    What annoys you about boxing?

    Things that annoy me in boxing:

    * When trainers use the word baby : Cmon baby, you gotta work baby, great round baby.

    * Money over meaning: Dawson fighting Tarver instead of rematching Johnson.

    * Padded records: When a fighter is like 30-0 with wins against nobodies. Tye Fields was a good example until he got KTFO'd

    * Hate against great boxers becouse they don't fight like mexicans: Mayweather, Jones, Pernell etc.

    * The guys who think that every fighter that fought 60-80 years ago would whoop any good fighter currently.

    * Calzaghe: Just about everything annoys me about him, great chin though

                  Lol, how could i have forgot Nady, he often tries to look like a big man in the ring, thinking that he's harder than the fighters in the ring. Also his patriotic salute gets on my nerves, maybe if i was American it wouldn't trouble me as much.

                    Fighters turkey basting themselves down to ******ly low weights. - 1 hour before the fight weigh ins please.

                    Alphabetti spagetti belts - two genuine belts that cross rank would be nice.

                    Crappy mandetory's - how can a 35 year old guy who's never fought at the weight be no1 contender?

                    Frank Warren - 'nough said.
