Hopkins - Thought he was a ******* in the Tito bulid up with what he did with the flag and everything but seeing him nearly beat Calzaghe then school Pavlik at his age made me a fan
I try not to hate fighters because some of them are just doing what they have to to get the W...that said I despised Cory Stinks. He just did everything possible to annoy me as a fan. That said after his fight with Lattimore, I've sort of turned around on him. Him bringing the fight to Lattimore was pretty good.
For me its the opposite. I used to love watching Khan progress in the early stage of his career but then he got to arrogent and cocky. Sayin that since the Prescott defeat he hasnt been as bad.
TAYLOR - before the pavlik fight. I thought he was just arrogant and was over hyped due to his performance against spinks n ouma FROCH - Always trying to climb on JC dick. I thought he was just all talk and C level fighter if that. But after his amazing fight with pascal I gave him credit WITTER - Same as FROCH trying to blow job hatton all the time. but after he KO'd harris I became a fan
I've gone full circle with Khan , was a fan when he first appeared was annoyed when he got away with it vs Limmond , was pissed when he got to beat up on the shell of one of my all time heroes but now he has signed to fight a ( ok limited ) champ from the division above his , well I'm back on the band wagon again. the only fighter I really cant stand is Judah , classless little ****er !
Naseem Hamed: Cocky little dickhead. But his fights were always a spectacle, and interesting to watch. Erik Morales: I thought he was a dick for spraying water on MAB's dad, and I thought MAB won their first fight. But now, I like him better than I like MAB. Ricardo Mayorga: Hated him the first time I saw him talk. Quickly liked him afterwards.
i used to not like him but was impressed after fighting very good opponents back-to back-to back even in their own backyards after being ko'ed himself.
Prince Naseem...arrogant and blew a great legacy by letting it all implode..I look back now and see a golden age Antonio Tarver...those 2 wins over Roy Jones Jnr won my respect and having watched the 1st fight live I believe he was robbed...should retire Jermain Taylor...Outboxed Froch and won my respect. .................................................................................................................... Amir Khan...still undecided until the chin is tested and is in danger of being another Prince Naseem if he is not careful.Should get rid of his entourage
JMM - I never cared for him. Thought he was boring. Everyone talked about how great he was, how avoided he was, then he finally got his shot against Norwood and did jack. But starting with the Terdsak fight, he has either started slowing down and is more hittable, or he is making an effort to be more offensive. Either way, his fights are now entertaining. Going the other way Oscar - Used to like him a lot. But, he turned into a marketing hoar starting with the Rafael Ruelas fight. I increasingly grew into a hater.
