    I can't even bring myself to support a fighter who is well liked by people on this forum.

    I'm antagonistic by nature and so automatically gravitate to those fighters who other's despise, Floyd, Froch, Margarito, Mayorga etc.

    Fighters like Winky, Barrera, Mijares (especially fucking Mijares) and Fatton just bore me to tears. But I'm sure if Mijares got convicted for animal cruelty or wife battering and everyone started hating on him, he'd get one new fan at least

    Your Mijares obsession surprises me a bit for the simple fact that there are a lot of people on here who probably don't even know who he is, or at the least have never seen him fight.

    I try really, really hard not to disrespect any fighter too much. For example, I can't stand Mayweather - big surprise there - but I respect what he does, and what he's accomplished. I try really hard to respect anybody with the guts to step in the ring and compete - even if I can't stand the person, or the persona.

    I'm sick enough to watch two guys beat each other to a bloody pulp and call it entertainment...the least I can do is show a little respect.

    That's really my view as well. At the end of the day no boxer who has achieved world class status should be disrespected by those who enjoy watching the sport, barring something inhumane thing they may do out of the ring or what not. I won't say it doesn't irritate me to hear irrational hate on a fighter by those who are basically nuthuggers, but I think to really get worked up enough about it you'd have to be just as deluded with lust for your favourite as they are.

    It bothers me when people say 'this fighter is ducking so and so' and this guy's scared of that guy'

    They're professional boxers. They fight for a living. I find it really hard to believe that they fear any particular fighter.

    I hate how some disrespect fighters for not taking a certain fight at a certain time. Who are we to tell them who to fight. It's their career.

    How could you not like Pac when he always puts on great fights?

    I don't get how anyone could be bored to tears by Barrera that just makes no sense to me.

    Barrera bored many spectators when he fought Pac for the 2nd time.

    Pac was equally accountable for that boring fight . He was the younger fighter so why didnt he fight at pace or make Barrera engage

    Barrera was old and it was his last fight. He just wanted to cruise through 12 rounds to prove that the 1st fight was a fluke. What Pacs excuse ?

    Obviosly PAC was comfortable in outboxing MAB instead of slugging it out and in turn might get himself caught and kayoed by a an OLD MAB. What's wrong with that performance anyways? As far as I can remember JMM struggled vs MAB when they fought, PAC on the otherhand won by a LANDSLIDE

    It was boring. Isnt Pac supposed to be an exciting fighter ? He was fighting a washed up Mexican coming off a loss . He should have atleast tried to make it a spectacle.

    It takes two to tango. MAB doesnt square his shoulders or stands in front of PAC to trade. What do you want? that PAC rushes in throwing no caution to the wind? and gets countered big time.
