A fighter who I liked a lot, Joey Archer, to me seemed like a really sore loser after losing the decision to another fighter I liked a lot, Emile Griffith in their rematch, which I watched on live tv. After the decision was announced, Griffith did his best to console an obviously disappointed Archer, but was rebuffed by the Irishman, which wasn't classy at all to me.
He had no idea that Mosley was on something. DLH became a diva immediately after the scorecards were read.
Vernon said Mosley was on roids and looked at Max like he was an idiot when Max disputed it. It was widely speculated at that time.
The fact that Mosley cheated can't be disputed. This thread is about who would be categorized as a sore loser. It was mentioned that DLH was classy in defeat. Based on DLH/Mosley II I beg to differ. DLH was upset because the judges did not score the fight in his favor, not because he suspected that Mosley was full of the sauce. Had he won I highly doubt if he would have complained.
Especially against your namesake Frankie Randall. Randall was the epitome of class and humility in the post fight interview. Chavez, not so much.
Tommy Loughran Ike Quartey DLH but for the first Mosley fight not the second. After the first, which was a clear Mosley win, he *****ed and whined comparing it to the Tito fight and asking oit loud what more he could have done to win. Whatever Oscar.
