    I know that but some humility and dignity in a loss goes a long way.

    Kostya was humble when he lost to Hatton, he could have complained about the low blows.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Miguel Cotto didn't take losing to Margarito all that well, but then again Margarito cheated soooo yeah I think he had the right to flip the fuck out about his Uncle not catching that.


    Kermit Cintron...dude JUMPED out of the ring vs Paul Williams instead of lose inside it.


    Zab Judah choking Jay Nady comes to mind.

    James Butler sucker punching Richard Grant.

    Naseem Hamed didn't take losing very well, he up and quit the sport.

    Hopkins is one of the worst. He had some stupid excuse for every loss. They weren’t even clever excuses either

    Ricardo Mayorga didn't handle losing all that well but hell even when he won fights he was classless then too....he was like a pro wrestler that way never breaking character


    Oh Fernando Vargas after De la Hoya smacked him around.....Fernando didn't even allow the hatchet to be buried after that fight.

    He ran off to the lockerroom didn't even shake Oscar's hand. I think Fernando had talked so much shit prior to the fight that he felt like an asshat...Oscar just broke him down he was quicker and cleaner, but also more powerful, he took Fernando's heart that fight.

    Naz beat the great Manuel Galvo before he retired being booed by fans.

    For sure, but he likely considered the possibility of losing beforehand. I think showing humility and literally being used to losing are different Also,. Tszyu comprehensively lost over however many rounds it was, it’s different than being in the fight and gettingstarched.

    Just checked Kostya being interviewed after the Vince Phillips loss 53.30sec and he is very humble.

    are you trying to undermine my wisdom? Let’s see how humble you are when your wife and kids have to ID you at the morgue. Who has a wife and kids anyways, fucking loser.
