    I went from a huge Floyd fan, to a fan who respects his talent and enjoys watching him fight, but doesnt really like him. After he dismantled Ndou I had high hopes, but most of his fights since then have been no hopers. Im glad to see him in there against a strong young WW in Ortiz though and if he fights Khan next I may be back on the bandwagon.

      Oh i also sat spellbound when Amir fought in the olympics in 04. He sure seemed special, and still is to a degree.

      I just think his personality is a bit lame. Kind of like De la hoya just not quite as big of an *******.

      I do think he seems to be maturing a little though. So theres still hopes.

        Maybe because he was a rich a** boxer but never won any of the major fights he was in??

        That is a good enough reasons to hate for me.....(although I didn't mind him as a fighter).

          Shane Mosley: I grew up watching this dude, loved his fights. Then the whole BALCO thing happened and he said he didn't know what he was taking. C'mon son, you just gonna inject something into your body and you don't know what it is!? He lost me with that crap man.

            Mike Tyson - Hated him as a fighter (bad press over here, wanted Lewis to beat him so bad for so long). After he retired and I watched the Tyson doc and felt really sorry for the dude. I now love the guy to bits now. Love listening to what he says. Feck I even watched that pigeon program and loved it lol

            Prince Naseem - My 1st real love in boxing but the BS outside the ring, not coming back after the defeat and then wrecking that guys life in a car crash. I had some hate for the guy for a long time but now look back on his fights and just smile. So he's gone from hero to zero to overall respect for the sheer entertainment he provided.

                Sugar Ray Leonard I guess. Not so much me disliking him as me now liking some of his opponents more.

                I prefer Hearns, Hagler and Benitez now.

                  He's wasting his abilities by fighting scared instead of using his skills and natural advantages in size and athleticism. This doesn't make him a bad fighter, just terribly boring.

                    You are also running scared, from this:
