Glory Hunting Boxing Fans

I guess everyone will be jumping off the Matthysse bandwagon

The Gatti/Ward fights were some of the most technically flawed fights I've seen. Yet everyone thinks highly of their fights. People on this site merciless bashed the Baldomir/Mayweather, even the HBO commentators during the fight. I think it was a good performance from Mayweather's and game effort by Baldomir. I can watch and enjoy Gatti/Ward just as much as I can enjoy Donaire/Rigondeaux. Alot of the posters on here think there has to be an absolute choice between the styles. I say if the guy is winning, unless he's cheating, or getting gift decisions by the judges, then however they win is fine by me.

Always been a fan of Lucas and knew he was on his way to the top of 140 ever since he left Soto looking like he was about to die and smashing Ajose around for 10 rounds. I still rate Pac... He was whooping Marquez intill he got KO'd and I have no doubt he will crush the face of Rios.

Following that logic Amir Khan would have a lot of fans, which is obviously not the case. Are you serious? Khan does numbers over here and is arguably next in line for Mayweather for that reason. He's a household name. Nobody thinks he's the best but he's arguably the most exciting fighter in the sport so they will watch him regardless.

As a fan I'm in it for the entertainment and if you're an entertaining boxer then I will root for you. Some fans get too emotional over one boxer and become overprotective to the point where they'd rather see him take safe fights and win rather than see him in the ring with a live lion because he might lose. How can someone like that call themselves fans of the sport? That's like a Yankee's fan preferring to see the yankee's face off against the Houston Astros rather than the Boston Redsox in the world series because they have a better chance of beating the Astros. Fanboyism is what its called.

Those 3 fight in different divisions so why not be fans of all 3? All 3 fight differently. Manny got a lot of hype due to Asia never having a boxing star like that before. Hence all of the Bruce Lee comparisons. just look at Asian pop culture, not to mention they worship American culture enormously and they love the fame aspects Exactly. This forum can be backwards sometimes. Maybe it's because I'm new. Why can't people like GGG, Matthysse, Manny and Floyd. I like them all but I haven't been corrupted yet by the agenda pushing fanatics. All of these guys are unique especially Floyd and Manny. There will never be a point in time where we will see something like them (FMJ & MP) ever again. To answer the TS question, boxing fans are fickle. Once a fighter loses their 0 or takes a loss after a big winning streak, they are pushed aside for the next hot commodity. We, as fans, have to do a better job in supporting fighters after losses and not writing them off.

The gloryhunters are the Mayweather fans, they'd rather be bored stupid and win than pick a fighter who genuinely excites them. Matthysse and Golovkin fans like to be entertained and for that reason if they lose people will still watch them (Matthysse technically already has two losses).

NSB posters are fickle.
