Zab Judah with his Super Judah shtick, referring himself in third person and often saying "Super Judah is back", usually after a horrible beating. It's like he thinks that he is/was Roy Jones; Super Roy, without the accomplishments or win streak to back it up.
Shannon Briggs is a another one. Jeff Mayweather was his trainer for a little while before he left his camp saying that Briggs was too ****y and expected everyone to kiss his ass and tell him how great he is, yet unlike Floyd Jr he wasn't willing to put in the work. According to Jeff, he skipped out on road work. He was talking himself up so much prior to the snuff film beating he took from Vitali, you would think that he is a legend on the streets of Brooklyn and a world outside of it doesn't exist.
The Chin Checkers - These guys had a bit of notoriety for knocking people out until they themselves got knocked out. These guys, particularly Curtis Stevens, had such huge entourages, you would think that they made 200 Million dollars and won the World Heavyweight Title like Iron Mike. I bet they still view themselves as greater than they really are, smearing certain fighters who keep producing wins after win but who don't box in a style that is 'BK' approved.
Paulie Malignaggie - He has mellowed down a bit after years of humiliating defeats. Remember at his peak how ****y he was. That slick Brooklyn boxer attitude of looking down at other fighters who don't stick and move and dance around. He almost looked at Cotto as a one-dimensional bum prior to their match-up. He berated Ricky Hatton for his lack of skills/ability, even calling him a bum at one point. It's funny because he still has this false sense of thinking that he just had a bad performance against Bum Hatton. It never occurred to him that his Boxing abilities just aren't up to par as those of his idol Floyd Mayweather.
Have I missed anyone?
And now with this Brooklyn face-off between Judah and Malignaggie for the "King of Brooklyn" crown or something? Are you kidding me? Judah is acting like it's some kind of mob turf war and the streets of BK belong to him. Do Jay-Z and his lyrics have something to do with people overrating Brooklyn and their own worth because they were born there?
