Alright lets do a boxing experiment

Good Stuff Mate...The whole Vandetta thing is a bit off to me only because it would mean you are judging someone you know personally...To have a vandetta against a totla stranger IMO is a bit off in the head...Just my opp...

But as for the rest of it I understand completely...Thats why I always give guys credit deserved but also mention I think they are ass's...If I don't like a fighter because of attitude or something I just don't like them...Can't take away from accomplishments though....Gotta give someone his due for that...Try to say a guy who won titles in different weight classes or something like that is a "Bum" so to speak since it seems to be a favorite term to toss around...is just stupidity IMO

Yeah, I hate Naz, too, but there is no denying his talent or his importance to boxing especially the lower weight classes. He made a lot of money for Barerra, Moralles, Pac, and a whole lot of others.

It's very hard for me to judge Naz objectively as fighter be cause he annoys me with both his style and his personality. I probably underrate him as a fighter because of these biases. For a long time, I underated Jones, and I still probably rate him less than most. It's hard for me to certain if I'm being fully objective.

I'm enough of a student of the game to respect Naz's natural talent and great impact on the sport, but I prefer more conventional boxers. Most of my favorite boxers are guys who might not have the greatest physical gifts, but they have worked their way to greatness. I also like guys who DO have great physical gifts and still take the time to perfect technique. Nobody worked harder than Ali, and he was about as gifted as they come. Still, at the end of the day, I prefer Frazier.

On the other hand, I hate Floyd's personality and would like nothing better than to see him lose, but I think I evaluate him pretty accurately. He's joy to watch in the ring. I root for him to finally make a mistake, but at the same time, I'm in awe of what he can do, his skill, his speed, his technique. I'll never deny he's p4p #1 right now.

The only thing that beat Naz was Himself, arrogant cunt. There was something special with him. Never mind what people say Brendan did a first class job there in nuturing him. But the egocentric arsehole, went and ruined it.

You guys there are lots of fighters people don't like to watch at all and disapprove of their tactics in the ring: Ruiz, Raheem, Darchinyan (for me), Sam peter's rabbit punches, Acelino quitting. Is this what you were talking about?

[El Kabong]

I hear you big guy, that is a very logical and reasonable approach....and by that rational Wladimir Klitschko gets the respect he deserves!




....so does Floyd Mayweather Jr., but I have always disliked him as a PERSON or you could even call him a character but as a fighter he has all the skill in the world and I have always admitted it

Agreed Naz was something special and could have been an ATG not just in the FW division but in all of boxing and the guy just let it all go..

His choice I guess but just bothers me that there are a 1000 guys out there who train there asse's off and try day in and day out but have not even 10% of his ability that wish theyu had even half of it
