Boxing’s Obsession with Records Stifles Greatness

Boxing, a sport steeped in history, has always been a battleground for warriors seeking glory. However, a harmful trend has emerged in recent decades: an overwhelming focus on fighters’ win-loss records. This obsession with perfect records, rather than actual achievements and resilience, is unfair to boxers and detrimental to the sport. As boxing seeks to grow its fan base, it’s time to rethink how we measure greatness. Celebrating fighters’ achievements and resilience can revive the sport and attract a new generation of fans.
