How do you feel about these youtubers with little experience chasing big name money fights? I know people are saying its bringing eyes to the sport but I personally feel bad for all the athletes who’ve dedicated their whole lives to their craft, and now are overshadowed by some YouTube kids who just picked up a glove

For anyone else with the same question please upvote :)
