Whenever hopkins ducks andre ward by makin it seem like they are the best of friends, as if he raised andre since childhood and they are so close that they can't fight. Hopkins takes a lot of pride and boasts about taking down these young lions but when it comes to the best fighter near his division, all of a sudden, he's too close to that fighter and no amount of money would make him fight. Lol

I'm sure u guys saw the stunt hopkins pulled righ after he got the decision over cloud. He straight up ran towards Ward who was commentating and said something along the linea of " I have too much love for u and no amount of money will make me fight ". .. Dude is basically silent begging andre to not call him out. How fuckin rubbish.

Also when fighters talk about God excessively. ..

When mosley trieds to touch gloves every round with a man who wants to knock his head off

I don't mind the glove touch I defend Mares style and I love how Omar works the body in the clinch but I like the class he shows.

Not sure if cringe is the word but Garcia, Donaire and Gradovich all being trained by Garcia is a problem.

Every time a boxer tries to shoulder roll, gets hit, and shakes his head like he's Floyd Mayweather.

Anytime Jim Gray goes over to a boxer who has been knocked out with a microphone...

Honestly, though, any time I see a fighter injured in the ring. When Grant's leg gave, it was sick. There are multiple eye injuries to point to... Lebedev is the latest I can think of. Dude looked like he starred in the movie "Mask" - I shuddered looking at him.

Also, Rahman when he had that golf ball growing out of his forehead... I thought that was going to pop...

Now thats funny!

the Luis Resto debacle, Margarito being exposed as the cheat he is, Abraham going the distance with his jaw broken in two spots, Fernando Vargas' eye against Mosley in the first fight, Rahman's hematoma against Holyfield, Pettaway's KO of Brown, etc.

We seem to have two different definitions of cringewothy taking place.

Anyway.. Buddy McGirt giving Paulie a haircut inbetween rounds after his hair extensions kept coming loose and blocking his vision, nearly costing him the Lovemore N'dou fight

The riots after Maskaev-Rahman
The Fan Man incident in Bowe-Holyfield II
Tyson-Holyfield II The Ear Bite
Tyson-Savarese when Tyson kept swinging after the bell
Gatti-Gamanche one of the sickest KO's ever, you thought Joey was dead

And a personal one for me, RJJ vs Art Serwano when Roy hit him so hard I thought Serwano turned into a zombie...his face looked like the face of the people that gal from The Ring killed.

Tyson Fury Singing

Floyd hitting Ortiz with that shot

Monte stacking it over the top rope

I think I need to consult a dictionary for the definition of 'cringe'.

Mike Tyson ''Yeah it's spinal''.

Bowe doing interviews. Or beating up Pierre coetzer with split trunks and his big ass flapping around. Buster Mathis Jr jumping rope with no shirt on.
