Why do fans still spend money to watch boxing even though it is rigged and unsportsmanlike?

I feel it is very paradoxical. Boxers do not not hesitate to play dirty, unfair as long as they gain millions of dollar at end of the match, while organizers ready to rig the result to manipulate spectators, and spectators are generous to buy tickets to watch dirty match.

How does this cycle work? Boxers play dirty to gain money, and fans spend money to wacth boxers play dirty?

    Number one it isnt rigged. Boxing promoters have went to federal.prison for years for rigging fights. Believe it or not its a serious crime. Others have been sued and slammed for being corrupt.
