    Is there a universally liked/respected boxer?

    I can't think of any fighter that doesn't have haters. Even poor Gennady, who's done absolutely nothing wrong, has some de****able haters.

    Name some fighters you think is well liked by all.

      there's two simple level headed dudes named Gary Russel Jr and Terence Crawford who should fit the category of being liked,but for some reason pac fringe fans and mostly floyd haters dont like them.They have done absolutely nothing wrong to garner hate but they have it anyway, just like Andre Ward.If u think GG is hated then what do you call those guys?

              Nah, if he was fighting right now the GGG/Kovalev haters would hate Arguello

              Duran gets called a skillless brawler all the time aswell as a quitter. I remember when they did a fantasy fight thread between Duran and Floyd. Floyd fans compared Duran to Baldomir and kept saying "No Mas".

                I think a lot of it is ridiculous fans hating on fighters. Take Pacquiao. In all honesty, there's no reason to really dislike the guy. The same goes for Cotto to name a few.

                    There's no Reason to hate Pacquiao yet he's probably the most hated boxer in NSB. Cotto is arrogant and a whiner but I remember hearing how a Cotto fan got killed by Mayweather fans simply because he was supporting Cotto.
