Thomas Tate called out Roy Jones and talked ridiculous smack leading up to the fight and was humiliated n stopped in the second round.
Jorge Luis Gonzalez called out Riddick Bowe for close to a year saying pretty nasty stuff n paid the price by suffering multiple knockdowns.
Edwin Rosario called Julio Ceasar Chavez the worst word to call a Mexican, then insulted his mother, and took a horrible beating before being stopped in the 11th. Chavez ruined him that night by giving him such a comprehensive n extended beating. Especially to the body!
Haugen talked a lot of shit about JCC and famously said that JCC's opponents were mostly Mexican cab drivers, then he got destroyed.
This one is sort of different but Vivian Harris stalking Floyd mayweather only to get knocked out by some door to door vacuum seller in Maussa..
Amir Khan's chase of Floyd for years springs to mind, he always said he was 'one or two fights away from Mayweather' but then lost to Peterson and Garcia :lickish: Beyond that David Haye's little toe still gets mentioned in Britain after his antics calling Wlad out were quite frankly shameful.
Jeff Lacy pursued Calzaghe for a while. He and Gary Shaw both took shots at Calzaghe in post-fight interviews :-X
Lacy crushes Pemberton, calls out Calzaghe
Joey Gamache actually went to the executives running HBO and begged them to make the Gatti fight. Fool almost got decapitated for his stupidity
Vargas had been calling out Oscar for years.
I believe it started from Oscar not acknowledging him at a boxing gym or something. You know how sensitive those cholos are.
From t I remember, it started in big bear. Both guys had training camps there and while vargas fell on his ass while jogging, oscar supposedly laughed at him while jogging right past him. LolQuote:

I also remember beers being thrown on him as he descended from the rafters. Speaking of Naz, I just saw a YouTube vid ( Froch-groves fight crowd) my God did he blow up. He looked like he was 210 lbs. at least.
On a smaller scale, Israel Cardona was quoted as saying that Spadafora didn't even belong in the same ring with him. He proceeded to get whitewashedfor the IBF title back in 99.
Oh yeah, right. Lmao as I'm typing this.Quote:

I've heard it was because of an incident with Oscar and a too young girl that Oscar had gotten away with in Mexico. Vargas wanted "justice".Quote:

Remember a fighter calling out James Toney and he was in the crowd. Toney came to the centre of the ring and said lets do it. That was funny.

Brazilian rich boy Michael Oliveira (billionaire grandfather left him millions) who fights at Junior Middleweight decided he wanted to make a name by calling out Brazil's favorite son Acelino Freitas. Ignoring the fact that Freitas had been retired for 5 years and had never fought above Lightweight. After watching film of Oliveria, Freitas requested 3 months to get ready and accepted the fight. Weeks before the fight the Oliveira camp threatened to pull out if the location wasn't changed. Due to Freitas popularity and he being a current state legislator, Oliveira felt the deck was stacked against him. So the fight was moved to Uruguay. Brazilian ref Antonio Soares was rejected by the Oliveira camp cuz he was Brazilian. They felt he would favored the more popular Brazilian in Freitas. American ref Dale Grable was accepted and than rejected by the Oliveira camp. Back in early 2000 Freitas knocked out Lemuel Nelson in 2 rounds. Grable was the ref. For some reason they figured he would favor Freitas. They finally settled on Panamanian ref Hector Afu. Freitas said nothing through out all the changes and demands. He just went out there and beat that boys ass on fight night
Who can forget Michael Katsidis shouting out " What are you looking at" to Robert Guerrero only to get battered , what a prick.
