fighters that are classy out of the ring always appealed to me.
like oscar bonavena rolling around in his jag smoking on a cuban cigar that he lit with a 24kt gold plated lighter. then he gets whacked for ****ing some brothel owner's wife. at least he went out experiencing the pleasures in life, albeit too short of a life, goin out at age 33.
Alexis Arguello was also a classy gentleman
Most liked fighter though would have to be Bernard Hopkins. He's classy in his own ****** style sort of way, noble, articulate(for a fighter)..respects women.. Never gets in trouble out of the ring, and when he's in the ring, his intelligent fighting style reflects how he carries himself out of the ring, with intelligence. the man thinks before he speaks and always owns whoever talks **** to him in front of a camera, and he's the same way in the ring.
Fighters I hate...
ebo elder..the 'god put me here to whoop ass' thing gets on my nerves in a huge way.
andrew golata..makes me glad im not polish, being that the only polish heavyweight that was ever worth a **** is a cheater, and not all there upstairs either. someone who throws 3-4 punch lowblow combos right on the nutsack like he did on bowe deserve to let the other fighter lowblow you back, repeatedly, while you are being held down..
pbf is a love/hate thing, he's brilliant and has much style but cares more about getting easy ppv fights (but i respect him for fighting baldomir, which still plays into his style though...Spinks would likely give pbf more trouble than baldomir will, who can only win the fight if Floyd comes in out of condition, or ill-conditioned. That's the only way floyd loses, if he runs out of gas, which has never happened!) and beats on his women out of the ring, what the ****, then flexes up to the press conferences suited up like he's don corleone, whatever guy we know you're good inside the ring but anyone who strikes women like you do lacks class, and no amount of expensive clothes, bling, or whips can change that
JL Castillo also a love/hate. I love his inside game and tough as nails style and durability. Love it. But I hate how he cheated the world out of seeing him fight Corrales a third time. Hated that!! Great inside fighter though. Could have been a HOF'er had he made more intelligent career decisions, like not fighting Mayweather
