View Full Version : Do you think fighters will always think about their losses?

i wonder if someone like BHOP thinks about his loss he took to RJJ
or does foreman to this day, think about his loss to ALI and wish he could have done things differently?
i wonder how much it bothers them
i would have thought hopkins would have been incensed everytime he sees Roys face. no matter that roy has been kod recently and hopkins is on top of his game, roy still bested him in the only encounter they had. but bhop doesnt seem bothered, because he isnt chasing a rematch.
im not only talking about bhop and rjj

I'm sure it does to some extent. BHOP and Jones seem to be very arrogant men and I would imagine that a loss to them is majorly annoying. Whereas someone like Gatti just shrugs it off as a bad day at the office.

The ones who actually give a damn do. They probably hate to lose in the video game.

I think Hagler has Ray's face on a dart board at home, and goes to the gun range and has the sheets specially made, with Ray Leonard's body.

Nah I don't think so . . . not unless if the thing becomes personnal.
Boxers always think of the incoming fights and what would it do to improve their stature and how much money they will earn. :D :lol:

I reckon the fighters who lost fights that they could have won if they did just that bit more work....
Like Oscar and Floyd.... if Oscar had pushed himself that much harder those last few rounds it could have been his... i reckon Oscar would be thinkin u could have been mine if i hadn't forgotten about my jab.

You obviously havent boxed before nor played any competitive sports..
losing can feel like death to a person of competitive nature..
I know how i felt lastyear when we lost our rugby final on the buzzer..
Still have nightmares..:fire :yikes
