15 I DISLIKE MOST

In no particular order

1-Victor Ortiz: huge waste of talent. A quitter and apparently a sex offender. I really enjoyed his fights at his peak, damn shame.

2-Alexander Povetkin: overrated drug cheat who people move heaven and Earth to defend for some reason.

3-Adrian Broner: was and always will be a clown. Was actually a decent fighter when he let his hands go. There's being a jackass, and then there's this guy. He wants to be a street dude so bad but he isn't built that way and his obsession with Mayweather is bordering on psychotic like a bitter crazy stalker.

4-Corbett: thin resume with a weird style that would be extremely ineffective today or even a couple years after he retired. Vastly overrated by classic fans.

5-Danny Garcia: no idea how he managed to suck off so many judges because he certainly doesn't have the money to pay them off. Has the nerve to call himself "swift" but has cement shoes. A good chin but lacking power and finesse is such an annoying combination in a fighter.

6-Ike Ibeabuchi: i don't hate him, just incredibly overrated for a guy with 2 decent wins and no belts with less than 30 pro fights. He's also apparently a danger to society for his mental health issues.

7-Tony Tubbs: incredibly lazy fighter. Showed up out of shape on purpose to the Tyson fight.

8-Robert Guerrero: an idiot. Fights like a damn caveman in the 21st century. Used to be a decent fighter yet constantly chooses this ugly swing for the fences style but lacks the power to make it effective. So glad he's gone.

9-Amir Khan: sold his soul for money. Nobody on the planet wanted to see him get his ass whooped by Canelo and move up 2 weight classes when he saw those zero's Oscar offered he signed faster than a pregnant woman grabbing cookies at a grocery store. He is delusional and thinks he's some huge attraction but doesn't realize people just want an easy KO win. Should have fought Kell Brook ages ago if he really wanted the money and legacy but he's scared of losing to his "rival". He'd also incredibly insecure and accused his wife of cheating with Anthony Joshua with zero evidence and embarrassed himself.

10-Julio Cesar Chavez Jr: incredibly spoiled brat who wasted the fans' time with his half assed efforts. How he manages to get promoters to agree to sign him for fights is beyond my comprehension.

11-Antonio Margarito: one of the most egregious cheaters of all time. No need to really expound upon this.

12-David Haye: a clown. Came up with an incredibly absurd excuse for his loss to Wladmir Klitschko. Was scared to fight a 50 year old Shannon Briggs.

13: Canelo: a complete diva and hypocrite. Criticized Floyd and Cotto for their "diva" tactics and then he turns around and plagues the boxing world with the exact same methods. I enjoy some of his fights but my God is he good at cherry picking and milking the Mexican fan base. Very clever at tricking people into fighting the best available opponents. I'm actually one of the few who gives him credit for the 2nd Golovkin fight since he took the bait and stood in front of him yet Golovkin wouldn't slug it out. Overall boring personality who uses weasel tactics and weight bullying which makes it hard to tell how good he is.

14-Joseph Parker: one of the most boring fighters I've seen inside and out the ring, which has got to be a record. Dillian Whyte was right when he saw right through him and said he wasn't a true warrior. Guy belongs in an office, not an arena.

15-sugar ray Robinson: i admire his skills, but seeing his son tear up while recounting how his dad would beat his mom left a sour taste in my mouth. Was apparently a jerk to some fans and he even managed to rub Ali the wrong way when he asked for an autograph.

 

Ray Leonard needs to be higher on your list ... good day to ya RPM

 

Adrian Broner is the only fighter whose personality I can’t stand ...there are a lot of fighters I find boring

 

Why Shakur Stevenson?

 

Why exactly do you dislike Terry Norris?

 

Vinny Pazienza is a guy I love to watch get his ass kicked ..,,I love his fight with Roger Mayweather

 

I really dislike wilder and gatti, they both make boxing seem like a clown show

 

I dont like overly cocky fighters who blow there horn too much. Never have.

 

Not to mention the out of ring violence, blatant disregard for others and I think I remember reading a story involving him doing something (can't remember what, it was a mugging/assault) to an old guy.

 

Schooled by Jones prime for prime, vastly overrated.
Possibly the most overrated fighter in recent history, and a racist ***** to boot.
Had good longeveity, best you can say about him.
What's to like?

 

He is one of the best technical fighter's of the last 20 years. It's fine if you don't like him but to say he is overrated is a little much. They guy was always in shape and completely shut out multiple high end fighters like Trinidad, Tarver, Pavlik, Johnson, Joppy, Holmes, Pascal, Cloud etc. I get his attitude rubbing folks the wrong way but I always admired how he turned his life around and grinded his way to a championship through the Blue Horizon, and on the road in other guys home towns. He was a guy that would win ugly if he had too and certainly bent the rules to get an upper hand if need be.

Bottom line, he is a street guy like Lamotta, Graziano, Qawi, Saad etc. That turned his life around. He didn't have a big promoter in his corner like Osacr, Floyd, Leonard. He had to grind it out against the hardest fighters out there and along the way he became a brilliant technician far superior to most that came up with a big amauter background.

 

Trinidad was not a middleweight, pavlik was a tough but limited guy on more or less a Barkley level.
He really didn't beat anyone prime for prime to justify his top ten middleweight inclusion which seems pretty much a given on here.
I regularly see him rated above Jones which even considering Jones' relatively short stay at MW is just laughable.
I'll say it again he had good longevity, that is it.

 

Tito had just beat Joppy for a middleweight belt. He was certainly at his best as a WW but he was a dangerous guy at 160. Regarding Pavlik, I agree he was somewhat limited but he had really solid wins over Taylor and Miranda and was clearly the top 160 pounder at that time. The guy fought the best available guys at 160 and didn't duck anyone. I agree it was not the strongest era at 160. If he fought at MW back in the 60's against Giardello, Tiger, Fullmer, Benton, Archer etc he would certainly have lost to at least one of those guys.

I guess we just agree to disagree which is fine. He wasn't the most exciting guy to watch. I will at least acknowledge that.
