It's no surprise to anybody who frequents these message board that hate flows freely around these parts. Some fighters get more hate than others but I think most all fights seem to have a "hatecrew" that follows their every step in anticipation of their next move/fight in order to proclaim vile hatred upon said fighters. You name a current fighter and I'll bet you anything, people here hate him.
Mayweather - Boring, afraid to fight, hasn't beat anybody good.
Hatton - Hugs too much, has a ****ty style, hasn't beat anybody good.
Cotto - Wild, reckless, gets hit too many times.
Taylor - Boring, protected, uninspiring.
Hopkins - Old, dirty fighter, not as good as Roy Jones.
Winky Wright - Too technical, doesn't please the crowd, can't knock a guy out.
Margarito - Hasn't beaten anybody good, paper champion, overrated.
Pacquiao - Can only hit with one hand, only fights shot fighters, exposed by Marquez.
De La Hoya - Failed in every one of his biggest fights, took a dive against Hopkins, schooled by Floyd.
The list goes on and on, I could list fighters and the bull**** excuses users here use to demean their performances all night long. The bottom line is this : Styles make fights, every fighter out there has a particular style suited to their physical attributes. Some prefer to smother you and make a physical fight out of it, others prefer to box from the outside and use their technical ability to edge out a decisive win.
It's unexcusable to me for any so called "fan" of boxing, to hate on a fellow boxer. At the end of the day, whatever fighter you hate most is still more of a man than you if nothing more than, simply the fact that they have the balls to get in the ring.
