Boxing is the ultimate hype sport, well professional boxing is, people love to see fights and sometimes bouts that pit famous people against one another or sometimes those from different sports against one another.
Boxing fulfills that basic desire from fans to see those in the sports or other notable worlds resolve their difficulties with one another the old fashioned way.
But more than anything there is a growing interest in younger fans in seeing the likes of influencers on different media platforms and streaming networks compete in boxing, as well as fighters from the world of MMA compete in pro boxing.
Bareknuckle boxing under BKFC continues to take off and there is no slowing down in influencer fights or influencer promoted shows in boxing as well.
Why Bare-Knuckle and Influencer Fights are Invading Pro Boxing
Boxing now has more media channels and platforms and broadcasters than ever who need content and so many new fans coming to the sport so maybe as well these networks and streaming companies need a variety of content to cater for their young and old sports fans.
Boxing delivers this lately with all the variety of bareknuckle, influencer boxing, MMA fighters competing in boxing, UFC now promoting boxing and more, whereby the demand from networks and fans for boxing is higher than it has been in a long time.
While these events are not for everyone and are of course nothing to do with the highest level of the sport, professional world championship boxing, they are bringing in big numbers in their streaming numbers so far.
So much so Netflix and many other large corporations have invested big into boxing this year and will be in the years ahead.
The demand is there for them and the boxing fan demographic for the first time since the 80s is getting younger once again, for the first time since then.
That’s huge.
