Fighters your not a fan of but admit their talented..

Calzaghe, Taylor, Hopkins has a well of boxing IQ but not a fan he is also a master in dirty tactics. Virgil Hill, Otkke, Paulie, Chris Byrd

dirrells/dawson/ward the first two don't seem to enjoy fighting enough for me. i wouldn't be that surprised if dirrell won the rest of his fights in the tournament. dawson seemed untouchable in his last couple fights, regardless of who they were against. ward's a tough son of a bitch who just wants to win. you can say he only won because of a home town ref, but there won't be an asterisk on his record that says anything about it. and kessler didn't look so good before the headbutts/excessive holding either. with all due respect to kessler, it's not ward's fault he folded.

the one boxer I'm not that big of a fan of is Bernard Hopkins. I just really don't enjoy his fights. But hell, he's one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of boxing gloves. I agree, he has never been too exciting or too flashy in the ring and can be boring with his style but like you said, he's one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of boxing gloves.

Edwin Valero, for me his last fight showed he was improving fast.

Manny and Bhop. not a fan of either but both are great fighters and hall of famers for sure.

Another one I have to add is Gamboa, I'm not a big fan but he is definitely gifted.

I was expecting more for Valero. The Caveman is good, like him or hate him.

Speaking of Dirrell-Stevens, Andre Dirrell is another fighter I'm not a huge fan of whose talent I'll admit to. He has the potential to be a World Champion in a few years, but I think he holds way too much and could attack a bit more. Not to mention he was involved in a fight that was regarded as the most boring fight in history. It was so boring that Lou DiBella refused to put him on his cards again. I agree with you, Andre Dirrell could be a world champion without a doubt. It puzzles me why he just don't let his hands go a bit more, he could have beaten Froch. He was much faster and had better movement and should have tagged Froch coming in at ease. If he lets his hands go and mixes it up more intelligently, he could be a p4p type fighter.

For me is very easy. I am not a fan of Ali and will be; but i regard him as the greatest HW of all time.

oh and ricky hatton. dont like that guy at all.dont think he is a goof fighter either i just wanted to put it out there that i dont like him. lol

Paulie Malignaggi for sure. dont like him but hes a good fighter. im a little iffy on David Haye but i still like haye some.

What are some fighters you don't like/admire but admit they are good fighters. Now this doesn't mean I think that they are as good as they(or maybe moreso, their fans) think that they are but, Fighters (in no particular order) that annoy me, but that I know are (or were) highline pros : Joel Casamayor Lennox Lewis Carl Froch Floyd Mayweather Manny Pacquiao Joe Calzaghe Prime Roy Jones Jr. Lucian Bute Zab Judah Juan Diaz Acelito Freitas Paul Malignaggi

IMO i would start with Bernard Hopkins, I just think he holds too much he is way too dirty and he doesnt have an outstanding something ( i mean like power, speed, chin ) but the dude has some serious skills one of the greatest of our times. Of course Floyd i think its the most skilled of our era but he just overdoes the "playing it safe " style too much for me to like. Dirrell its another super talent that just doesnt have a great fan base because of his style. The K brothers deserve a mention here too

Vitali Klitschko. I'd rather watch Andre Dirrell vs Curtis Stevens 20 times in a row than watch him, but I'll admit he's very talented. You don't win that many fights by KO if your a bum, especially when you have #1 ranked fighters on your resume. I though his Arreola fight and all of his past fights were quite entertaining, it's not his fault his last opponent came in there to survive 12 rounds.

Another one would be Edwin "The Caveman" Valero, he proved in his last 2 fights he is a real force, not a fan but he is looking like he is going to have a bright future.

Paulie Maglinaggi, Not a big fan of the Guido but he is on a roll.

manny pacquiao.......he aint a good boxer imo.....but his body is a machine....great chin great power good speed....thats pretty much all you need in boxing.....i hate him for robbing my boy jmm so i will never be a fan.....
