    No. Why would a 0 in itself make anyone mad? I could see a loser in life who's used to losing being angry over it

      When it's a fighter that has not been tested, taking weak comp, bieng hyped as the next best thing etc.... yes! There is too many that fit in this category surprisingly Chavez/Alvarez are the ones taking the heat the most. Some of these have the talent but scared to step up ( they don't make them like they used to) Overmatched oponents are getting old.

      What pisses me off is the one's that lose the ∅ when they shouldn't have. Matthyse,Lara etc..

If Broner would shut up and fight top fighters I think boxing fans would love him.
        Pretty much ^^^^^

        It only bugs me when they answer a question with...
        "I still got my 0"
        "I still got my 0"
        "I still got my 0, dough"
        "I still got my 0"



        Those are the kind of guys that will be CRUSHED if the 0 ever does go. Absolutely C-R-U-S-H-E-D.

          I agree forsure!! "He's technically undefeated" doesn't get the same respect given as "I still got dat 0" does. All that "0" is really is just a bargaining chip for mo money.

            it doesnt make me mad.. as long as the fighter truly deserves to be undefeated..
            but yes, someone shouldnt brag about it if they have like 20-0 wins facing tomato cans..

            and i agree with the other poster, if its bradley, it heats me up, bradley fans...

              I don't mind brashness, confidence. He is a talented fighter.

              But Broner just comes off as a weird ass cat, sometimes.

                A Undefeated Record In Boxing Today is a ***IN JOKE! It is also ruining the sport because all these guys are trying to PROTECT that Undefeated record and the Networks and Promoters are ALSO trying to protect a lot of these young fighters Undefeated Records

                You can kinda point the finger at Mayweather, he is a Gift and a Curse to the sport of boxing, now these fights feel they MUST REMAIN UNDEFEATED to become a star and a DRAW in the sport of boxing BECAUSE OF HIM

                But what they don't know is that people rank Mayweather HIGHLY because of his OVERALL SKILLS...not because of his damn Undefeated Record

                    i think also you have to look at how often people fight as to why fighters dont want to lose. In the old days you lose and your going to fight 4-5 more times that year maybe, you could be back in contention in no time... now you lose and it could take a year or more to get up with the big boys (and big paydays) hence fighters dont take tough fights...

                    well thats the perception anyway, several fighters have shown it is possible to come quickly from a loss if you keep fighting tough opposition (froch comes to mind).
