Comment on Is Boxing Still a Legitimate Sport, or Mostly Hype? by PanthersGirl

Great Post! I am fan of sports like football and basketball. Athletes work towards optimal fitness to play their sports. Boxing contrasts in that Boxers get fit to break down their bodies. There is a rawness that fans love. There is certainly a skill set that allows one of them to best the fight. I find it difficult to get past the savage nature of the sport and the hype.

With prospects like Saul Alvarez and Adrien Broner, I think boxing will be seeing a resurgence. Fighters like Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao still put on great performances, but I think the surprise defeats of Amir Khan and Victor Ortiz are starting to regain some of boxing’s legitimacy.

[...] From a marketing perspective, the media’s hype is lucrative for ball clubs and individual players, especially if the hype surrounds a player who knows how to handle his “hype time” in a way that pleases fans who use twitter. Those same fans will blow up twitter and then race to the stores and the web to purchase the various items that bear the player’s name and likeness. Many people who do not follow sports or even care about sports will suddenly know the name of the player or team who is the subject of the “hype time.” (2nd reminder/ previous post: It’s all about the money: http://sportsfanlunatic.com/2011/10/04/its-not-whether-you-win-or-lose-its-all-about-the-money/) [...]

I was also wondering how Nike and other vendors could allow this to happen. I’m sure they lost a ton of $. I was super annoyed at how I was still getting email messages from the NBA Store with promotions…and no games were being played. SUCH ridiculousness!

We live in a society that prizes some jobs over others. Athletes, accountants, doctors, entertainers, bankers, etc. the list goes on of people who are paid an awful lot of money. The reason. Happenchance. And you wll also notice that 90% of these people are men. The reason. Sexism. And 90% of those men are white. The reason. Racism. There are many reasons people become very rich. And merit is only one. And a minor one.
