Boxing's Nice Guys?

[Scott9945]

I know there have been many nice guys in Boxing, my list of nice guys in Boxing are: Louis, Marciano, Tszyu, Cotto, Mosley, Martinez, Bute, Ward, Tua, Vitali, Wladimir and Pacquiao

I've met David Tua, and I wouldn't describe him as very nice.

How about Johnny Owen?

I saw Tua by himself at the fights about 10 years ago and tried talking to him. He was very aloof and I got the hint right away. Most fighters that I've met were at least good for a smile. The only other fighter I've met who wasn't cordial was Jeff Fenech.

I never met him, but I've heard the same thing more than once about Forrest.

Should have told him he was a slow plodding predictable fat midget and legged it!

Seriously though i cant be done with guys like that especially when his greatest achievement was being mentioned on an episode of Family Guy!

Really? I've heard from others he is very nice actually I don't remember who but a person said Tua was the nicest athlete he has ever met

I get you but it could have been his mode, also he doesn't talk trash he is a humble guy I was going by the thread topic but I'm sure a lot of fighters are nice usually.
