    Recently:

    Trinidad:happy
    Pacquaio:happy

    These guys weight jumped their careers, probably NOT for the betterment of their careers, but to seek challenges. Should be commended by ALL.. Always came to fight........

    Bradley... The guy just has confidence, he (like every other fighter in the world) isn't admitting to a robbery DURING his career. He has worked his ass off to get to where he is, and he's not even conceded... And yet he gets all the hate in the world. I don't care how pissed u are about the robbery, he doesn't deserve the hate.

    What's funny is the same people that were hating on him are the same ones that are trying to hype him up for the rematch...

    Putting plaster on is just silly never mind possibility of killing his opponent.

    I am a big fan of Bradley. A nice dude that shows a lot of respect to other fighters (rare in todays age). I can guarantee he will be a humble loser also. More importantly he is a great boxer.

    +1 on that Bradley gets more than he deserves

    Amir Khan without a doubt. I like him and he's got heart. Most fighters with that much heart aren't technically gifted. But he is. All except that chin! What a real crying shame. He'd be one of the best P4P if his chin was better.

    I would say most people don't hate pacquaio...we hate his casual fans which most often leads to people putting the pacquiao hype into perspective which comes off to his die hard casual fans as hate

    I don't think people are confusing "putting the pacquiao hype into perspective" with hate. Most people don't hate him but there is quite a lot of actual hate for Pacquiao, usually from groupies of Floyd or groupies of one of Pac's victims.

    He is not that technically skilled and he would not be a p4p fighter if he had a great chin.

    His technical flaws are a mile long, he gets overrated due to being fast. His balance, accuracy, defense, footwork, are all unimpressive for a world class fighter.

    He does have balls, which got him through the Maidana fight (unlike Ortiz).

    Every fighter with a name gets too much flack by some.

    Except maybe for Margarito.
