      I like them unless it ruins a good matchup for the favored fighter in the future. Like if either Gamboa or Lopez loses to a nobody before they fight eachother, even if it was a good fight, I wouldn't be 100% happy.

        It's a catch 22 for me. I like it because it breaths new talent into the game but I also dislike because it messes up future fights that have been lined up(if they have). Another reason I like it is that it shows hard work pays off and you see a mans life possibly changed for the good and vice versa for the bad. It has its pluses and minuses.

          I almost always go for the underdog & I love upsets but to be honest it rarely happens on the elite level.It's mostly contenders & prospects that fall flat on their faces.What I do hate though is when the underdog wins & he still gets handed an L.Like with Alexander,I will admit that although they gave him the Kotelnik fight,he shouldn't have come away with more than a draw.

              Root for the underdog.

                If I have no bias towards either fighter, I'll typically root for the underdog. Unless its an undefeated prospect in a situation in which if he loses, it just means they both suck.
