What is the reason(s) you support boxers?

[RajahBell]

Here's how I rank the reasons selected in the poll.

1. Power (Mike Tyson, he's the first boxer I supported even after he went to jail)
2. Aggressiveness (I like boxers with a ton of heart, if there is no KO then its still usually an entertaining fight. Arturo Gatti comes to mind)
3. Speed and Reflexes (Speed kills and its fun to watch a fighter with a combination of 1, 2, 3. Pacquiao).
4. Race/Nationality(I'm not going to lie there is a sense of pride when you see someone like yourself have success in the ring. I'm not Polack, but many of my friends are and we got on the Andrew Golota bandwagon)

Performance within the ring. Intensity, heart, skillset, ect.

Something their actions outside the ring will be not to my liking (I'm look at you, Broner), but that doesn't change me respect of appreciation for what they do in the ring.

You haven't voted in the poll.

It's okay, you don't need to if you don't feel comfortable doing so. It's pretty obvious to everyone why you support certain boxers, and why you consider some robberies to be robberies but not others.

That seems to be common with you. According to you, Mattyhsse-Judah was a robbery. But Cunningham-Adamek 2 wasn't. Hypocritical much?

And according to you, Matthysse-Judah, Matthysse-Alexander and Kotelnik-Alexander were not robberies, but Cunningham-Adamek II was.

Hypocritical much?

According to me, Alexander lost both fights. The Judah fight could have gone either way. According to you, Adamek won comfortably against Cunningham in the rematch and you and I both know why you believe that. That's the difference between us.

That he is. Guy looks the other way when it's boxers that he likes and talks shit for the same thing with others he doesn't.

Shut up

Why should I if I know you don't want to hit me?

Jerkin' your chain.

you didn't provide a reason that accurately reflects why I gravitate toward certain fighters.

As for the rest of your post, you shoudln't apply your method of choosing fighters to evryone else. And, even if I was the worst racist in the history of the world, it still doesn't change the fact that the HWT division hasn't been good for a while, viatli hasn't beaten the 2best opponents he faced, and wlad has gotten KTFO by men who were vastly inferior to him.

technical skills yo!!!!!!! and personality i love a sht talker just makes it more exciting!!!! i really love it all but a good technical boxer is what i love to see

[The Hammer]

I like an intelligent fighter of good character with excellent skills plus KO power.

Fighters like Sergio Martinez, Mikey Garcia, Wladimir Klitschko, and Mikkel Kessler fit that description.

It's good to see in the poll result character is important to other people besides myself. I won't support a woman-beater like Jürgen Brähmer or Floyd Mayweather.
