I disagree with the authors comments that the fans don't want segments talking about fights. The hype is some of the best stuff about boxing I wish we had a lot more of it. We as fans don't get to know our fighters like fans of football and basketball do. Those athletes are all over ESPN. Our fighters are rarely on TV and any exposure they get I'm happy to see. We need more boxing segments and boxing coverage on CBS, NBC, and most of all ESPN.

Final thoughts: 2013 Best year of boxing I can remember in recent memory. Surprises and upsets, new hero's surfacing, supposed king pins being taken down, record breaking night, the long overdue stirring of the pot in the Heavyweight division... it's been "a hell of a" year. I guess i'm trying to be Floyd Mayweather too now

Showtime and GBP put on much better fights this year then HBO and TopRank. HBO is getting their butts kicked so bad, they are trying to build fighters and create "monsters" by having them fight bums.
