland, and surprisingly solid fight IQ.

 

[Mr.Maelstrom]

Usually idling at about a 6, 7.

Balls deep compared to the average sports fan, not cool enough to be a regular here
