Re: Fighters that earned fans the hard way! PBF fans need not apply! ;)
I would say the best examples of fighters earning fans the hard way are Chris Eubank, the most hated man in Britain during his prime years and Antonio Tarver. This poor guy beat Roy Jones ass three times (he won the first as well), defeated all the top contenders at 175 and even starred in a Rocky film, films which have made legends out of all the other fighters and yet people still hate his guts!
It don't get no harder than that to win fans than that people!

#1 Yep he is the 1st fighter ever to say that

I'm confused. Does he pay pay his fans then? or does he foot the bar bill every Saturday nite and give people rides in his Rolls Royce?

Really..... Thats just an opinion of yours, again you are in essence discrediting his body of work based upon his last 2 fights, in which he won.
So let me ask you a question are you saying he wasnt an exciting fighter before your alleged borefests with Baldomir and Delahoya????

I was never a fan of Lennox, probably because we used the same gym at the same time and saw him wharts and all. Always polite but reserved, looking back at his career didnt he have one. Turned out a great fighter, Im a fan to late. Love the advert plus he deserves a Knighthood for his acheivements, well done young man.
