Jermain Taylor and Miguel Cotto are also not fans of boxing.

That's one thing I like about Winky. You'll see him at most of the fights.

What you do doesn't necessarily define who you are.

Lot of boxers aren't fans of the sport. Maybe because how much of their time it takes, that they can't or don't wish to follow it?

[Zarco]

i see. wasnt aware of boxers who arent fans of the sport, but yet fight as professionals.

[Texanballer]

Most boxers dont like boxing. It is there job and when they are not training they dont want to do anythign associated with it.

[MANGLER]

I imagine a lotta fighters are passionate about their own careers, but not the sport as a whole.

A common misconception about professional athletes is that they love the sports they participate in.

The difference is, Pro Baseball and Football players have press agents that tell their players to tell the media they love the sport. It helps their fan base OBVIOUSLY.

But truth is, if you've been doing something everyday since you were 7 years old, you are bound to become very, VERY tired of it
