        i havent ever started off hating anybody. but pac staring at his own movie like it was a masterpiece and how self absorbed hes become i dont like him now. Confidence is one thing (you need it to fight) but watching your fave movie that happens to star you and making people who are around you all day, watch it too. that tops floyds ego even.

          Don't compare Mayweather and Pacquiao, we don't know his reason for watching his own movie he is still a humble guy

            I can't say that Rios has completely won me over yet, but I still prefer him over Ortiz. Ortiz just really bugs me to the point where I was rooting for Mayweather.

            I find myself hating more fighters that I used to like.

              Bernard Hopkins. I just hated how he cried wolf when lost to Calzaghe. He lost fair and square. IMO, it should have been a unanimous decision. He just didn't do enough to warrant a decision. However, he's won me over since then. His whooping of Kelly Pavlik was world-class. NOBODY gave him a chance to win that fight.

                Maweather- I hated his ****** ****y money persona then I actually saw him fight and was instantly amazed by his abilities. After seeing his skills it became hard not to like him as a fighter.

                Rios- His shit talking was annoying as fuck. Then I got used to his sense of humor. And his style of fighting never dissapoints.

                Vitali Klitschko- Thought he was a smug ****y human being. He's actually incredibly smart, hell both Klitschkos are. It surprised me how this mean looking giant could be so nice and intelligent. And I love how he keeps his left hand down to his kneecap when he fights.

                Khan- I'm not sold on him just yet but if he keeps winning he'll have a new fan.
