Is Boxing Dying?

[KarateKen]

I've never been into boxing or followed it, so I don't really know, but many have said that the sport is dying and that the rise of MMA is a big part of it.  Is there still a large interest in boxing? Is it more popular in the USA than anywhere else? Does anyone here follow boxing?  Seems the only thing anyone watches is these gimmick fights like Jake Paul vs Tyson.  Let's discuss it.

I don't know that it's dying necessarily, but it's popularity has declined, but appears to have levelled out.  I think the heavyweight title fights still tend to be the most popular, but that's just my perception; it may not be true.  Does anyone know what the pull was from the last big boxing PPV?

Nope!! Might appear that way for some but I don’t think boxing is dying at all!! It does seem that boxing needs a shot in the arm of excitement, like it recently had with the Logan VS Tyson fight, even though that fight didn’t live up to its hype. 

True blue boxing fans will still fill the seats while the others might not fill the seats. Boxing isn’t going anywhere!!
