Anyone Else Root for Fighters Based on the Potential Future Matchups?

[Thread Stealer]

I'm only a big fan of a small number of fighters, and only really dislike a small number too.

I am often indifferent, and just root for a certain fighter to win because it'll help set up a future match.

For instance, I really don't care either way about Rocky Juarez and JM Marquez. But since I want to see Pacquiao-Marquez II, so I hope Marquez wins it.

I was the same way about Castillo-Hatton. I normally would be indifferent, but I knew a Hatton win could set up a Mayweather fight, so I rooted for Hatton and was glad he won.

Yup. Its why I hope Cotto beats Mosley and PBF beats Hatton. So they can see each other in the ring.

Oscar ain't fighting in London.

If not Vegas, then L.A.
