    yep am a bit in between A and B.

    Don't like watching the little guys and don't like watching the journeymen (unless they are fighting an up and comer who's got people raving of course) and don't care to watch the domestic guys who aren't going to make it on the big stage. Or Prizefighter - though did watch when Audley was in it ! And am getting to stage where I can't be arsed watching fights where people are pretty sure its going the distance . I know the outcome could be different but thats way I feel - and of course we have to stay up till stupid o'clock in UK to see it.

    My knowledge is certainly not what it was 6-7 years ago and there are many big fights now I don't get to see if I'm not quick enough on youtube before they get removed the next day.

    Hardcore boxing fan. One who isn't blinded by the nationality of British boxers, too.

    Donaire is impressive indeed but generally i'm not keen on bantamweight or ligher of that. I guess since Carlos Monzon, Sugar Ray Leonard, Duran, Hearns and Haggler fights i've always appreciated welterweight-middleweight. However some divisions like light middleweight and light wealter seems to be housed with more or less those who can't match at all punchers like Pacman and Mayweather.

    I like both Felix Sturm/Amir Khan/Andre Ward-style technic boxing. But can't help addmiring Donaire, Pacman and Bute fighting. Generally it's better to have fights with different styles. I don't agree with argument that good fight is always blood and knockouts. E.g Sturm-DLH fight (2004) was one good example you can enjoy the fight with no knockouts and Gatti-style brutal bloody faces.
