            I was always a Barrera guy so I didn't like Morales. Now I root very hard for him.

            I think it's a generational thing for me. If you were a fan in the late 90's-early 2000's you just root for guys from that era even if you disliked them during that period.

            Tarver's another one...I HATED him in his day, but I found myself pumped when he ko'd Danny Green.

              thats some real talk there!!!...I hated Tarver big time but I was cheering for him to take Green out though...so true about the generation thing as well....I've always respected his game but I never cheered for Morales until he fought Diaz and Maidana

                Definitely Mayweather, I thought he robbed Oscar and Castillo, but I came to appreciate his boxing skills and his "God given talent" after the Mosley fight lol.

                Chavez jr too. Last year, I would have said Martinez beats him, but what a brutal TKO win it was against Sergio on September 15...

                (I see the future)

                  I always thought he was a crybaby, but after he gracefully accepted defeat after Andre Ward dismantled him, he earned my respect.

                  Then he went on Twitter complaining that the fight could of went either way and he lost it all again.

                    Back in the day Floyd, B-Hop & Tarver. Hate is too strong a word though. Disliked suited me better.
