I was a complete disaster after Sutherland/Rainford
I didn't leave my bed for a month, besides only to urinate and defecate, and there was even a few times where I just said f**k it and went right there on the bed. I also tried to commit suicide twice.
But I'm pretty much over it though, except for the dreams/nightmares I get usually twice a week where the fight plays on a loop in my head, typically I wake up in cold sweats and having an uncontrollable crying fit
Can't stop laughing at this.
When Naz lost to Barrera, that was a sad night, I was only 11 at the time.
I was also really sad when Roy Jones got KO'ed by Tarver, I didn't cry though but I was really really sad.
When Ali died I was also down for a couple of days.
Some of the 24/7 episodes (when it was good) got to me a bit, touching stories from time to time, also when once great fighters have to fight for money at an old age while their managers and promoters from their heyday get to live bummy. Another reason why I respect Floyd Mayweather, he showed all fighters that they can stand up to the white man in the suit when they don't get treated fair and that they can be independent if they're good enough, how many champs have we seen that had to fight in their 40s for chump change?
Not cry...laid still on the couch for an hour after Tarver-Jones II.
I actually felt bad and sad for Jones Jr. after his fight with Glen Johnson. I was just thinking, wow, what a fall from grace and just concerned for his health, that he should stop fighting.
Lol, some funny stories in here. But me nah, never cried for a fight or a fighter.
Felt sad, yeah. I can remember 2 occasions where I felt sad for a few days after certain fighters lost.
Lewis vs Rahman 1
Trinidad vs Hopkins
Lennox Lewis got his revenge in the rematch
Trinidad came back, but he was never the same
