    Flashy fighters vs. Humble fighters

    After watching all 5 fights tonite I realized how diverse boxing is in terms of personality demeanor and how each fighter conducts himself in the ring. Do you guys typically like the flashy, talkative, taunting type ala Kevin Johnson and Paulie Malignaggi or do you guys like the subdued, quiet but game fighters such as Tim Bradley and Lamont Peterson??? I think both personalities carry their own respective fan bases but is one particularly better than the other???

        I like both but I prefer humble fighters since I really enjoy a polite fighter beating a trashtalker like Barrera/Hamed, it's sweeter. I don't mind about being a ****y, flashy fighter since they have sportmanship.

            You've lost your mind. Mayweather and Paulie are very different.

            I sent you a PM.

              Ditto. Focusing on fighters' personalities is *******.

                Yet you sharply criticize PAC's personality every chance you get.
