    probably a case of khan just imitating pac. i have seen pac doing this habit even before he got to train with roach.


    another habit that i like is when jmm touching his shoes with his gloves while being introduced before a fight and will time his getting up with the announcement of his name.

    Mayweather has that quirky habit of being really annoying.

    Vitali's eyebrow raising and blinking

    Or is it just me that notices that?

    Malignaggi does that too, but while shaking, and it makes his hair look pretty badass :rasta

    JMMs lead hand sometimes draws a figure eight in the air.

    How has no one said about Hagler hitting himself in the head to pump himself up?

    A quirk is associated with oddity and I don't see anything weird about sending out a good wish. I'm sure most fighters do the same as Sergio; he just happens to verbalize it. Martinez's real quirk is him repeatedly blowing a snot rocket during a fight.

    They make them do that at international tournaments in the amateurs. Guess its embedded in his brain
