    Plenty. A lot of fighters that realize how ridiculous it all is just break out.

    Peter McNeeley started smiling and I think laughing when Tyson was staring him down.

    Tyson didn't often get into the pre-fight staredown, but that was a pretty memorable one.

    Everyone owes it to themselves to to go on Youtube and look up Emmanuel Augustus' weighin staredown with "Gato" Figueroa......pricelessly funny. I'll just post it below to save you all the trouble.

    That is just funny as ****. Before I started watching boxing regularly my friend used to tell me how badass Augustus' was; he was right. I love watching his fights. Probably one of the most deceiving record in Pro boxing history.

    :lol: Augustus is such a legend. That clip reflects his fighting style too. I dont think this guy ever takes anything seriously.

    I can't believe how many of you kids don't realize that boxers don't hate each other, and are just trying to make money and sell their fights.

    You're like offended when they aren't conning you into buying the fight with phony **** talk.

    The guy was always a bit daft, never knew what to expect with him.

    Barrera Morales loved each other then did they?

    It's always better to see a serious bit of genuine hate. We know most of it is for the lens but it does happen sometimes.
