    It doesnt have to work in the favor of the person shit talking, it can backfire and motivate the guy more! if it wasnt for that shit talking paulie probably wouldent have got up for the fight, but that just proof that trash talking is a bonafide concept it has bearings and can change your oppenents deamonor and approach to a fight.

        Sometimes, but mostly no. It's more about entertainment.

          If you are a sensitive little creature then the trash talk works.

            You make the statement as if they are the only trash talkers in the sport, so no its not what is separating them

              I don't think so. A champion fighter isn't likely to perform poorly because their opponent talked a lot of trash. Fury won because Wlad fought poorly but I doubt he performed poorly because Fury talked so much trash. Wlad is 39 and Fury is 27 and he fought a smart and very boring safety first fight. Connor ended his fight with a wicked left hand and I don't think trash talk had anything to do with it. Conner is the best because he has natural talent and he is totally dedicated to being the best possible fighter.

                  Broner almost lost vs a shot Paulie. But I got to admit seeing Paulie almost crying was funny as hell
