re: Has you heart ever been broken by a fighter? If so, who was it?
Oh goodness where do I start...
As a kid I admired and followed every step of Jorge "Maromero" Paez and crushed me as a kid...
Other then that seeing JCC and ODLH fight past their prime wasn't heartbreaking but it sucked to see it happen.

After that:eek:
Antonio Margarito
I had backed Cotto heavily before the Battle. That night was a revelation. Not for a second did I lose an ounce of respect for Miguel, but I gained a lot for Margarito.
Then he turns around and gets exposed for cheating.
I thought the same thing. J.T. Although I wasn't a huge fan just the way he lost his fight's were very heart breaking. Pavlik,Froch,Abraham and all happening in very dramatic fashion.
Margo went from being my favorite fighter to one I just didn't want to discuss any longer. I never got into the hate parade, but I sure as hell was dissapointed that he never fessed up or showed real remorse. But I'll still pay to watch him fight Pac. Just being honest with myself.

Shit you can't even collect trading cards anymore cause these guys in sports switch thier loyalties so much. Yet i've seen people willing to start fights, talk shit, sell thier firstborn for some fighter that doesn't even know they exist.......yet do all that and call them to support you in any way in any area of your life, and see how loud that dial tone gets....
My man speaking the truth. Yeah I got certain fighters I favor more than others. But the only time I'm getting overly upset is when I put money on him and lost.

I can't say broken hearted but HIGHLY disappointed in Floyd Mayweather. I've been an avid fan of his for years and find myself no longer being able to defend him after not taking this Pacquiao fight.
