my favorite trash talking was between hearns and hagler they acted like they were joking and have fun with each other in one interview but you can tell they really had seeing the others blood and going for the knockout on there mind
Not all the time, bro. He had some funny one's, witty one's and vulgar one's, but even his vulgar one's were way better than the crap James Toney or Floyd come's up with
I agree that he had his funny moments.
But I would never say that even his vulgar ones were "way better" than what Floyd and James come up with.
Floyd and James say some stupid shit from time to time but it never gets to the point where they're labelling their opponet a disgrace to their race.
Mayweather's trash talk is kind of boring to me, but I'll say maybe he is effective with it. Not because he's so great with words, but just acting so obnoxious and annoying that it just pisses his opponents off.
Tex Cobb was the wittiest talker. It could be trash talk towards his opponent of he could be making fun of himself.
Any one can talk shit. A child can curse but it takes a smart person with wits to get his clown on. Ali was funny. Mayorga, tasteless. Floyd tasteless.
Depends how good at trash-talkin' the trash talker is an is the gentleman fighter really a genuine gentleman, ya get it.
For example: Muhammad Ali - the greatest trash-talker to ever live! I liked his type of trash-talking, it was witty, there was actually some substance to the stuff he spewed out !
The Floyd's and James Toney's of the world, well, they're just plain out trash.
As far as the gentleman fighter.
I don't know, De La Joto is a fighter that comes up often in many fans's minds when you say 'Gentleman fighter', but at the same time, he always came off plastic to me, as if, the whole thing gentleman image is an act!
Now, Manny PACquiao, there's sincerity in his words.
Ali's trash talk was witty?
Aside from the occasional funny rhyme or two here and there most of what he said was pretty tasteless and vulgar.
If you liked that you should love Toney and Floyd.
I don't really care for the most part, although I do think that some of trash talk from the likes of Mayorga, Ali, and Bramble were pretty tasteless and cruel.
I don't mind a smack talker, as long as his smack talk is entertainin, and he actually has the fukkin balls to back it up.
What he said.
Welcome back, mang. :beerchug:
Both if they are smart.
There is class and class and ther eis smart trash talking ands stupid trash talking.
Mayorga,Barrios,Vargas and Toney did the nice badass but with a pinch of comedy trash talk.
But guys like Judah or Mayewather or Casamayor just look stupid when they talk trash since the brain doesn't et used.
On the flip side guys like Lewis,Andrade,Vazquez,Bute,Katsidis,Corrales,Gatti,de la Hoya are nice inteligent guys.
But then again Hasim Rahman is a good guy but whenever someone pushes him he goes bad.You gotta make up your mind.
Do you prefer fighter who talk trash and act like gangbanger or do you prefer fighter who acts civilized and talk with fists?
Discuss.
It depends, I don't like the trashtalking that Mayorga and Vargas do. Where they involve your family and shit, and I also don't like the one like Floyd and Berto who talk shit all day but when the challenge presents itself, they back down and retract there statement. I'd say I like the civilized gentleman type fighter.
