    I don't like fighters who like talking **** for no reason, and if they get pulled into the **** talking then I expect them to back it up in the ring.

    Neither. I want classy tough guys. Because boxing is after all a gentleman's sport, but you have to loose some of the gentle-ness to establish alpha - male dominance.

    My fav fighter prior to his retirement. He put Whitaker in his place, and yet he was one of the nicest, classiest, most gentlemen like fighters in the division.

    Put it this way, in terms of out of the ring behavior, do you admire guys like Klitchko and Pacquaio or Floyd and Chisora?

    I guess i'd prefer them to act like Pac or Wlad/Vitali but It wont make me not watch them if they act like an *******! For example.. I can't stand how Rios acts but he's fun to watch.. He's a bad ass fighter with a seek and destroy style! He's must see TV @ it's finest.

    What I can't stand is the figher who talks a good fight and gives it G but then on fightnight does the complete opposite.

    If your gonna talk **** before the fight then back it up in the ring is what I'm saying!

    Chrisora, zab judah, and Mayweather seem more acters than gangsters. A pre-chad dawson Hopkins was my ideal fighter in and out of the ring.
    intelligent gangster, not a stupid one like money tries to be and how chrisora apparently is.
    Paul Williams tries to keep it gangster without being stupid.
    Margorito's attitude of playing the villain was fantastic, though the circumstances were unfortunate.
    A gangster, don't **** with me mentality while maintaining sportsmanship is my type of fighter.
