    True, no one is a coward if they step in the ring. But, it's more for dramatic effect and lack of a better term.

    Would you rather win like a coward, or lose like a man?

    To make it an even tougher question, imagine that this is gonna be (whether you know it or not) the biggest fight of your entire career.

    Vote. Discuss.
    Stepping into the ring to fight is enough for me to not call somebody a coward. There are just some guys that you cant stand in front of, therfore you box.

    There is nothing cowardish about "boxing", about using skill movement and speed to overcome somebodies power.

    Again, if they are in there throwin' fists I would never consider them to be cowards and neither should any of you.............Rockin'

      On certain occasions losing like a man will take you further than winning like a coward.

      I wouldn't be surprised if Arturo Gatti made the HOF before Sven Ottke and I'm quite sure that Gatti has made more money than the money-troubled Sven Ottke.

      Fritzie Zivic lost 60 times, doesn't matter, he is still in the hall of fame.
      LaMar Clark is not.

        I'd rather lose giving it my all than win by way of faking to be hit by low blows (like Bowe against Golota).

          ....fake? Are you smoking something?

          Also, you can't doubt Bowe's heart as he showed he had an ample supply in plenty of his fights.

              No, I'm drinking paint. Awesome stuff.

              Bowe is a *****. He was not tough, he was just afraid to lose face.

                He WAS losing. But he also got hit in the **** by an idiot who kept going low. Yeah, such a coward.

                    There is no such thing as winning like a *****...it doesnt exist..its up to your opponent to stop you from doing so..

                    I rather win then lose any die no matter how it looks.."I won, you lost"...simple.

                      Luis Resto won like a coward against Billy Collins.

                      But other than situations like that, I'd rather win like a "coward", or being defensive and stinking out the joint, then being exciting but losing.

                      Like when they're arguing in White Men Can't Jump.

                      I say winning is first, looking good is second.
