Why a "#Boxing Network" Makes Sense
NFL Mobile. MLB.tv. The WWE Network. UFC FightPass. All of these are great if you're a fan of a given type of sport. But each of them falls short in certain areas. Of these, WWE Network comes the closest in terms of the right idea. It reminds me of the failed XFL.
What? You don't remember the XFL? That doesn't surprise me. All you need to understand about the XFL is that it was a model for the so-called "80/20 Rule" - that is, 80% of it was bad, 20% of it was good and was poached by NFL. So how does that apply to boxing, or any of the networks above?

Fallout: Ruslan Provodnikov vs. Chris Algieri
This blog isn't intended to discuss the fight in detail. I will use the fight to make a point about boxing "fans". I'm getting really tired of seeing the same thing over and over again.
