Boxers Who Don't Get the Respect They Deserve
Sep 5th 2013, 08:18, by Robert Aaron Contreras

The continued growth of technology has given the media and even fans more of a role in the fight game. Boxers aren't good until some writer says they're good. Boxers aren't champions until some governing entity says they are. A boxer doesn't get a big payday unless the fans deem him entertaining enough. 

The press and spectators, at times, seem to have these boxers' very careers in their hand. And seeing as how the majority of them have no fight experience whatsoever—or have never even slipped on a glove, for that matter—it would come as no surprise that a number of fighters do not get the level of respect they deserve, for one reason or another. 

So for all of the injustice, repression and bias, here's my attempt to shed some light on those who warrant far more respect than they're receiving.  

Respect—isn't that what they were all fighting for in the first place?

Well, these men deserve it.
