Unconditional love

HE infrastructure of boxing, or lack of, can drive us to the edge of despair on a daily basis. The inconsistent rules, the unfathomable officiating decisions, the tawdry belts, the nonsensical rankings and the dodgy dealings that create them. The failure of promoters, managers and networks to work together to make the fights that would make boxing every bit as appealing as the sports that get far more attention. The mismatches, drug-taking and the lack of punishment when caught, the wrecked brains that are invited back for more and the unscrupulous imposters who emerge from nowhere with only money on their minds. Yet the sport we fell hopelessly in love with all those years ago continues to have us all in a vice-like grip. Resistance, my friends, is futile.
