Characters in boxing

Arreola's loud shout out of mutherf---er last night signals character potential. Yep. I see him embarassing the HBO team down the road and that will qualify him for my Hall of Fame.

Boxing doesn't NEED characters...seeing how it's an individual sport it does attract them though.

I don't care to see any more jerks than I have to in a given day...I especially don't want to pay to see them

My favourites are always the characters...or usually the people I hate the most. I used to want to see Haye knocked out so badly.

Floyd and Eubank were my 2 favourite boxers...for me I loved how they pissed people off and no matter how hard their opponents tried they couldn't shut them up or prove them wrong.

I think characters are extremely important for the sport of boxing. If you don't have character how can the people care about you? Characters are very important if the sport is to attract more casual fans and keep them imo.
