    Surely Naz had some hardcore fans at the height of his popularity?

    No?

      Not hardcore, no. Not hooligan-type.

        What qualifies as a Hard Core Hooligan type fan?

        With all those rowdy Hatton Fans filling that arena for the Tszyu fight none of them classify as hard core?

          Hatton's fan aren't malicious.

          Benn's fans carved Italian's faces up with blades and **** and threw a bottle at Galvano.

            That's hard core.

            Will there ever be that level of malicious hooligan type fans again?

            What's it going to take to bring them back?

              The last guy to have hardcore fans was Nigel Benn, his East End boys scrapped with the Italian's in Italy and got stuck into the Birmingham lot when Benn fought Giminez (McCracken fought on the undercard and his Birmingham City hooligan crew started on the East End lads).

              Hagler vs Alan Miter they threw bottles at Hagler.


              There is the last one Hatton vs Tsyzu the fans where just in it. It was in Manchester Hattons hometown and Tszyu going there with alot of boos, I felt if Tszyu won there would be choase in the areana . and boxing ring is different that football it easy for fan to come in the ring.

                Boxing is dead, sadly. I don't think it'll ever really revive, in my lifetime.

                  I can't imagine Hatton's fans doing that. Hatton would disown them.

                    I have that fight on DVD and remeber it well.

                    That was indeed some hard core hooligan-ism.

                    That's what you're referring to Juyster?
