    Some call it disrespectful, others entertainment.

    I m clearly favouring the 2nd part. I could watch hours of Hamed, Eubank, RJJ and Calzaghe winding up their opponents.

    Here's a fav of mine, done by Arthur Abraham in his title winning affort vs. Kingsley Ikeke:

    Maybe you have *.gifs of your own favourite tauntings and maybe you might want to post them, so we could have a good laugh altogether...

    Nah i don't like it to much. I didn't like RJJ the most, especially as it was mainly against crap opponents.

    I agree. I feel its bad sportsmanship. I dislike cocky.

    Depends what the taunt is...and who is doing the taunting.

    Calzaghe looks gay as hell when he taunts; doesn't work for him at all.

    I love how Shannon Briggs shakes his head, after he got hit.

    He paid dearly for it against Lewis, though. I love it when tauntings backfire.

    If a fighter refuses to engage, I think it would be fair. But, in the end, boxing is show business. You have to put asses in seats and get the PPV.

    I enjoyed the showboating when Ali would do the Ali shuffle or his patented Ali flurries, but i did not enjoy the taunting of Frazier or Patterson or for that most fighters I agree it does show poor sportsmanship.
