    Honesty here, folks! Do you get more satisfaction and joy in a fighter you like winning or in seeing someone you dislike losing? I'm eliminating "depends" or "both" from the poll, you have to figure it out one way or another. It's a private poll so I get the most honesty out of you good people.

    Nothing will top Pacquiao getting knocked out.

    Gaining happiness because a fighter loses says more about that poster then anything. If you think that way, it's time to grow the **** up...

    When Manny got knocked out i was that made up for Marquez i didnt even worry about him for a few minutes, which im disgusted to say but i was smashed and elated.

    When Khan got emptied off prescott i was equally as happy so tough to call but the Marquez win probably tipped it for me cos i was that happy after that farcical decision in the 3rd fight

    Depends.

    I liked Mosley vs. Margarito for both reasons. :yep

    Ditto Solis vs. Lazarte, Santa Cruz vs. Morel, Stieglitz vs. Abraham, Martinez vs. Chavez Jr., Rodriguez vs. George, Boone vs. Stevenson I, Yamanaka vs. Darchinyan, Geale vs. Mundine II, etc.

    I take more joy when the fighters I dislike loses.

    I take the MOST joy when the fighter I like beat the fighter I dislike.


    My favorite fighter is Lennox Lewis, he is retired. So now I just want to see Vitali quit a 2nd time or go out on a tko.

    There aren't many fighters that I truly dislike so I would have to pick the second option. Can't remember any fight yet I've felt true satisfaction watching as Margarito/Mosley.

    I like seeing fighters lose, especially the ones who are annoying like khan. But i also like seeing fighters who have worked hard and are considered under dogs to win because it makes it more sweeter. I want trout to beat canelo so i can be happy for trout

    I am immensely satisfied by my favorite fighter winning - I love Marquez, Barrera, Morales, Pac, and Floyd, but when they fight each other I am more satisfied that one wins, though I don't want any of them to lose.

    When Pac is beating up a guy it's like I'm in there beating them down or taking shots, too. Don't feel that way very often, accelerated heart rate and stuff.
