have you ever genuinely felt bad for a fighter

when shogun beat rampage jackson in pride by kicking him in the head repeatedly.. rampage had that vacant look in his eyes. KOed with his eyes open

That has gotten ko'd? I remember when pac ko'd hatton even though it was an awesome punch and i know it is boxing and not for the faint of heart, but i seriously felt bad for ricky that night, to the poin that it made my stomach hurt lol I am not even that big of a fan either, i always liked him ,but not a huge fan. Just wondering if anybody has ever had these same type feelings happen to them.. i know it is boxing, but i guess i have a soft spot for men that are out there risking there health to please us as the fans.. unless there just total jerks

Twice, The first time was when B-hop was toying with Pavlik and at the end of the fight or round the look on Pavlik face when one of his entourage had to jump into the ring and chase hopkins made me feel really really sorry for Pavlik.

The second time was the Mayweather-Mosley fight, Most people thought Mayweather was ducking Mosley even though it was mosley who turn the fight down on numerous occasion because he was the bigger name in those days, I felt sorry for him from the 8th round on when it became apparent that he wasnt going to win and he was getting hit with precise shots to the body and counters to the face, I felt like they should stop the fight right there..

Finally i loved it when Pacquiao destroy Hatton loved it, I was glad he got rid of us his dumb fanatics who have now disappear (Thank God), Its easy to like Hatton but when you are surrounded by the dumb ones who only came into boxing around 2004-2008 just because of Hatton and refuse to acknowledge any other fighter or history of the sport then **** you.

And that goes for MARTIN of boxing banta or top knowledge or whatever he calls himself these days.

Martinez Williams 2.

I would have stopped watching boxing for life if PWill didn't eventually get up from that KO. I thought he died, no joke. He doesn't deserve that.

I remember feely bad for Colin Jones when they stopped the fight because of a huge gash acrossed his nose against Donald Curry. Jones wept in the corner as the announcers stated that it would probably be his last shot at the title. It was his last fight ever..........Rockin'

For me it has to Jeff Lacy vs Joe Calzaghe, I was supporting Calzaghe but it was so one sided you couldn't even give Lacy a share of a single round. There have been other one sided fights but Lacy was a rival champion and it was a unification title fight. Lacy had so much hype and expectation on him at the time, the majority of people in the business and staff on this site thought he would win. Instead it wasn't even competitive and Lacy used his face to block every shot in the book in what turned out to be a showcase of Joe's repertoire of punches.
I agreed with most of the press and public about his potential but the fight came to early for Lacy and he has never been the same since. The fight robbed him of his confidence, desire and belief about boxing and effectively ended his career which for me was and is really sad and I genuinely feel sorry for him.

[Sparked_1985]

Jermaine Taylor against Froch and Abraham.

Maccarinelli, everytime he's gotten the treatment.

[NChristo]

Meldrick Taylor vs Julio Cesar Chavez for obvious reasons.

John H Stracey vs Carlos Palomino, first and only time I've winced at someone taking a beating, Stracey gave his everything in this fight and it shows particularly in this picture, just from this you can tell what the belt meant to him.


That's all though, never felt sorry for anyone else.

[elhijoprodigo]

Tyson vs douglas

Cotto vs Plasterito

Tito vs Hopkins was the one where I just cried like a *****. 911 didn't faze me but that fight man, I was ready to die in the streets. Thank god no one was outside because lord knows.

Also I feel bad for the dudes that die or go into a coma in there. Like the kid who fought Delvin Rodriguez, or like the other kid who fought the other hype job chavez.

I didn't feel dab for Pwill as I believe he got a gift in their first fight.
