y’all remember 20 years ago when boxing used to be exciting? The sport has became a meme in the digital age, i remember being a kid hyped af to watch a mayweather fight on PPV

HBO boxing used to be so goated, s*** even showtime boxing was good at times

never would’ve thought that in 2024, imma be watching a youtuber fight an elder mike tyson

y’all express yourself, im just an old toot reminiscing

I remember pops and his friends used to throw in for pay per view events and it was a big deal. I remember being in the next room as they reacted to Tyson biting a f***ing ear off.

The only way I could be a better player than him was by signing for the first club to play him at all in his first few months in charge at City 🏙️ so he would have been the one

Sign of the times tbh. There's a lot more people now that are willing to learn, especially with info so widely available.

Jake Paul's run is kinda impressive, all things considered. I still hope he loses tho.

If you made this thread 10 years ago you’d be

MMA taking over
Boxing just has the old stars for now

MMA is falling off itself tbh

I just think in general watching people beat eachother to a pulp is played out but maybe I was just never Into it much in the first place

nah it used to be better

Mayweather era stunk too Tyson n Ali only matter

Yeah back in the day like every dude in my family was on the phone all day planning it out eventually piling up in front of my grandads TV.

I’ll never forget showing up for a Tyson fight and it being over before anybody sat down Mfs went ahead and got the pool sticks out

Mike won

Man this s*** sucked eggs

I just made 10k

No way

MMA just took over

Wow didnt realize you bet that much! Congrats man you deserve it

too much ducking going on that's why

Idk man all combat sports are

Walking CTE

elden ring should not be open world

niggas who only watch influencer boxing just catching up now

Mid game tbh

There’s plenty of decent boxers still out there: Usyk, Alvarez, Wardley, Dubois, Parker Ramirez and more across weight divisions. The Serrano fight before that s*** show was also good last night. Aside from the refs scoring as Serrano should have won but refs have been bent in boxing forever so that’s nothing new. The problem is people in this generation hyping up and giving play to these talentless YouTube grifters like the Pauls and KSI, literally famous for pissing about.
