    [QUOTE=crazylegs77;3222937]Was just wondering.

    Would imagine it would be career ending and no one would want to fight a gay fighter because if they lost, it would be a loss to a gay guy. Plus the clinching would be more awkward.




    why u thinking of turning Proffesional

        Seems like it has always been rumors about Emile Griffith whether he's gay or not.

          I forsee many Delahoya jokes ahead...
          Yeah, I don't think there will ever be an openly gay man in boxing. Boxing is such a macho sport so that would never work.

            There was an amatuer fighter from Canada named Mark Leduc who won a silver medal at one of the past few Olympics who was openly ****sexual.

              i have been told and have heard that Donald Curry is openly gay. i don't think that was during his boxing career, but now i heard he's out of the closet.

                  I think it's all a crap...i think if there were several gay boxers it wouldnt make a ****in difference 'cause a lot of them have equal chances of knockin the straight guy out,..so..

                  It's all ****phobic ****!

                  It is more ****ed up to fight with someone that bites your ear(i'm a tyson fan), hits after the bell, or hits you in the nuts,Or having F.Mayweather running around you with that gayish additude, thats more ****ed up ....than knowing that the guy you fight sucks **** or takes it up the butt ,after a few cold ones with his buddies.

                  The whole tattoed -look at me i'm bad ass additude is silly though, thats why i like Oscar delahoya,..he looks normal, and is knocking guys out!

                  Look at me i'm bad , so you know i'll knock you out!

                  Thats the most ****** thought in boxing, and lots of guys believe it, or,..are intimadated by it!
                  If you have a guy thats 2"something and a ****in monster, doesnt say that he's gonna win over a smaller and thinner guy!
                  THATS the beauty of boxing!

                  I think guys that wanna look bad , reveal too much of em selves, evry time i see it , its funny, and lots of times they lost the fight too,..and it happens more often, cause a lot of boxers are trying to look bad ass!
