    Because they are fickle...

    This also poses the question; why do fans love fighters who are undefeated?

      becuase they've beaten everyone in front of them..no harm in that..but if said fighter ever loses..his truen fans will remain fans

        I've said that many of times. pretty much everybody loses. Only a small margin of fighter go undefeated.

          i **** on fighters that show an obvious loophole in their skills, but are still highly regarded by boxing "experts" and nuthugging fans. For example, i ****ted on hatton a couple of times after the mayweather loss because i saw it for what it was. most ppl didnt see what i saw until the pacquiao fight.

          In ****ting on angulo because i dont see why he gets sooooo much hype, for no ****ing reason....... if cintron was worth anything, he wouldve put angulos ass to sleep with a hard right over that lazy ass angulo jab

            My theory is that a lot of posters aren't very far from their childhood years where they watched cartoons and read comic books and they had their superheroes who never lost. This is just an extension of those fantasy years.

            When the cold reality of a loss seeps, their hero's invincibility is exposed they get sad and like a child go on to a new hero.

              Rarely do I had a loss against a fighter. That's what's supposed to happen when you take chances

                  why do fans overrate a fighter because they've never lost?

                      Talk about the pot callin the kettle black LOL

                      Weren't you mocking Cotto for his loss to Margarito? I've seen you **** on many fighters when it's put in comparison to anything dealing with Floyd.

                      I can bring up the quotes if you'd like
