    Not a boxer. But a scummy promoter like Eddie Hearn is ticking me off. Dude is a walking red flag. I can't explain it.
    Feeds welterweights like Brook and Benn to middleweights.

    Also, rumors of him sleeping with his female fighters is just unprofessional.

      M Tyson. Disgusting bully.
      T Fury. At first he was an affable clown. Then he thought he was better than Ali.

      Pac, GGG, Benny, The "Monster"....Not so much the fighter themselves but their fans. Insufferable hypocrites.
      Pac and GGG were entertaining fighters who, for the most part, (mostly GGG) fed off of absolute trash.
      This has to be one of the weirdest statements I've read on this site. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

          Very true.
          Thing is when one fan base refuses to put their guy under the same microscope of the fighter they are criticizing. Refuse to support their statements with unbiased links.

            I'm going the other way with this. And this llist is shorter anyway. Boxers, whom I appreciate, show:

            1. Dedication
            2. Good sportsmanship

            Inflated ego isn't necessary to box any more than it's necessary to lead or do anything, just ambition and hard work.

            And as for good sportsmanship, like taking a knee until your KOd opponent gets off the floor after you ended the fight, it never goes out of style.

            There's classless people in boxing, just like everywhere else. But I try not to waste time on it. The good ones stick out, even if they don't always get the headlines.

              It's true.

              We're actually not very nice generally.

              Eddie Hearn is a decent example actually of what youre saying. You could chin a guy like that and it wouldnt actually change the group dynamic. I could understand why an American fighter actually would be wary of someone like that.

              A British fighter would be more accustomed to people like him. Take him with a pinch of salt.

              We've all went to schools and you can be hard or sharp/funny and you'll have the same status essentially.

              Not just us. It is the English, Scottish, and Welsh, the Irish, and Australians i'd say. Same same. No matter how much all those want to distance themselves from the English.

              I mean it really doesn't matter what Mayweather did to McGregor in a boxing ring the poor f.ucker opened himself up to get ethered for the best part of 3 months.
