    Pavlik: alcolholic who gives the shittiest excuses when losing.
    Clottey: gives up every big fight.
    Shane: watch his first fight against Forrest. This shouldnt need to be explained which is a good indicator your just some idiot.
    Cotto: I understand catching **** for this one because people think Cotto has heart and is a warrior. I beg to differ. Heart is what you do in preparation not getting your ass beat in the ring while running away. Been hreen his whole career and has folded under the real bright lights. If its not a vacant title he more than likely is going to lose.

    Depends what you mean by mentally weak.

    In terms of lacking bottle, then Andre Dirrell must come out top. All the talent, but no balls

    To throw your ignorance in your face and hope that you'll recognize it when it bites you on your ****ing nose. Never happen, I know, but I keep hoping. I'm an optimist.

    when things didnt go Tysons way hed get rattled..BUt IMO he had alot of heart and didnt fold easily,,,Outside of his last 2 fights,he took alot of punishment before folding in his losses, was also nailed quite a few times by big puchers in fights he won and pulled it out. So i wouldnt include him here.

    All tme ill go with Golota that dude takes the cake, Juan Roldna tanked it too a few times when things didnt go his way.

    Recently though ill go with Zab and CIntron.

    Hopkins, Froch, Mayweather and Rios = all would be great if they were not so mentally weak inside the squared circle.

    Nobody posting ITT has the right to call a PRO Boxer mentally weak.

    Stupid thing to say. A guy who can carry on fighting with a dislocated shoulder, let alone knock his opponent out, is tough as nails.

    Yes, but as he got older he lost ambition and heart.

    For example, look how he bailed from his fight with Chisora. He just threw himself to the floor.
