Here it is, three days later, and people are still complaining about the Floyd Mayweather/Manny Pacquiao “fight.” People were understandably upset at spending close to $100 to watch Mayweather essentially use the platform as a “Dancing with the Stars” audition tape, while proving that it is possible to be considered a great fighter without actually fighting. Then people wonder why boxing is in the same realm of relevancy in the sports world as curling, snooker and synchronized swimming.
Then there are the Kansas City Royals, the newly minted “Bad Boys of Baseball,” the team not afraid to actually display their pugilistic abilities.
