I remember the days when Wide World Of Sports would have all the big fights and boxing was a hugh sport. I don't even know if I could name any boxers today.

Who are you telling? I don't know any of these bums nowadays.

Shame about Gotti. For the second time in a week a young woman in her early twenties is likely responsible for the death of a multi-millionaire star athlete in his mid thirties. Pretty tragic.

On a side note, I don't care nearly as much about boxing as I did about 15 years ago, but I really want to see Pacquiao vs. Mayweather.
