Does anybody else hate the fanboyism that dominates the boxing talk board?

[Ghost]

Well I quess I am the exception to your post. I have no favorite boxer. I am a Fan of the sport of boxing. I will watch the great fights and the shitty fights.

Boxers come and go. The sport stays.

I don't play the what if, could of been, if this happened games that are played on the main board.

[b]To me, it is all about the fight on the night. Did the fighter I thought would win, win or lose. If I can watch the fight and see the outcome, I know the "Why" of it.]/b] Do not have this burning desire to revisit it a thousand times over and over with ,What if's.


But thats just me.

Ghost,

Although I sincerely agree that that'd be a great way to see the sport.... I'll never see it that way nor do I see how a human can(though you're not you're dead)...

I just don't see how you can't have a favorite in a fight or be slightly bias to another fighter due to whatever attributes...

Like... You never idolized a boxer?

You can not possibly look at each fight as it's own with no bias cuz to do such is impossible...


Ghost, you know I respect you but what you say is simply impossible...


I'm not challenging you it's just simply the truth...

You have or never had "A" favorite boxer?...

Surely you jest, sir

POB, I respect all boxers and yes there are some I like to watch more than others when they fight but that does not mean I am pulling for them to win either. None of them are "My" favorite fighter. I do not have one.

If I can, I will watch any and all fights, regardless of who is fighting. Even if I have never heard of them before.

I don't know what to tell you POB, I am a "Fan" of the Sport of Boxing.





















Besides, if I did have a favorite boxer, he would never hear me, as I am dead.

LOL that was funny.

Again, Bilbo has a point.... That's why I don't usually go to the main board after a big fight coz it will just make me crazy. These hidden boards are a refuge and a protection to my sanity.



Talking of fanboyism, please take a look at my sig courtesy of Danny. LOL.





Pacquaio is the greatest fighter of all time.











LMAO.
