    Wladimir Klitschko said in an interview he got into a street fight with a friend over a girl but that was when they were "Kids" He also wouldn't say who won lol.

    Oscar De La Hoya said he got punched by a bully and his first reaction was to cry.

    Evander Holyfield said he hadn't got in a street fight since like 8th grade, he mentioned he won some tournament and some local bully wanted to try him and he ended up knocking him out with one shot.

    Tyson Fury said he's never punched a man outside the ring.

    I don't think Naoya Inoue has tasted street smoke. Think he grew up middle class.

    What about barrera? He sure seems the type but he is an educated rich guy. You would figure he would get into less scraps than someone like Morales.

    Edit: My brother liked to fight on the streets, and he used to say to me, ''Fight that Kid'' And I would cry because I didn't want to. I didn't like to fight on the street because I was nervous and there were no rules. I was more confident in my boxing ability than my street fighting ability''

    de la hoya is full of Chet doe.
    No credibility.

    you would think, but fighters are hot blooded by nature. Instinct & reflexes take over common sense more often then not.

    Naw, it reminds me of the gimp from Pulp Fiction so I can’t take his mask serious.

    Safe to say that’s a lie

    I'm a big fan but I'd guess Calzaghe hasn't. Not gonna bust those fragile hands up for no dollar.

    If it's against men, can include Floyd. He does like to fight women outside the ring.

    If i had to pick a boxer just by looking at him id probably go with Sebastian Fundora. I mean who would want to mess with a towering inferno?

    I’m sure he has, he was bullied in school so I’m sure he had to throw hands to protect himself/make it stop more than once.

    Ah maybe, I'd forgotten about the bullying background. As a grown and successful adult I doubt he has though.

    Yeah you’re probably right, fighting as an adult is unfortunately something that’s not acceptable… :(
