    I mean, more than once. Of course, this is a traditional feminine colour but more and more men have added this color to their everyday wardrobes from ties and especially dress shirts. A sign of open minded times, I suppose. But the ultimate macho sport that is boxing has yet to truly see the breakthrough on a consistent level. Not surprising! So do you know of any brave souls who consistently show up in Flamingo duds for a fight, at least more than once?

    There might be some during October for Breast Cancer awareness month.

    Excluding that, there was Mayweather-Baldomir, which was in November. And Garcia-Colin was in December.

    I remembered that one, which is why I kind of wanted to leave the one timers out of it. It was very nice for them to support breast cancer but they still followed trends. I want to know more about those brave souls who consistently bucked the trend and made themselves open to innuendo particularly the gay stereotype because of it.

    I know. I believe there were already rumors about him being gay before that. After the Chavez fight, things just got worse for that poor guy.
