Talkin Fight  - click link for the chat This conversation digs a bit deeper than The Muppets, and explores how the show's creators (unhappy being portrayed as a chidren's show) moved to become accepted among mainstream adults around the world, and how this scenario can be exploited by the boxing industry if the appeal of a younger audience is the goal, and not simply those who want to see celebrities get into a fight.

Boxing and Team Management: Human Relations In this special episode we deal with the issue of migrating a young audience toward the appeal of traditional boxing, in a similar manner that The Muppets, which was originally introduced to children on Sesame Street, was eventually successfully targeted at adults. https://youtu.be/o-oKRBmYVhA

Here's my chat with HR specialist Randy Nanjad, who has also researched (very extensively) The Muppets. As promised, we explore the connection between what made The Muppets popular and the sport of boxing, on several levels; from what motivates fighters to what motivates and excites the fans today, expecially the new fans, who appreciate the experience that is being provided by the social media platforms, for example, and the various teams needed to support the growth of an athlete's career and ensure success along the way.
