I was obsessed with boxing, for 5 or 6 years, from the late '90s to the early 2000s. I went to a bunch of fights in Los Angeles and Las Vegas (including some classics), a few in Atlantic City, one at MSG, one in Connecticut, etc. I recorded every television broadcast, including the Spanish channels (I couldn't understand the commentary), onto VHS until I got a DVD recorder. At one point, I had about 600 VHS tapes, with roughly 6 hours of fights (SLP mode) on each tape and countless DVD-Rs. I eventually burned out, and haven't paid too much attention for the past dozen or so years. I had pretty much replaced my passion for music with boxing. I actually sold a big portion of my record collection to buy a 70" rear projection TV, to watch boxing on! Probably one of the dumber financial moves I've made.
Anyway, I am glad that I came back to music, as my #1 (I never totally gave it up, but there was a time that I would have chose boxing), though it would be nice to see some great fights again. I just don't know who anybody is anymore.
