Thread: Boxers Who Beat Your Favorite Fighter

Honestly, how do you now feel every time you watch the guy who beat you're favorite fighter? I can admit being a Roy Jones fan that I absolutely hate Tarver, and root against him every time out, not for being annoying, but because he KO'd Roy and forever destroyed his era of invincibility. I also use to be a Terry Norris fan and hated Simon Brown when he knocked him out. And judging by all the posts I've seen on here, I think almost everyone has the same bias against guys who beat their favorites. All the Kostya fans seem to hate Hatton, Barrera fans don't like Pacman, and the most glaring example is how the Judah fans say any and everything to try to now point out something negative with Floyd.

i know its wrong, but i always feel resentment over holyfields 2 victories over mike tyson....

holy did the job, but i always feel somewhat bitter over those 2 fights....

Tyson beat Bruno, Tyson Bad.

Holms beat Norton. Favorite heavyweight fight.

Taylor against Hopkins not in first fight B-HOP won that one,second fight

I guess I'm weird.

Tarver beats Roy and I gain respect for him.

Calzaghe dismantles Lacy and I gain LOADs of respect.

If JT should beat Wink, then he's pretty much the sh!+.

There are boxers I don't like, but I can't think of one I don't like because of
success against one of my boys.

I finde what pisses me off the most when my boy is getting his ass handed to him is the problem is so obvious, that I yell at the screen untill I lose my voice. Do they listen? NO. You know the part, What the F*** are you doing you cant out box this guy, cut the ring off, and beat on his body untill he shits himself. Then when I realize that he isn't going to listen. The bad guy throws a short hook and misses with the glove, lands the elbo. Ref says nothing. (Come on) The guy then rushes in leading with the head, bashes my guy in the face, then covers it with a couple of hooks and an uppercut. My guy is bleeding like someone shot him. Cheap mother F*****. This is bullshit. Now the ref is repremanding my guy for pushing the head down. I supose you didnt see that either. So now I sit and wait, for the punch that makes it all worth it, and buy now the only way my guy can win. The last couple of rounds he's come on pretty good. And the punch that stopes the fight, thrown by the wrong guy. Lucky punch, dirty bastard, that fight was bullshit.

They way Raheem beat morales, had me rooting for Freitas! I like mannys style but I was still disapointed, but I will always hope some one just knocks Raheem out!

Pacman destroying Erik,even though I like Pacman,makes me want to see Erik crush him 3rd time around. RJJ Tarver hurt the most because you know RJJ can beat the shat out of him!!!

Byrd, Lewes, Sanders, purrity, and Brewster-one word about my feelings toward them: HATE!

yea, im a Klitshcko fan, .

Keith Mullings punkass. My boy Terry Norris got old in that fight.

I have a few, Braxton over Saad Muhammad, I loved old Matt Franklin, Bramble over Mancini, that hurt, of more recent times,....Douglas over Tyson, I don't know if I was more shocked or devastated, Mayweather over Gatti, I knew it was coming..but it still hurt!!

I hate Calzaghe but I wouldn't pick against him again.
I hate Vargas for that BS Christmas gift of a decision he got over Winky.
I am bitter about De La Hoya and Chavez for them getting decisios over Sweet Pea.
I was sold on Wlad after he beat Peter.
I like Pacquiao even though he beat Barrera.
I loved Hatton after he beat Tszyu.
I loved Oneil Bell after he beat Mormeck, but I'm not sold on him.

Then you must loathe Julian Jackson

Personally it used to annoy me; Collins over Eubank and Barkley and SRL over Hearns... but I simply do not care anymore. Sure there fighters I like, dislike and despise, but there is not a fighter active that I really, really support.

I like to see the Brits win, it is good for the sport in the country, but it is not the same to me until someone breaks though in the London area.

I don't hate Julian Jackson because I didn't follow Norris that early in his career. By the time I started following him, he had already lost to Jackson, so I think seeing it happen live has alot to do with it.
