    Recently, Sergio Martinez won me over with his KO over Williams.

    I was a big Bradley fan but after his headbutting parade against Devon, i'm not longer a fan and I actually like Devon more now, I hope he can bounce back. Fuck Bradley. Cheating with headbutts is almost as bad as Margarito loading his gloves. Heads ramming in to your eyes hurts so much, i'd rather you hit me with thin plaster-like pads in your gloves instead.

      Carl Froch - because I was a massive Calzaghe fan and I didn't like the way Froch would call out Calzaghe when he was a nobody (Froch was British or European champ back then).

      I became a fan of Froch after the Pascal fight. I expected Pascal to win, but Froch was immense. He's a very entertaining fighter, a warrior, ducks nobody and always fights the best.

      WAR FROCH!

        ODH I was a big fan until the Tito fight. It made me feel like ODH had no heart.

        Kahn. I like his skills and upside but I keep hearing bad things about his team. I'm not sure if they're true or not. Still I'm starting to dislike him.

        On the other side
        Blake Griffin. When he was at Ok st. I didn't think he would be good in the NBA (like christian latener). Now I can only pray that he becomes a 76er somehow.
        The politics between Khan's team and the other fighters, Ariza and Maidana's camp have nothing to do with Amir.

        Khan and Ariza are cool with each other, no hard feelings between them. Khan doesn't negotiate with fighters himself, his team takes care of that, he's not the one low-balling them, it's his team. Khan isn't to blame.

        Don't let the politics outside of the ring detract from Amir's skills and performances inside the ring.

            Joe Calzaghe. I thought he was a fraud and was proven dead wrong.

              for Khan's sake, i hope he gets himself a new negotiating team.

              they're slowly ruining his career and the loss of Ariza is just the beginning of the end. if he can't see that now, he has no one to blame but himself.

              pity, since he has such great potential. he could reach the level of Pac and floyd if he takes care of this problem and continues to work hard on his trade.

                    These fighters really forced me to take better notice
                    after at first not appreciating them.

                    Sultan Ibragimov when he manned up in the Wlad fight.

                    Vitali, for showing a Kremlin sized heart in the Chris Byrd fight.

                    Oscar Dela Hoya, for fighting and going for broke to the bitter end against Tito Trinidad.

                    Victor Ortiz, for showing will power and fortitude in the Maidana fight.

                    David Tua, for fighting till the final bell against Monte Barrett.

                    Paul Briggs, for despite being retired he gave countrymen Danny Green all he could handle.
