    I can't stand the Charlo brothers. Am I alone in this?

    They try too hard to act hard, the kind of behaviour you look back on when you're more mature and wish someone had kept you in line. Did they have a father figure growing up? I've seen several interviews where they act disrespectful and obnoxious towards past and present fighters, for no reason. There's nothing to gain and they still do it. Why? At first I thought they were trying to create some sort of WWE heel gimmick, but then I saw on YouTube in the comments someone saying one of them has ADHD. That would go a little ways to explaining it. They try too hard to act tough. They must have serious concerns and mental doubts to act the way they do. I wish they'd both grow up and mellow out a bit.

    Nah, you're just getting old and boring. Pretty soon you'll be complaining about the kids making all the ruckus outside and inviting strangers to satisfy your wife. It's normal.

      I'm with you, they're always pissed at the world. But that's kinda good I guess because I'll tune in to their fights wishing they get sparked. Doubt Centeno and Trout can do that to them though, but I'll be watching.

        You might have hit the nail on the head. In my younger days I'd be getting caught up in all the drama and petty nonsense. You do start to see through things more as the years roll by.

          I see them as young lions with huge egos.
          They know they have it to mix with the best but being young and with the huge confidence and ego is why you get the crap that comes out of their mouth.
          Not every world champions are humble and i think that they need the hype to go with their persona and hype which reflects to their boxing.

            I was like that before last week. I now just see them as selling a brand.

                Yea, I try not to listen to them talk honestly. I want to be fans since they are from Texas, Houston I think. The unnesecarry loud talking BS tends to turn me off unless you are really good at it and can spin it funny. They fail at both to me. I like their fighting styles though

                  Exactly, you have to create some kind of buzz about yourself to get people interested.

                  Look a ****ing McGregor, dude talked himself into millions of dollars with marginal talent to back it up

                    No. I am cool with them. There antics are entertaining.
