Best fighter reactions after their first loss or ANY loss
FIRST LOSSES
Mosley - "I guess Vernon did a number on me" - honest, and amusing
Trinidad - "I want to continue to have big fights on HBO" - poor kid got beat so bad he didnt know what to say
Judah - "I was wobbly, you kna mean? But look, I'm back on my feet" - his post fight interview with Tim Smith was hilarious
Hamed - "In boxing sometimes, thats the way the cookie crumbles" - I actually felt sorry for this guy. He truly believed his god told him he'd never lose.
Cintron - I dont know what he said. He was too busy crying like a newborn.
Delahoya - "I wanted to give this guy a boxing lesson"
ANY LOSS
Tyson - "Look at me. My kids are gonna be scared of me"
Holmes - "The referee, the judges can kiss me where the sun don't shine. Since we on HBO, thats my big, black behind" - Probably the best one ever
Morales - "All this guy did was jab and move, throw three punches and run" - You're right, Erik. What the heck was he thinking?

Chavez after losing to Frankie Randall:--"I'm gonna sue Richard Steele!" ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Re: Best fighter reactions after their first loss or ANY loss
Tyson, surprisingly, showed class after the Lewis defeat ;)
Bruno after the first Tyson defeat;
"That's cricket" :o
Bobby Frankham was the originator of 'how to lose with no class', right up there with Judah and Butler... but unlike them two, the powers that be (The BBB of C) had the balls to give him a life time ban.
Re: Best fighter reactions after their first loss or ANY loss
I love Hopkins, but the funniest reactions are both of his losses to Taylor. Watch right when the decision is made. They show the split screen with both Hopkins and Taylor with they're hands raised, expecting to be announced the winner, and then when Buffer announces Taylor wins, that huge grin on Hopkins face immediately turns into this dumbfounded look. Classic.
Re: Best fighter reactions after their first loss or ANY loss
Hopkins is one of my favorites, but I have to agree the expression on his face after Hopkins vs. Taylor 1 is about the saddest I've ever seen.

Yes, Morales was one of the funniest ones I've ever seen. He starts crying after the fight about how Raheem is a difficult and frustrated him because all he does is hits him and then moves! :lol: :lolhaha:

Ken Norton after being knocked out in 1 round by Earnie Shavers: "He surprised me with his power". As teenagers would say, "Duh!!"
Joe Frazier after losing his title to George Foreman: "George is a helluva puncher" . I think we know that now, Joe!

Re: Best fighter reactions after their first loss or ANY loss
Id say hands down....kostya after hatton beat him. The guy could barely walk yet he got up and told the crowd that ricky was the better man on the night and he was going to give ricky his phone number....what the fuck beats that.

Without a doubt, that was the best possible advert for boxing after an awesome fight on a big stage. No matter what Tsuyu does now, he will always be respected for being a glorious champ and magnanimous in defeat.
Re: Best fighter reactions after their first loss or ANY loss
Yes Tszyu after losing to Hatton was pure class, especially since Hatton did a bit of fouling, and probably almost any other fighter would have made that excuse, I myself couldn't see embracing and congratulating a guy who just mauled me, hit me with multiple elbows, and a sledgehammer to the groin, let alone lose in the fashion KT did, no doubt being in severe pain as well.
