    For me, I hate it when fighters say,

    "It is what it is"

    I think Andre Ward says that line more than anyone else in boxing today.

    "I'm the a-side"

    Because it usually involves bending or removing all kinds of boxing rules massively in their favor and/or lowballing the opposition.

    "It comes with the territory..."
    Although I've only heard Mayweather say it though...

    I hate when fighters go down and dont get up at 8 instead slowly climb to there feet so they are barely upright at 10 and then when they get waved off by the ref throw their arms up in protest like they wanted to continue when they just had enough and werent man enough to admit it

    "First of all I want to thank God, and my saviour Jesus Christ cause without him all of this is not possible."
    Yeah right, like Jesus watch boxing lol.
    Imagine Naseem Hamed after a KO win grab the mic and shout "Allahu Akbar3x" the stadium will go bananas.

    "The knockdown made the difference" First of all fights are scored on a round by round basis. It's exclusive to the round and that round only and should not be a determining factor on who won a fight.

    this fight is like a cake that needs to bake or it needs to marinate

    when 2 fighters are in their prime and poised to go you have them fight and then if its good you can have a rematch which should also deliver
