Why do some boxing fans take things so personally??

After yo boy gets KTFO... and your daddy Bob Arum jumps off the Roof of Texas Stadium

 

now you're being bias towards others because of their ethnicity

:hat

 

I have said for a while that people tend to gravitate towards the fighters of their ethnicity.


Why hide it? It doesn't mean you have to be biased in your assessment though.


Example: I was pulling for Curtis Stevens against Brinkley... But as the fight wore on, I was kinda hoping he would get his black ass KTFO, because he's garbage in the purest form. And way overconfident. :hat

 

more like your boy and your daddy considering the amount of times you talk about them.

After Clottey gets koed on march 14 maybe your boy Williams will finally fight him since he wants to go back to 147,that fight should be called "who Cares?" or "Overrated".

 

I dont know, I do know I took Trinidad's first lost very personally

 

the thing is, nobody has a perfect opinion. every opinion is biased. that's why it's called an opinion.

some may say pac is still lacks the skill in the technical dept. others say pac is the greatest.

but there's one thing we can agree of, the excitement and the fantastic feeling of watching fights that makes you drool over the tv screen, we all love the sport..

the sport is called boxing.

Please don't get me started on that motha****a....


But it's funny that some people think it's weird that I really like Margarito, Arreola, and especially Mayorga.

 

i do pull for all puertorrican fighters and when chavez was fighting i pulled for him every fight but i can see a fight and be honest in my assesment of the fight.. but a lot of people that say that they're not bias are really bias because they have their own opinions and wont listen to anybody elses opinion... but boxing is like college football people go for their team and anybody else sucks

:hat

 

Forums are cesspools where people go to **** on each other. Rarely do you see friendly debates taking place. Angry people come here to take out their frustrations on others in an attempt to overcome problems in their life. Psychological bs aside, I agree with your points. I can easily tell you Boxing or any other sport is merely a game. Yet there are obsessed fans who see it as a religion. That said, there are individuals who take their sport(s) way too seriously. That's just how it is. I'm not saying it's illegal to feel that way but damn, these folks need to get their priorities straight. I would never get into a street fight over a game. Not worth my effort.

I've refrained from watching Pacquiao's future fights at a friend's place due to the fact that I would pretty much get stoned to death for verbalizing even the slightest form of criticism. I'll forever keep my opinions though. To a degree I'm a fan of every boxer since I'm a fan of the sport of Boxing. But I don't have to worship certain boxers. If I'm not crazy about Pac then that's my right to feel that way. Talking **** about that is like hating on me for not ordering the same thing you order at a restaurant.

PS. Because I criticize Pac doesn't make me a Floyd lover. Though they have their faults both dudes are great for the sport of Boxing. But I have my favorites which don't include them.

 

It's really great to see people argue in a thread called: "Why do some boxing fans take things so personally".
Can't yall take a hint? Or a hike haha.

 

Huh? Is that a cohesive paragraph? Anybody able to put the pieces together and make something out of this? Hard to make anything out through all the broken English.:?
