    Any possible chance to poke at him, you're right there. Gotta admire your consistency. Dealing with a Pac hater is just as hard as dealing with a Pac fan so you guys are made for each other.

    Just like the Calzaghe thing, wait til Saddoboxer gets in here and sees your post!

    When he's gone, you'll see a bunch of posters in here leave the forum. But there will always be another fighter who gets this type of following. I think Hatton and Calzaghe fanatics are just as worse as Pacquiao's.

    I wouldnt know. I havent had to deal with any Calzaghe or Hatton fans. I think both boxers are good but Hatton fans may go over the top.

    I have and holy crap! Those are some crazy people. Calzaghe and Pacquiao fanatics are on the same level. If I'm a fan of Pacquiao and Pac huggers have the ability to make me go "WOW! Is this guys is serious!?" Calzaghe fans have made me say the same things as well.

    I haven't really had problems with Hatton fans. Just when they boo national anthems but that's about it.

    Yeah theres no excuse for booing the national anthem . That just made the Brits look like scum and Hatton got a beating in that fight.

    Hatton fans were unbelieveable before Mayweather

    then after that it kinda died down a bit.

    I've always said that if the amount of money a fighter earns is any measure of his ability, then de la Hoya is overrated. But I guess there is more to the money thing than just what happens inside the ring.

    Here are fighters whom I feel get a wee bit too much rating from people.

    Riddick Bowe:
    I've read things like "Bowe at his best/prime he'd beat Ali" or he'd beat Lennox.
    I mean really how long was Bowes prime?
    1 fight....

    Aaron Pryor:
    Such a short career, whos premier wins came over 2 fighters who were past their best days. Plus this whole "SRL ran from him" has become a line used to try and glorify him. SRL wasn't the only top fighter around so to me it doesn't mean much.

    Riddick Bowe: Damn straight!!! Have always felt the same way.

    1 fight....

    Aaron Pryor: Well... his list of victims is not exactly a who's who of boxing. But those classic wins over Alexis Arguello were, well... classic.

    Good names. See my comments above.
