    Juan Manuel Marquez. He considers all of his losses "robberies", with the exception of Mayweather.

    Duran, on occasion, could be a sore winner, too.

    All these guys make me appreciate Floyd Patterson even the more...he was man enough...and sportsman enough not to ***** and bellyache about a loss,....even if it were disputed, like vs Ellis and Quarry.

    On occasion?? Hell he was a sore loser, and a master excuse maker all the damned time.

    As an aside, I've never been too fond of Carl Froch (or his loud mouthed wife for that matter)...I think he was, and probably still is, an insufferable. self important *******. I wish he had fought Calzaghe...he would have gotten an attitude adjustment, for sure.

    Froch liked being a big fish in a small pond.

    Anyone remember Roy Jones claiming he lost the 3rd Tarver fight on purpose to get back at his Dad ???

    Naz couldn't handle losing very well. He only fought one more fight after Barrera but that loss sucked the life out of him. In addition, I'd say that ODLH was a bad loser. Just couldn't accept them.

    People who have met him in person, sometimes come away with a different impression.

    I am told that he can be fan friendly and down to earth.
