I woke up at 3AM to watch Pavlik-Taylor 2, if I was just a Hatton fan why would I bother getting my ass up at 3AM ?? JT Rock stated "Lefty is a Hatton fan not a boxing fan". Thats bullshit. Thats like saying Danny G is only a Cotto fan or ds91 just a Hopkins fan just because we have our favourites. Why don't I have an account on the Hatton forum ?? I'm also a massive David Haye fan. I'm even a big Amir Khan fan (Though his opposition sometimes irritates me) and I'm a Michael Katsidis fan. Ask ICB me and him had a big debate over who has the better record, Khan or Froch. That comment from JT wound me up but I'm over it now. I know I dislike Mayweather but I admire his skill and respect his game, I've said that a couple of times before.
    Hey man, I didnt say anything different than what people were already implying... You can be wound up all you want bro, but the proof is in the pudding and is the general consensus of your peers

    The thread isint hidden anyone can read it and draw there own conclusion, but I think most will see the consistency in the theme and CONSTRUCTIVE crticism toward you
    Say what you want man but I know myself I ain't just a Hatton fan. End Of.

    It's a little annoying when people "hate on" fighters by using poor logic and bad comparisons.

    I personally don't like Lennox Lewis, but people will say stuff like "he can't be great because he avoided a Vitali rematch" when greater fighters in the past avoided rematches to actual controversial fights. And they didn't retire, they kept fighting and didn't give those guys rematches.

    Or when people knock fighters like Roy Jones or Floyd Mayweather, they'll use poor logic like "a true great cares about legacy and not money". Yeah boy, that Sugar Ray Robinson, he sure didn't care about money, it was all legacy for him.

    Some of the "haters" are the most fun to argue with.. especially when you checkmate them

    This place would boring if everyone agreed.. or .. everyone settled their differences like sensible adults

    It just sucks when arguements go way out line... Like name calling, throwing race in the conversation, steoreotypes, and personal attack with family members, etc.

    OH MAN! You beat me to it! I was going to say the exact same thing! Debates and arguments are a part of forums, but keep it on topic.

    Though no one has said this to me yet, "you don't know boxing," "only a real boxing fan could see," "my boxing knowledge is much greater." I think that's so insulting. People join this forum because they love to talk about boxing, want to find out about boxing stories, and/or learn more about the sport. I admit, I'm not an all-knowing, but I know enough about it that I can post my thoughts and defend my statements. This is about opinions and just because one sees it one way doesn't mean everyone HAS to see it the same.

    ALSO! I hate it when people stereotype others by their favorite fighters. I find myself having to always throw a disclaimer everytime I talk about Pacquiao. I've been into boxing way before his time as a fighter. I don't want to have to but I feel people will just label me a "Pacfan" just because my profile pic has him on it.

    Yeah that stuff is taking it too far.. but most of the morons that take threads in that direction get flushed anyway.. the ones that don't, ignore them.

    Sometimes it's fun to "hate", to see what kind of excuses and nonsense people will come up with to defend their fighters.

    Some of my favorites:

    "Trinidad only lost to Hopkins because of 9/11"
    "Vitali's eye was cut because Lewis probably tampered with the gloves"
    "Prime Lewis never could have beaten Vitali"
    "Almost all of the ringside press said De La Hoya was robbed against Mosley!!"
    "Wlad's loss to Sanders was not brutal, because it was a TKO and not a KO. A TKO can't be brutal"
    "Wlad only lost to Brewster because he was poisoned"
    "You just bash Vitali because of racial hatred"
