    Top fighters that were GREAT losers?

    Guys that wouldn't throw their team under the bus, took full responsibility, didn't blame judges.

    TIM bradley, he had the gift against manny but he always seemed to take every loss graciously and point out the things HE did wrong. I thought Kovalev took the losses well, he didn't seem overly emotional and realized at the end of the day it's a game. He also complained about the robbery but I know a lot of other boxers would have never stopped talking about it

    It would be tremendously hard to be a goo loser in boxing, I mean another guy just beat you up. Who else?

    He did actually talk about it a lot after the first fight, which i thought he won.

    But the thing is, it seems that fighters might constantly complain about a loss like that, but 95% of the time it's because they're being asked about it in an interview.

      True-but cotto for example will leave the ring all together after a bad loss

        i think kovalev didnt complain about one of the worst recent robberies because he doesnt speak english that well. you know in russian he was going off. then imagine what he said after getting robbed again in the rematch lol

              You have to be delusional to think the first fight was a robbery

                Are you for real? When did he not complain about taking an L? He's surely still undefeated in his mind.
