I WOULD SAY THAT BOXING IS STILL GREAT. AND I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS MORE TALK ABOUT BOXING THEN, FOR THE SIMPLE REASON THAT MOST OF THE GREATEST FIGHTERS CAME FROM THAT ERA. THINK ABOUT IT. ALI, FRAZIER, MARCIANO, DEMPSEY, ROBINSON ETC. ALL WERE FROM THAT ERA. BUT I WOULD SAY THAT BOXING IS STILL GREAT NOW. THINK ABOUT THIS NOW. WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO COMPARE THE NBA THEN AND NOW?? JORDAN, BIRD, MAGIC, MALONE? VS. KOBE,LEBRON,WADE AND ANTHONY? I SURE DONT THINK SO.
