?Boxing is dying,? ?mixed martial arts bouts (MMA) are better? and ?there are no great boxers anymore.?
Stop me if you?ve heard any of the above recently.
While it?s true that the sport of boxing has absorbed several body blows in recent years, particularly because of the immensely popular MMA, boxing bettors and pugilistic aficionados everywhere have seen their sport blossom recently with several ?big-name? bouts that have taken boxing off the backburner and put it back in the spotlight where it once routinely stayed.
In addition to Saturday night?s bout between Oscar de La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao, the recent bouts between middleweights, Bernard Hopkins and Kelly Pavlik and Joe Calzaghe versus Roy Jones Jr., have firmly put boxing back in the limelight, not only in the BetUS Sportsbook, but in a national and international sense as well.
With possible ?mega-bouts? featuring Bernard Hopkins versus Roy Jones Jr. and Ricky Hatton versus either Pacquiao or De La Hoya, not to mention heavyweight David Haye going up against champ, Wladimir Klitschko, looming on the horizon for 2009, BetUS boxing bettors could be primed for an extended stay in the sporting spotlight.
