After that BS decision again PAC, I could careless about boxing, frick that corrupt and fixed arse shite.

Might be cool if the guys actually disliked each other. However, they generally then spend the next 12 rounds hugging and then laughing their asses off together after the fight because they both just got paid $20 million.

Its
IMO. I love all the pre-fight hype shite, even if it is 99% fake.

They're getting paid no matter what.
Stare down is for pride...but pride has been bought.
Stare down would mean something beyond "tradition" if winner takes all purse.

Without Don King in the background running his mouth, the staredown is boring

Depends. The pre-fight, center of the ring, stare-down is not stupid. Though, many fighters look away, or down, now.
A good stare down is part of the sport. The forced, contrived stare downs can't take that away. Was Thomas Hearns' stare-downs stupid? No.

Watch the Mike Tyson documentary when he talks about the stare. It's pretty sweet.

Toolish. After you win, stare all you want.
