    Not hate, but I have an irrational dislike of undefeated fighters. After they get beat, I like them.
    I guess it's more of a dislike for the modern protection of the 'O'. Annoys me.

    As everyone says "hate" is not really hate....hate....if that makes sense but guys who i didnt like in boxing



    Amir Khan ( pro bullshitter,money hungry, ,gaslighting fans of the sport with his 3rd person pronouncements of a amir khan mayweather /pac fight being one "the world wants to see to find out whose better)

    Andre Ward : (blaspheming weirdo)

    Lennox Lewis: (Not the nice guy he makes out.socially awkward aloof in prime...now trying to be nice but real persona slips out eg riddick bowe incident recently)

    Hamed:( no need to explain)

    This^^^^

    I don't mind it, if they fight and beat the best. But guys like Lopez, Ottke, Floyd etc; who didn't fight the best, and ducked them whilst protecting their zero, I don't like.

    He may have been privately.
    I just didn’t like the way he sometimes humiliated his opponents, especially when on the way up.

    When ur talking 2 a Tyson enthusiast, anyone u say who would beat Tyson suddenly becomes the most hated boxer in the world.

    If your answer is like your prediction of Leon spinks vs Joe Frazier then yes, better keep in silence

    I'll admit, my belief on that, though recently revised, is unorthodox to be sure. Now your being unorthodox.

    Sugar Ray Leonard
    Floyd Mayweather Jr.
    Canelo Alvarez

    While not hated in the literal sense, these three can't seem to do (or have done) anything right. Rarely see them being spoken of objectively/without bias.

    Yep. And naturally, this leads to my unparalleled respect for boxers who fight/fought decent competition frequently. It is sometimes difficult for me to judge undefeated fighters who fight twice a year as being better than those who fought very frequently.
    It may be an unfair bias of mine, but that's a conversation for another thread, the title of which doesn't comprise the word 'hate':).
