Most despised active boxer?
Most despised active boxer?
With large parts of the UK boxing community fuming about Chris Eubank Jr's latest activities (tweeting "My corner don't own towels" after GGG-Brook), I thought it was a good time to dish out some good old fashioned resentment.
Therefore:
First: Who do you view as the most universally despised active boxer out there at the moment?
Secondly: Who tops your personal s**t list?

Not sure, maybe Stevenson.
Wlad for me.

Re: Most despised active boxer?
Forgot my own suggestions:
Most despised currently: Broner. Facing tough competition from likes of Eubank Jr., Stevenson and Canelo on the rise (courtesy of De La Hoya).
My own non-favorites: Ward, Stevenson, Danny Garcia.

Re: Most despised active boxer?
I don't like Wlad or Ward
Re: Most despised active boxer?
Broner...
Broner...
I don't hate him, of course, but his behaviour is extremely disgusting.

Domestically I can't stand Scott Cardle. Internationally Adrien Broner is a pudendum. Away from the ring Angel Garcia is a total fuckin muppet. Bob Arum is sly old dog as is Tommy Gilmour.
Come to think of it I hate more people than I initially thought in the sport!

Broner seems almost universally despised

Re: Most despised active boxer?
I can not understand anyone despise Wlad. He is a genuine sportsman and gentleman. OK, his style is not so exciting, but, for me it is not a valid reason.

Re: Most despised active boxer?
Andre Ward for me
- smug
- over-privileged
- has no regard or respect for others even his dying promoter, yet claims to be the Son of God
- feeling of entitlement
- selfish, demanding high paydays while his opponents are paid little (Brand got $30,000)
- cheater, worked with PED guru Victor Conte
- dirty fighter
- prima donna
- over-protected, needed home country advantage in the Super Six for every fight
- racist against white people even though his mother abandoned him and his white father raised him.

Tyson Fury is up there, though not for me.
For me personally it's Eubank Jr, always finds a way to sink lower.

Agreed on his personality and professionalism. His style is ungodly, no sportsmen have done anything to me personally. The 'hate' is not literal.ValMar wrote:I can not understand anyone despise Wlad.

Re: Most despised active boxer?
Pacquiao, Wlad, Khan, Fury, Alvarez, Ward, and Andre Dirrell are some of the most hated boxers right now. Of course, Adrian Broner is a bona fide piece of sh*t, so he justifiably gets hated on.

Re: Most despised active boxer?
For me
I find Adrien Broner to be a Mayweather Wannabe that needs to cop a dismantlin so he can realise his level. Andre Ward I find hard to warm to and the cure for insomnia.
