By Rafa Garcia: This article is based on the rapid decline of boxing over the last twenty years. I am 35 years old, boxed since i was eight and had my first amateur bout at twelve years old, my career was cut short due to a broken back (car accident).

By Mark Young: I’ll admit it, it’s getting to me, hype jobs, cherry pickers and tweeters. We’re inundated with boxers who aren’t fighting each other, it’s way beyond ridiculous, there’s a clear drop in professionalism in boxing with a leaning towards wrestling style showboating.
