Anyway, I hate fighters that dont excite me, annoy me, disgrace the sport. So for instance Zab Judah who thinks that he needs to prove a ****** alter ego to be considered as ¨cool¨ is a disgrace to the sport, and thus I dislike him.
I dont hate fighters based on nationality.
With that said I began to hate that so-called ¨prospect¨ 2tough was ****in' on about, who's from India or something and has a clean record. I hated him because of his nationality, only because that was the only thing 2tough was accrediting to him. ¨He's Indian and his record is clean, so he must be good, one to watch! PWN!¨ = dislike straight away.
Miksterious meet 2Tough/audley. He is one of the most insane posters on here. If he were kidding, or at least if we could be confident that he were, we would not object. And he says this **** all the time. After a thousand times it gets annoying when someone has such a ridiculous opinion, no matter how tolerant you try to be initially.
90% of Puerto Rican's and American's didn't like Ruiz because he was a boring ass fighter. You never read about PR or American's posting (Do people not like Ruiz because he's PR). This is with Ruiz being the first Puerto Rican HW champion, but were realist and while we do tend to look at our fighters with slightly tinted rose colored glasses we dont totally delude ourselves and look at them through blind folds.
Why can't Brits realize we aren't excited by Hatton not because he's a Brit but because we find his ass boring, and stop throwing nationality into it. Not me but majority of American's have only seen 4 of Hatton's fights. There is nothing in those 4 fights that makes Hatton look exciting.
Remember Winky and Hopkins fought in obscurity for years because they're styles weren't captivating for American's even though they are American and they were winning fights.
Why should UK fighters get free passes when our very own fighters dont?
Its from another thread but it fits this one perfect especially since there are many threads talking about the same exact thing.
I happen to like Hatton for the mere fact he is an accessible star and seems to be a very funny guy. His gym piece on HBO was amusing with the Vodka bottle and teasing the kids. He seems like a regular guy not a Pri Madonna. I have rooted for **** fighters that I have met before just because they were nice to me. I met Lovemore Ndou once and he was great and I have been a fan ever since.
Im a fan of Ndou also he is a very tough fighter with a different trainer he can change his career around.
I have never met a fighter in person that wasn't a good guy it seems. Stuart Duncan Ndou manager talked with me for like an hour once about Soliman in particular before he was well known. This was like 4 years ago. He was hyped on Soliman and I gave him the scoop on a fighter I had seen in the gym he wanted Sam to face.
