    I voted a day or two, but not in a manner that it effects me personally (although watching one of em not fighting their fight does tend to get me hollering at the TV:lol:).

    I usually just wonder what it was that got them to get off their game. ie Wlad vs Sanders, Bute vs Froch.
    But when my boy fights his game and is starched ie Khan, or robbed, ie Pac.....I mean, it is what it is. A robbery can't be avoided, and getting KTFO is inevitable if he on his plan and gets caught slipping.

    Watching Khan get laid down vs Garcia.....I mean, it was always in the back of my head. Watching the scores read when Pac was robbed.....I could see it coming.

    But Bute trying to be Carls homeboy, then looking in Frochs eyes, and seeing his bad intentions.....I was literally yelling at Bute to ****ing fight his fight, and not Frochs. That was an epic fail.:-:)-:)-(

    I watched that like 4 times wondering if I might see it differently. What a knuckle****.:rofl:rofl:rofl

    I tend to have one or two favorite current ones that I am always emotionally invested in, it can put me in a bad or sad mood for a few days.

    Barrera getting destroyed by Pac made me feel like crap for a good week.

    Mosley getting headbutted and beaten by forest depressed me as I was boxing at the time and it was disheartening.

    Pac Bradley decision just pissed me off for about a good week, but since Pac won easily based on MY scoring criteria (EASILY) it didn't really bother me too much, though I argued with everybody about the outcome. Pac-Marquez upset me more because I didn't expect him to deserve to lose, somewhat sad for about a week because of what it signified.

    Not the end of the world though. But I do revere my heroes quite a bit - when my favorite fighter is fighting, I get nervous like I'm in there or my best friend is in there, especially if they start taking clean shots. (zero anxiety in Pac-Bradley, which should tell you something)

    If Hatton was still around then the OP would have got some tears flowing.

    My favoraite fighter is Peter Buckley, and when he loses i go into complete meltdown for weeks, i don't speak to anyone, can't face the outside world, just tuck up under my duvet eating myself to obesity on ben and jerrys cookie dough ice-cream whilst watching the Rocky saga over and over and over again, let it be said i'm not a very social being

    Oh, I should say that I get emotionally involved when fighters fail drug tests.

    I was raging at Peterson and Berto for a few nights as we missed out on two great rematches that promised to be fight of the year material. I was rooting for Peterson and Berto as well.

    Sometimes, I'll be honest. When Peterson got busted, I was pissed for 2 days.

    And if Money ever loses, I'd probably go into a coma.
