    Yeah, Brandon, you've just gone and gave the fans an amazing show of brutality for 12 full rounds where you've had your head pounded in for the audience's satisfaction. So now be a good boy and shut your mouth in case you offend those same fans for displaying the same passion that's had them entertained and jumping for joy.

    Definitely refreshing. Rios is a character the sport could do with having.

    Pretty funny seeing two guys yelling in agreement with each other so passionately. I thought they were gonna come to blows, which wouldn't make any sense.

    An animal? :huh Both men were animals during the fight which everyone appreciated, but afterwards in the post fight interview there were no animals or anyone acting like animals.

    If I recall correctly it was Alvarado who had the platform initially to give his thoughts, p9st fight. ....it was only after thenew champion finished that the interview switched to Brandon.

    Fighters are a different breed and have a wide variety of personalities. Brandon has been disrespectful in the past and is abrasive but he is who he is and can get away with being himself because it's real or authentic.

    Brandon Rios was being himself, shame on the uptight Boxing fan who called him an animal :lol:.

    The guy has been around for years, if you don't know him by now then now you know. That "animal" comment sounds like some **** you hear from your uptight mother in law. Not an esber. Kick rocks bro, my man puts his heart and health on the line and you want this tiger to change his spots post fight? :lol:

    If you love this Sport, you can appreciate the entertainers for who they are and what they give us.

    What's that got to do with it? If someone else also gives an awesome account of themselves, what makes you think I wouldn't be tolerant of a heated post-fight interview like that?

    So does Bellew get praise for kicking off and throwing his toys out of the pram in the post fight interview too?
