I'm not advocating breaking of the rules, potentially harming another boxer or any of those things.... just sometimes, seeing some blatantly break the rules cracks me up.
I don't really like it at top level - Burn hard and his head was never a good sight for someone that's a future HOF.
But Carlos Maussa so blatantly doesn't give a **** - back of the head, balls, headbutts, rubbing of cuts, the lot - that he just cracks me up, period.
I remember Calzone in October last year having a very off night against Kabary Salem. Salem had such a joi de vivre in his blatant fouling that I couldn't help but like the guy. He wasn't a sneaky guy, letting the head slide in on the ref's blind spot, he was like "look at me, I'm putting the nut in, and I just don't give a **** - in fact, I'm enjoying myself doing it."
There was another prominent example but it's slipped my mind for now... but those are definitely two guys that I find amusing, and would actually consider watching just to see how blatantly they bend the rules.
