    Hell no.

    If that were true then we would have many more undefeated fighters

      You'd also have a lot of 0-100 100 via 1st round ko records.

        I think it has to, to a point. The more people like you and depend on you, the more pressure one might feel to train harder and not quit. If you aren't very liked and not even your mom likes you, you would probably fight for yourself all the time and lets face it, people have low self standards.

          It could work as a disadvantage also, Floyd Patterson said that during a staredown his opponent smiled at him , i don't remember if he knocked him out but it killed his agression.

          He said that was the reason that he would never make eye contact with an opponent before a fight in the pros.

              no but it does effect your marketablility and popularity..
              Mayweather would be making DLH numbers a long time ago if it wasn't for his attitude.
              Despite having a big opponent put infront of him like Ricky Hatton, it did less then Mayorga v. DLH did.

                Yes. The all-time greats were such nice guys, fighters like Ray Robinson, Carlos Monzon, Jake LaMotta, and Sonny Liston. Especially the way they treated women.
