    I just want to say that I do not hate on Mexican boxers, or any non Puetorican boxers. Since I have been acussed of this in the past!

    These are the boxers that I have made some emotional investment in.( It was actually hurt when they lost)

    1. Tito Trinidad - that hopkins fight made me sad for weeks
    3. Erik Morales - I hate Paquiao because of their last two fights
    4. Diego Corrales - You are not a boxing fan If you didn't love Chico
    5. Fernando Vargas - I became a huge fan after the Tito fight
    6. Mike Tyson - I just hate the way the media prayed on him.
    7. Shane Mosely - I felt bad for my against Forrest and Winky

    Every one of these guys you said I agree with. I almost cried when Tarver KO Jones, but seeing J0ones at the after party and speaking to him was cool. It made me mad when I seen Don King and Tarver in the Mandlay Bay rntrance and Don King was preceaching and rewarded Tarver 100,000 in straight cash

    Only Jones Jr.

    I don't actually care about anyone else. I like watching many fighters though...

    When Jermain lost to Pavlik I was mad and sad for about couple of days.

    When Adamek lost to Dawson I was devastated for more than a week.

    Seems like we have similar tastes.

    1. Trinidad- the fighter that got me obsessed with boxing
    2. Morales- the biggest balls in the sport
    3. Tyson- the perfect blend of power and speed...most interesting character
    4. Miranda- his story, his love of pr, concussive power, will fight anybody,...you gotta love him.
    5. Calderon- cant help but love the skills
    6. Cotto- The next PR legend..its been a pleasure watching him develop...i damn near had a heart attack when he was wobbed by corley

    I hated watching Hatton lose to Mayweather. I was desperate for him to win but i was betting against him anyway because it was never going to happen. i won good money that night so in a way i was happy.
