Boxers who you have turned on

I read this earlier... "As much as the fans want to see it reach a natural conclusion against George Groves, with me knocking him out again, I feel personally I gave him his chance and he blew it - he can't cut it at world level," said the champion.- C. Froch - Source BBC I've stated I'm no longer a Froch fan, outside the ring his personality has turned me. My question is which boxers have you changed your opinion on either because of what they have said before or after a fight...you can still like them inside the ring or admire their talent. With the quote if you can find it....

You don't know them. Their personalities are magnified in the public eye because they are boxers and the whole sport is based on ego/arrogance. Granted you hear an edited version but do you ever know anyone... I agree generally. I dislike most boxers personalities or at least their media one. But I like someone I feel I can connect to or who is honest with me and themselves. They also aren't all ego maniacs Darren Barker for example

I don't give a flying fuck about any boxer's personal life. What matters is that they do inside that ring...

So you aren't allowed to judge a persons character outside the ring? You don't know them. Their personalities are magnified in the public eye because they are boxers and the whole sport is based on ego/arrogance.

Bradley used to wind me up with all his thank God stuff. But I do like him now - he seems like a great guy. That really winds me up for some reason - thanking God. Fair enough if you are going down the route of thanking God for keeping you and your opponent safe but outside of that religion should not be mentioned in a boxing ring. Not that i was ever a fan of robert guerrero but his praise jesus speech after the floyd fight was very bizarre

I think your response only serves to highlight your own stupidity So you aren't allowed to judge a persons character outside the ring?

Anyone who gets "turned" by a boxers personality outside the ring must be in possession of a full working vagina. I think your response only serves to highlight your own stupidity

Most recently, Marquez. I was a Marquez fan but his comments and attitude after the fight have been a total turn off. Everytime I hear him on Golpe A Golpe I just cringe at the excuses he uses to not give Pacquiao the rematch, I can safely say it's been a 180 degree turn for me.
