It is hard for me to go back to watching boxing after watching a lot of Mixed Martial Arts fighting.
I grew up in the era of Tyson - boxing was BIG, and I was a fan.
Now boxing just looks stupid to me.
It would be interesting to see a demographic analysis of the people who pay to watch professional boxing.

***Same here.
I do think technology can improve this situation, if the PTBs will allow it. By putting sensors into the gloves, the force of each blow can be measured, and judges would be able to take that into account. There would be very few split decisions with that kind of instant data available.
