It's worst to be a die hard hater of a fighter than a die hard fan. There are no teams in Boxing, despite boxers claiming the people around them are "Team _____[fighter's last name]". People have this perception that if you don't like other boxers then you are not a boxing fan. The thing is, even though I like different boxers, there was only one boxer that made me like boxing and that was Roy Jones. After RJ's downfall, or your favorite fighters downfall, you stick around hoping to see another boxer like him again but you never do, so you just become a boxing fan by default, you are forced to like other boxers because you realize you do actually love the sport but the guy who brought you here is now gone. It's a cycle, that's how it starts, you start by being a die hard fan of one boxer, then your taste grows and you start cheering for other boxers.
Is it wrong to be a die hard fan of a fighter?

The only thing wrong is hating a fighter just because he's better than the guy you like. Irrational hate ilke the kind kobe, lebron, floyd, derek jeter,tom brady, yankees, cowboys,duke, lakers, notre dame, man u is only because they arte at the top of the food chain in their respective sports. In many ways it makes sports great.Comment

I really cant agree with that dude. A die hard hater sounds like an ******* but die hard fans tends to sound like they have a chemical imbalance(they sound like kathy bates in misery).It's worst to be a die hard hater of a fighter than a die hard fan.

its sad when you defend the guy to the bone, you defend him so much that you get bannned on a consistent basis, Larry you are the ultimate example of a fan boy, a homer, a tard, a loser.
Floyd has done so much wrong in his life and his career but you continue to defend him and he can do no wrong in our eyes, yes it is wrong.
Take me for example Im a Dallas Cowboy fan but Ive come to the realization that Tony Romo isnt Troy Aikman and Dez Bryant isnt Michael Irvin. The Cowboys have all teh talent but no leadership. I can see their mistakes and acknowledge that they arent the best, you suck on floyd like he can never do wrong that man is disgusting and totally wrong.Comment
