[QUOTE="MadDogRevival, post: 2252637, member: 8028"] Not really. I'm looking to be entertained. That's it. Defensive counter-punching boxing with him running from the other guy for 10 rounds is not, to me, entertaining. Definitely don't need a KO for a great fight - most great fights go the distance or close to it. The last Mayweather fight I saw the guy literally was moving backwards and away from the other fighter for most of the fight. That behavior should be heavily penalized. Aggression and ring control should count for something, which they don't seem to in boxing. The argument you're making is the same argument they're making for baseball's terrible pace and soccer's low scoring - that's the way it is, and purists love it. Okay. Great. But boring. Mayweather is boring. People aren't paying to watch his fights because they're exciting. They're paying to watch because the guy's undefeated and considered one of the greatest ever in a sport with very few recognizable fighters. How are the PPV numbers for every other fight? That's a better question. If the Chicken Ensalata is 90% of your sales, one way of looking at it is that you have great chicken Ensalata. Another way is that your other food is garbage. [/QUOTE]
