Neither do I. It comes off as low class and makes the person look like they haven't been raised right.

Unimpressed and sometimes bored. There is so much repetition.

It is pathetic. Just compare Usyk to Shakur Stevenson. Usyk is undisputed HW king and treats oponents with decent respect. Stevenson is 130 lbs small boy who is all about "he is a b/tch, p//ssy, i am best in the world" and similar trash. Honestly, idiotic talks is something that turning me off from boxing.

Never got into it really. Had some fights. Even at the weigh in, I never talked smack.
I always figured , hell we are gonna fight anyway, I’m gonna try and knock you out, what’s the point? Whether the other guy is friendly, complete clown , didn’t matter, I’m still gonna try and bust him up.

I usually don't tend to like Trash talkers. I understand why guys do it for the sake of promotion, and all that, but I'm usually gonna be rooting for guys that don't have that type of demeanor.

Depends on the trash talking I guess.

If it is witty and funny then I am all for it.
If it's the standard bullshit that a lot of fighters repeat then I don't really care.

Few and far between though, the witty boxers.

In fact, racking my brains i'm struggling.

Ricky Hatton was funny. So was george groves. They both got talked down by obnoxious wankers though. Mayweather and degale.

I used to hate degale. He had the charm of a mass grave.

I think it's no class, lack of professionalism.
