Why tom stalker ? Lovely lad

I would guess the hype surrounding him, does wind people up if they think a fighter's being overhyped.

Boner and Naz, I got some funny looks the night MAB schooled him as I was jumping up and down!

Same for me.

James Toney, Naz, Michael Grant and Golota getting smashed off Lennox - Grant was talking in the lead up to that fight as if he had already won it and it was a matter of him just turning up and he got absolutely tumped! Golota - the hype train got derailed that time too - Steve Holdsworth 'not only will I think Golota will beat Lewis but will seriously hospitalise him' and Lou Duva 'Golota is a natural sportsman and he could be a footballer bla bla bla - Lewis could only play Chess' and what happened - Golota got tumped big time.

Anthony small. Need I say more!!

Khan, Broner, Mundine, Taylor, Winky, Klitschko, Naz, Martinez, Margarito.

Let's be honest. The accent grates a bit too.

Margarito getting smashed up by Mosley was very satisfying for a few reasons but namely;

1. He was proven to be a horrible, despicable cheat and could have seriously injured someone with his wraps. No-one knows for sure but in my opinion he did use hardened wraps in previous bouts.
2. Mosley was the fighter that got me interested in boxing and was a huge underdog in that fight.
3. Making fun of someone with Parkinsons disease is pretty low.

Froch, Haye, and Broner among others.

Froch always a pleasure.

Macklin. Might seem a bit harsh, but I remember him being very dismissive of Barker and Murray at one point - whilst claiming to be world class and top dog in the UK.

I also didn't appreciate him milking his Irish heritage (though it's understandable - as it's a way to tap into more revenue and interest for his fights). Also, the slightly ambiguous links to the criminal underworld he has, regardless of whether or not he actively courts relationships with gangsters - have put me off him.

Klitschko & Klitschko, Khan, Herbie Hide, Cleverly, Akinwande (McCall), Rahman (Lewis) . . . . basically any time a paper champion who steers the stiffer opposition comes unstuck, or when a protected, average boxer with delusions of grandeur finally meets reality - can take a long time in the current climate.

Fighters I look forward to seeing lose this year are Tyson Fury and Floyd Mayweather.

Riddick Bowe - I was glad when Holyfield won the title back off Bowe.

Bowe annoyed me when he first won the title, & I was sick of all the hype about him, with some claiming he'd rule over the HW division for years.

Danny Williams v Harrison was another one

George Groves

Oh yeah, him, seeing him sprawled out never gets old, he is such an annoying tit.

Froch

Achieved alot, but has become a serious irritant over the last couple of years. Has a face now that you just hope someone will connect hard with.

I laughed my arse off when khan got mullered in the first round by breidis prescott not so much because of him or his personality but purely because i had to pay 15 quid to watch a novice.

I thought the fact it was sbo was a disgrace and was so hoping it blew up in warrens/skys face and i was not dissapointed.

In more recent times tony bellew,i will never tire or stop hoping that that whinging loud mouth gets absolutely flattened no matter who it is he's fighting.

Bellew every day of the week. Something tells me we will have a few more defeats to look forward to once he gets in with someone decent.

When Wlad ran into Sanders, that was funny to watch. It was almost like 'Hey hold on a minute, I like to warm up a little'.

I'm not sure I was glad to see him beaten as that's harsh but it was a funny moment or 2 nonetheless.

I loved seeing Mayorga getting beat up from De La Hoya

Leonard, after he celebrated as Dave Green lay unconscious in a Maryland ring. Someone called Duran was seven weeks away.
