The same could be said about Terry Norris.

Floyd Mayweather - GENIUS inside of the ring, ignorant mush-mouthed stuttering fool outside of it.
Lucian Bute - Got INCREDIBLY lucky against Andrade the first time.
Re: Honesty Thread - Tell us one bad trait of your favourite fighter
vitali klitscho drops his hands
Lennox lewis could have better defense with the hands
Wladimir klitschko could look more in shape and have a better chin
Marquez and ali could hit harder
Foreman gets tired and isn't technical
Hagler footwork
mayweather arms could look less soft
Pacquiao personality and friends (arum, etc.
Re: Honesty Thread - Tell us one bad trait of your favourite fighter
Hagler-Sometimes has a shit game plan when starting fights. See the Duran and Leonard fights as prime examples.

Even though it creates excitement for the fans, and I love when he does it,
its when Erik Morales goes into all out war mode. He is an excellent boxer with sound skills, but I guess going into his mode makes him that much greater.

The same could be said for Tyson Fury. :)
Re: Honesty Thread - Tell us one bad trait of your favourite fighter
One of my all-time favorites was Baby Joe Mesi. Much of this was due to growing up in his area, but I also just like the excitement of his fights. No matter what you say, he was NEVER in a boring bout. But I'll admit, he had major flaws.
1. Suspect Chin (maybe more than suspect after Jirov fight)
2. Horrible defensive fighter
3. Never went to the body well
Re: Honesty Thread - Tell us one bad trait of your favourite fighter
Bute - somewhat weak chin
Martinez - once his reflexes slow, he'll have problems + really too small for a middleweight and may be able to be out-punched by a Pirogesque fighter with some pop,
Donaire - hasn't really had to challenge himself yet
Linares - amazing talent, needs refining along the edges
Bradley - punches are too wide
Sillakh - possible weak chin
Proksa - not sure how well he can fight on his back foot. someone like Rubio could give him problems.
Kirkland - there are a lot. can be outboxed. needs defense badly.
