"a real boxing fan"
Collapse
-
anyone who calls pac a roided up catchweight fraud is not a real fan.
anyone who calls floyd an overrated p*ssy is not a real fan either.
a real boxing fan is someone who watches the sport and respects the athletes who partake in it.
it's okay to not like a fighter and criticize them.
but to use names like p*ssy and **** to describe a man who fights for a living is the real p*ssy. and having a boxingscene account just to nuthug one fighter and bash one other fighter is not a fan. just a groupie living in the closet.
there are exceptions and some guys really are b1tches, like malignaggi and dirrell.
cintron too, even though i'm a big cintron fan and he would beat me to a pulp. but i think i could take dirrell and paulie. bwahahahaha!!!
but 99.99% of fighters don't deserve to be called names like that. it's not right.

how do you think that clown got to know about the threats at 135, 140 and the potential matchups at 147? if you ask that fool to talk about JWW withOUT talking about Khan, you would think that *gasp* he was a boxing fan...its ok to get into the sport because of one fighter...i'd bet that 95% of all hardcore fans BECAME fans because of a single boxer and then expanded their interest to other boxers

Do you get what I'm saying?
depends...if you can sit there and genuinely enjoy watching LeHype play basketball, i would say that you were a basketball fan....would i consider you a die-hard fan, no...but i can't deny someone who looks forward to watching a basketball game, for whatever reason, as being a fan of the sport
there are different levels of fanhood dude...a guy that knows the passing ratings of every QB in the league is on the same boat as the Green Bay Packer fan who lives and breathes Packer football...just because he doesn't give a crap about Mike Vick's TD-to-INT ratio doesn't make him an 'unreal' fan

everyone has their favorites. but there are certain posters here whose sole purpose is to bash or nuthug a certain fighter.

Is it attending live events?
Ordering PPVs?
Studying the intricacies and details of the sport?
Preferring a specific style?
Watchings 10 fights a day?
Enjoying tactical bouts over slugfests?
Knowing the dialogue to Rocky by heart?
What exactly makes one a real boxing fan?
Larryx: Im a real boxing fan because im a expert in boxing styles
Larryx: Why you *******s mentioning Floyd hes in vacation

the only ones whose fanhood i would question are those that hate without having facts and those that can't give credit when its due...people see me and know i dont like Floyd but i can't sit there and flat out lie and tell you the guy sucks...
take that dumb**** Footwork777...he rambled on about PAC avoiding sooOOoooOOo many slick African American fighters and when i asked him to name them all, he came up with one...i ended up having to HELP that ****sucker compose a list of slick AA boxers
or MIC, that assclown talked about 'pure boxers' ruling the p4p rankings like it was a fact but then sat there and listed Tyson as one of those 'pure boxers'...fool didnt even know who Ivan Calderon was when he was brought up...asked him about Finito, nope...nothing either
they 'might' be fans but too much pretending clouds that judgement...that just makes them posers

well from my experience i grew up watching de la hoya fights and trinidad..but never really followed the sport. in 2006 i saw joan guzman make his first defense of his belt in the dominican republic of a crowd of 20 + k and i felt inspired.. at first i came to this site looking for more info about guzman but while i was at it i started reading about other fighters and got on youtube and i really got into them.. around that time mayweather de la hoya was talked about obviously i went for de la hoya not really understanding the sport yet or knew who mayweather was.. after 2006 i say i became a real boxing fan. especially after getting hbo etc

I began watching Trinidad causally because my brother was an amateur boxign and that was his favorite fighter
Then i went to websites to look up boxing and slowly fell in love with it

i'm a huge fan of floyd and pac for different reasons.
you may not like floyd, but even you know he doesn't suck. nothing wrong with not liking certain fighters, but we as fans have to give credit where it's due.
that's why it bugs me when other people crap all over pacquiao and say that he sucks, considering all he's accomplished.
i'm really curious to see who will still be posting on this site after pac and floyd retire.
