Ray Leonard - Smug and conceited
Roy Jones - Similar to Leonard in premadonna'ism
Naseem Hamed - Arrogance personified
Gary Stretch - I've met him, he's a prick
Aaron Pryor - He cheated in my opinion
Antonio Margarito - Same as Pryor
Jack Dempsey - I smell a rat in the Willard fight
you forgot trinidad.
and was there a dirtier fighter than hopkins for the last 20 years ?
Muhamed Ali, he went overboard in trash talking to Fraiser. He was way out of order. People who say Paulie Floyd David Haye trash talk none have nothing on the Ali trash talk. He was so bloody annoying with his BS. PPl on these boards seem to think he is some kind of prophet **** his bad mouth.
in every fight of him that i saw. wright (headbutt in round 1) , calzaghe (clinches) , dennis milton (headbutts , clinches , pushes , hitting on the break , elbows , whatever) , gilbert baptist and glen johnson : same as milton but less extreme.
hopkins is a professional wrestler par excellence.
he just doesn't have the balls to compete with the likes of him in MMA , because there he may be disqualified for his fouls , so he calls MMA gay.
Usually when I don't like fighters, it's just because their style doesn't appeal to me.
Joe Calzaghe and Vitali Klitschko's styles are just so damn ugly that I don't like them. Especially Vitali. Edwin Valero's style is on the ugly side too.
Usually I don't care too much about fighters trash talking, but Antonio Tarver's trash talk just made me dislike him. He lost a fair decision to Roy Jones in the first fight but cried about it for days about how he was "robbed". Maybe if he actually let his hands go and wasn't worried about Roy's body shots, he would've won the fight. After that I didn't like him for awhile. Later on I didn't care anymore.

I don't remember anything about Trinidad wearing plaster-wraps..
In which fight did this happen, and did he get banned?
I think you may be under selling Hopkins defensive abilities, and mistaking some of his inside tactics as fowls.. Very few of his opponents, if any have been stopped on cuts which kinda rules out elbows and intentional head-butts..

many of his opponents were cut by his headbutts but the official stoppage reason is not told. anyway , elbows and headbutts really help to hurt an opponent. and there are also the clinches against relatively (for him) dangerous opponents and pushes always help to be credited with a knockdown in a corrupt card.
