Off The Field: Why Boxing is slowly dying

 

The iconic and historical sport of boxing is slowly dying, whether boxing fans want to admit it or not.

Boxing simply is not what it used to be.

Instead of grinding and fighting for the love of the sport, boxing has turned into an easy way to get money and fame.

madami pa sigurong pinatumba kung di nagloko 

[ginoroberto]

No. Gervonta Davis is a must watch boxer!

[Gtayo11]

Exciting lighter weight with davis, spence and mid with alvarez a bit higher

Heavyweights w fury usyk aj and wilder

[nyekker]

The latest Fury vs Wilder fight shows that it isn't

Boxing will never be dead.

Boxing is, and will remain, the KING of combat sports.

John R Casimero is our great hope to probably replace Mani Pakyaw.

I don't think so, Maraming new students sa gym kung saan ako nag train, probably because of the pandemic or gusto nilang mag papayat. It's great for cardio, stamina and good goundation din sa mga gusto mag MMA. 

Pero sana mabigyan din focus ito, just like any other sports. We pinoys can compete and excel sa sport na ito lalo na internationally. Hindi lang lagi basketball focus. Andaming mga trainer/pro boxer samin sobrang lakas. Hindi lang talaga mag fly ang career kasi kung ng support. Ask this, what sport gave us our first ever olympic GOLD medal? Sama mo na yung mga silver and bronze. Not a basketball hater here, I play it as well and enjoy it too, In fact varsity tayo nung HS... hindi lang talaga tayo naturally built for this sport. 

ps. you don't play boxing

[Serious Joker]

Hindi naman.. 

[kd-X]

I don't think it's dying but I would say it lost much of its luster compared to the past few decades. May due to to the pandemic or maybe due to lack of appeal to the younger generation or lack of global icon/s like before (e.g. Ali, Tyson, Pacquiao, Mayweather, etc.)

[spakolero]

No.

[espakolero]

It isn't but if they continue at its current trajectory then it really will be.

[AhonKing]

kumaunti ang mga boxing gyms. probably becuase of the lockdowns.

 

[perrin3030]

posers are getting paid more than pros.

[acehaa321]

nope

[markcyyy]

Keeping my eyes on Lomachenko.

[HappyHands]

sino bagong boxer na sisikat?

[perrin3030]

ilang decades na nilang sinasabi yan.

[Edmund Dantes]

No it will not die. People will always need to watch violent contact sport to channel their rage. 

[xoxo321]

never

[Dealdealers]

Yes

[padedepo]

Yup. Boxing is about endless bout. When the most paid match with manny and floyd became joke. The boxing generation is definitely going down.
