    Mate I tried and couldn’t either, he suprises me every time how manages to be even more pathetic. But what ever he does in boxing will never be able to erase the footage of him basically sucker punching some non fighter at a amusement park, he was dressed like a twat as well or make me forget the look on his face when he got sat down by Garcia, his expression was not that of a champion, it was a few seconds where he forgot his act.
    There’s no other fighter with the profile he has that is less appealing for me to watch fight.
    He’s an embarrassment to the sport and like you said cringe of the highest order.

    What Robbery? Teofimo lost that fight.

    Kamboses fought the best fight of his life, Teofimo underestimated his opponent.

    Yep he is over the top cringe and just a pathetic unlikeable person. Agree he is so phony everything he does in the build up to a fight is an act. He is not a street guy I doubt he has ever been in a street fight that display at the amusement park was pathetic and told us a lot about him. Yeah he had that terrified expression against Garcia he also had it against Loma in some stages of their fight.

    Norman is hilarious. Devin is such a goddamn loser it's sad as hell. Everything about him is calculated and still comes off corny and lame. Brian Norman, and now everyone following boxing except Haney's family, is over Haney's shitty little Floyd act.

    I think Haney has a lot more miles on the clock, and he is mentally fragile for the elite level, as you say. That Ramirez performance still showed the scars of the Garcia fight. I think Haney's prime was when he was beating Kambosos. Personally, I think he's on the slide, I think Norman is the real deal, and I think he could draw a line under Haney at the elite level for good. Looking forward to it either way, it's a great matchup.

    I feel pretty whenever I want to see Haney lose. Unlikeable twat.

    The worst part about this - is that Haney might be right…

    ….I really, really, REALLY dont like Haney, and especially his Dad… but the kid has shown himself to be world class, and a willingness to take on tough fights (this is another example.)

    We dont REALLY know about Norman.. I kinda like how he carries himself, and hope he wins… but it really could just look like the Prograis fight.

    Norman seems huge and can definitely punch though, so Haney has to be on point. Honestly, it’s an interesting bout.

    Norman thoroughly dominated Haney from pillar to post in this face-off though. I gotta say, I'm becoming a really big fan of Brian Norman, I like the way he carries himself inside and outside of the ring. He's got a lot of charisma and comes off as being genuinely funny.

    I thought Norman was an absolute scumbag after the way he mocked Santillan after knocking him out. It was really classless and totally unwarranted. But he's come across a lot more likeable since then and he's actually a funny guy

    Haney I do dislike though. I dislike him a lot and his fans who for some inexplicable reason are not only fans of his but they are heavily invested in him, like really heavily and I'm at a complete loss why that is because there's nothing to like in or out of the ring.

    They think he's some generational talent and is doing great things but he's literally never fought anyone even close to his size and after trying to unnerve his opponents at weigh ins by getting in their faces repeatedly telling them they're ''too small'' he did the exact same thing to Rougarou at the weigh in for their fight even though it was his debut at 140 Rougarou is a career 140 pounder

    And even worse, he did the exact same thing to career 147 Norman when they bumped into each other attending a fight or some boxing related event. That time it ended in a brawl :facepalm:

    Clown should have an L to an old past prime way smaller blown up 126 Loma and he got his ass whopped by Ryan and I don't believe the ostrich made a blind bit of difference. Hopefully Norman Sasaki's his ass
