    I met Duran a few months before he fought Hagler. Nice guy.

    Naz is right up on the list for me. Everything about the guy set my teeth on edge. He had unbelievable talent, was a fellow Yorkshire man like myself but I cheered from the rooftop when he lost. I wanted Kevin Kelly to knock that stupid cocky look right off his face lol. In recent interviews he does seem to have matured I'll give him that, but back in the day I tuned in to see him beat. Got there in the end!

    You mean you were eating his burgers and left them unattended.

    He's put a preemptive claim on every burger made until he's full.

    Prince Naseem-Couldn't stand the man, hated the way he would sometimes humiliate some of his lesser opponents in the ring.
    I always back the Brits but I wasn't exactly gutted when Barrera schooled him.

    Tyson, when he was active. Bowe. In today's scenen it would be Fury, PBF, Broner and Wilder.

    He and his fans are still making excuses for the MAB loss.

    I really didn't take to Naz at all, either.

    Fortunately, his public appearances seem to be very rare, these days, although when he does show up on TV, I find the guy almost as nauseating as when he was in his pomp. There is some comic relief, mind; in that he looks like a heavyweight, today - lol

    Lol, they are. At the end of the day he was so far up his own ass he thought he was untouchable. He did a kind of documentary style thing following him around before the mab fight. What a dick he looked in it. Was so glad he got his butt kicked Clint.

    2 guys that are on here alot that i like are Monzon and Duran. For some reason they get a pass from me about there personalities. Dont know why they just do.
    Guess it may be the same reason Ali gets a pass from so many people. I personally despised the man.
    Paz Hamed and Broner i really hate.

    Same here.

    Except, I give them a pass in the full knowledge they were a-holes, because their a-holiness was an intrinsic part of their Champion's attitude; not, as in the case of quite a few of the other idiots, a superficial bad-boy veneer.
