I didnt say anyone was stopping me Lyle. Im just saying rooting for a real underdog, you have to kind of say you think he's gonna win, even in the face of overwhelming probability. But people will call you crazy for saying Pulev KO 1 for example....or Hopkins KO 1 over Kovalev. Its just that when you root for someone you want him to win but when you say what you want people think you're nuts if he is severely like 80-1 Douglas/Tyson the underdog.
No you dont. You can root for someone but not think they are going to win. People think your crazy for picking Hopkins KO1 over Kov because its 1000/1 shot. Hopkins hasnt KOd anyone in 10 years let alone in the 1st round against a quality opponent. Your just picking results you want to see even though they have no chance.
