There was a time when boxing, for me, was second only to football. I lost interest because of the squabble's over money... WBF, WBA, WBO, IBF... the list is longer than your arm and the combined arm lengths existing in the state of Utah.

Yep same here. It really is amazing just how far the sport has fallen. For most of my life EVERYONE knew who the heavy weight champ was. If you had just stopped people at random walking down the street, even if they were not a fan of boxing or any sport they most likely could have told you who the heavy weight champ was. I remember a number of years ago looking up who the champ was (Vitali Klitschko) and saw he had been champ for five years (6th longest ever). I had never heard of him.
