Bud Crawford

Growing up, the “heavy weight champion of the world” was the baddest man on the planet and today a very small percentage even know who it is. Quickly, who can name him? Boxing as a whole has taken a hit from all of the ufc/mma stuff that has taken the mantle and the eyeballs from the average fan away.
I just don’t have interest in mma/ufc. To me, there is an artistry in the parameters of boxing that you don’t get in a street fight/chokehold contest. I can understand an argument about the different backgrounds (artistry) of an mma match being more artistic so maybe I’m not wording it correctly, but a big boxing match is still more enjoyable to me…. And I miss it, just ain’t the same as it used to be.

Shout out to @phillycheez402 for simple, direct thread title!!

Counterpoint: I follow the UFC, and not boxing, because I like the variety in the UFC. I find it far more interesting.

However, I am happy to support Buddy Crawford, just as I supported Anthony “Lionheart” Smith in the UFC!
