Which boxers do you hate?

[Beanflicker]

Hate is a pretty strong word. They only guys I really HATE are the criminal scumbags in the sport like Margacheato.

Other than that, I love to root against British fighters. Mainly because I can't stand the majority of British boxing fans and British boxing analysts/commentators. So goddamn unappologetically biased and pig headed. Ricky Hatton's bunch were so bad I thanked god when Floyd iced him. I know there are a lot of chaps from England who don't fall into this catagory (a lot on this site), but the large group that do have soured me so much I will more often then not root against British fighters, just for fact that its disappointing this horrid group.

CALZAGHE times 1000

Both Klitschkos

Pavlik I'm not crazy about

Tarver

Chad Dawson I'm not crazy about either

Donaire for bein a lil bitch and not fighting ANYONE since beating Darchinyan

Paul Williams

Mayweather gets on my nerves some times with his mouth

what is there to hate about calzaghi?

i can kind of understand people disliking people like mayweather or froch or haye coz they are out spoken (I likie them all)

but calzaghi is pretty down to earth and unassuming

is it coz he is good?

I hate his Dad mostly. But he stayed coddled in England for a long time until the Lacy fight when he was already a slap happy old man. He still kicked Lacy and Kessler's ass but yeah I didn't like him til the whole cocaine scandal thing where he was unfairly victimized by some prick.

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Actually yeah, I genuinely HATE The HBO commentary team. I'll edit this post to ellobarte later.

Right now i'm just eager to express my hate

they are rubbish, but it doesnt lead to hate

mind you when that dude commentated on that contender thing in newcastle that time, cant remember his name, used to have something to do with training tyson. You know the event what robin reed and anthony small fought on?

anyway there was him and a couple of english guys commentating, one of the english dudes was duke makensie i think. and the emerican commentator completely spoiled the event for the tv viewer, he wouldnt shut up and someone else would try and say something and hed just carry on rambling crap, i had to watch it with the sound down in the end

[Drago]

was it me or the hoff?

Maybe you and hoff look alike.

Wait a minute.

Is it Michael Knight or David Hasslehoff?

Now I'm confused.

Lol

think it was that one that was in baywatch?

Agreed, I see nothing to dislike in Calzaghe. There are holes in the resume, but it's the same in all the elite boxers these days. There is no excusing that in any of them. I've always loved Calzaghes aggresive style and ability to adapt come what may. He is also a likeable enough chap from what I have seen in interviews too. He's hardly a Floyd Mayweather type. He doesn't beat up women nor rave in a homophobic and racist manner. He seems alright compared to a lot of the other boxers out there.

by all accounts calzaghe is considered by many in the know to be one arrogant little prick

doesnt effect my opinion of him one bit, i like him as a boxer not as a person


floyd mayweather
junior witter
anthony small
chris arreola
naseem hamed
kermit cintron
antonio margarito


these are the guys i`ll reserve my hatred for

[Gandalf]

No, I disagree with that. Obviously he is proud of being undefeated since being a teenager and rightly so. I see nothing arrogant in being proud of your accomplishments. He knows his own self worth and that is not neccessarily a negative character trait.

I quite like how he comes across as a person and am of course a fan of the boxing. My impressions are all from interviews. I obviously have no idea what he is really like, but see nothing to suggest that he is all that rotten.

[Gandalf]

Kermit Cintron is a good call actually and Margarito is a no brainer. Nobody likes him except Miliscar...something or other.

[erics44]

i like margarito

yes he cheated which im not a fan of

he took some punishment against cotto tho and made it a fantastic fight coz of his style and aggression

im looking forward to the pac fight, i dont reckon it will be a walk in the park that most are saying

could margarito really have been mentally right against mosley considering? i think his chin will hold out and i think it will be an exciting fight
