    Never thought of any boxer as a coward tbh. There's many that I thought were ducking, shot, past-prime, over-rated, hype-jobs, etc, but not one I would call a coward. The profession they choose pretty much counters any argument that they are in any way cowardly.

    Haye. Years of his blatant cowardice has created that automatic response in me.

    Of course, if he does actually fight on July 2 then he mitigates some of that. Floyd is doing everything he can to win the crown from Haye.

    Yup, but if you could read the opening post, that is not my point.

    Well, it isn't necessarily accurate, but he is the FIRST NAME THAT POPS IN MY HEAD when the word COWARD is mentioned.

    As much as Haye should get flack on his questionable HW resume, he is still fighting and will be fighting the best guy in his division in July assuming no one pulls out. Mayweather, is not and does not even have a fight signed. I actually have to give Haye much more credit than Floyd this year if Haye fights Wlad regardless if he loses or wins.

    so dont be a coward and call em out individually. its easy to lump em together so you dont have to actally defend your position. let them know how much more you know about courage than they do.

    I read the whole thread, but I genuinely do not associate the word 'coward' with any boxer at all. I hold plenty of negative views about a lot of fighters, but I've never for one moment thought of any of them as cowards or lily-livered in any way.

    Anyways, my list:

    1 ATG: Ali
    2 Slick: Malignagi (don't ask why, 1st name that popped in my head).
    3 Overrated: Khan
    4 Underrated: Froch
    5 Exposed: Lacy
    6 HW: Tyson
    7 Glass chin: Wlad
    8 Popular: Pacman
    9 KO puncher: Valero
    10 Coward: Dirrell (had to think about it for a long while but his running v Froch and spazzing out v Abraham is the closest I could get).

    You CLEARLY DIDN'T read it. It says there that you were only given 2 seconds to respond. Just like in the game where they show you some images on the card, and you have to say a word that instantly pops in your head.

    LOL okay. I won't argue. But surely our brain has a lot to tell within those 2 seconds time frame. :hey

    I like how armchair ***gots who don't even have the heart themselves to fight a pro fighter call someone a "Drug Cheat". (If you are not one of them, then it's good for you)

    Which is worse? Accusing someone of being a COWARD, or accusing someone of being a DRUG CHEAT?
