Do fans particularly follow fighters closer to their own physical size?

I mostly follow Canelo :cool2:

I sure don't. To me it's the quality of the fighter and not his size that would make me a fan.

There are so many great potential match ups in the 140 to 160 range. The biggest and best fights are taking place there. I would probably be a lhw if I could cut down to 175 and my dream would be to beat the dog **** outta Bernard Hopkins.

I'm a heavyweight and I couldn't give a crap about the current heavyweight division.

yeah I mean there surely will be a lot of casual fans at Wembley tomorrow night? Are you going btw? Nah unfortunately not - I was going to with a friend when I heard there was still the £30 tickets available, just for the atmosphere if nothing else...but I sort of missed the boat, next cheapest ones were around £70 and I thought there would be little point to pay that for a seat where I wouldn't see anything! Next time if there's a fight at Wembley though...definitely worth going. :boxing:

I'm 6'1 200 and my favorite fighters 154 and lower There are so many great potential match ups in the 140 to 160 range.

You kind of potentially have a point with this...the SMW division was created to accomodate "the average man" at 11stone, and these big SMW clashes usually gather lots of attention and excitement from the average guy. yeah I mean there surely will be a lot of casual fans at Wembley tomorrow night?

Been wondering whether there is some degree of truth to this. For example, do naturally smaller guys tend to more closely follow the lower divisions, while naturally bigger guys really like following heavyweight boxing? In the sense that you identify more with fighters who have closer physical dimensions to yourself. I'm 6'1 200 and my favorite fighters are 154 and lower

Froch vs Groves has no interest? You kind of potentially have a point with this...the SMW division was created to accomodate "the average man" at 11-12stone, and these big SMW clashes usually gather lots of attention and excitement from the average guy.

Froch vs Groves has no interest? Ill be watching it. The weight class kind of fizzled out though. Froch is still good but hes fading, Ward has been exciting in his last few fights but hes decided to waste his prime in court. Kessler was my favorite but hes shot. Havent seen any exciting new blood.

Jr welter, welter, feather, jr middle, and middle. Im a heavyweight myself but I only watch heavyweight fights when im going to bed. Froch vs Groves has no interest?

No, I don't follow fighters who are my own size. I don't give a damn what size they are I just wanna watch great fighters in great fights.

I also follow oscar de lay Hoya because I also look great in fishnets

i hate leonard ellerbe because he likes to give men sensual chest rubs.

i followed Ricardo Mayorga because he smoked cigarettes does that count? :rofl::rofl: Let's keep this going who's next?

i like manny pacquiao because he likes to bang prostitutes. i hate floyd because floyd hates women.

Yes I followed butterbean because we both are fat tubs of lard

It was meant to be a serious question.

Yes, people are getting smaller, that's why no-one watches heavyweights anymore. This obesity problem is a lie.
