Huck vs Potvetkin. Almost no build up......but a FOTY candidate.
![]() Yeah.....I like boxing. In the ring. A fighters personality out of it usually only makes me dislike a guy. If anyone liked the Haye vs DelBOY buildup more than the fight itself.....well, your'e a ****ing fag, go watch your soapies. |

who gives a shit what his family history is? If the guy is right, the guy is right! I said it before if K2 where exciting in or out of the ring they would be bigger than Mike Tyson . . . **** if they Vitali played up the Ivan Drago persona or Wlad did Borat . . . it would make the fights more interesting to casual fans. yeah, its nice that they do a lot of charity (but most boxers making a shit load of money tend to do that). But when they are fight no hopers like Mormeck and Ademeck (who is my fav Hw right now) . . . give people a reason to tune in. I do not get why "fans" have a problem with fights being exciting in and outside the ring. |

Fight was boring as hell and Haye was gifted the decision by Con King but the build up was a success. |

Both
i dont think the two options have to be mutually exclusive a build up can be exciting without trash talk...but, i enjoy the verbal exchanges as well a fighter can be an engaging personality while also being respectful imo |

A fight that no one watch outside of Eastern Europe or from these boards. I like Huck but i did not watch the fight live because it seemed like it was gonna be a snoozefest. Any conflict is more interesting if it is a battle between "good" and "evil". |

Action in the ring is paramount! However, a dramatic build up to a fight only adds to the sense this fight is significant and makes it seem like the action in the ring is better than it was. Drama builds up the fight . . . now whether the fighters live up to the hype its up to them. I would rather be let down by a boring fight than miss a good one because I was not interested in seeing it (see Huck-Povetkin)

Post some build-up quotes from Haye pre-Valuev and Wlad and then follow that up by posting actual fight vid.
Build up is secondary to the actual match-up and fight. The last 5 visitor(s) to this page were: Dirty Bastard Faerun fergusonj1 hamiltonporter Julien Sorel Why are you so frequently visiting my page? |

Who's disagreeing with you on this one? This is not even up for debate. I asked whether you enjoy dramatic, exciting build ups. You keep rephrasing that question to your purposes and build tons of strawmans here.
