How does NSB impact your rooting interests?

[ShaneMosleySr]

Here’s my list of rooting interests I believe have been completely influenced by posters and threads on NSB...

I want Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder to get knocked out frequently from now on, while Luis Ortiz eventually becomes undisputed heavyweight champion. This stems from all the annoying Wilder-Joshua fighting and also Ortiz being caught up in it and put down as an old man and a soft opponent.

I want Dillian Whyte to get knocked cold so I don’t have to hear about how the WBC is screwing him anymore.

I want Andy Ruiz to get brutally knocked out by a no-hoper. The Ruiz is great and no one knew it until now discussion is obnoxious.

I want Mairis Briedis and Michael Hunter to rematch Oleksander Usyk at heavyweight and beat him. No one ever seems to question Usyk and it bothers me considering the other guys who get questioned.

I want Billy Joe Saunders to do something big at 168. He’s a big talent and I don’t get why people speak poorly of him here.

I want GGG to rematch with Canelo and brutally knock him out. I then want him to move to 168 and become unified champion there. That should stop the threads about his resume.

I want a welterweight who doesn’t hold a title currently to become undisputed. I’m sick of The Who’s ducking who debate on here with the four champions.

I want Vasiliy Lomachenko to continue to win impressively until he retires. I can’t believe he catches flack for his resume lol.

I want Tank Davis to have a super fight and win it impressively. He’s a big talent and I think it’s crazy that people complain he’s protected when he’s the age he is.

I want Gary Russell to fight six big names in two years, going 6-0. That should end the he’s inactive and doesn’t fight anyone talk.

I want Rigodeaux to move up two weight classes and win a title. By knockout. Then I don’t have to hear about how he’s a bum or an old man, or how he was way too small for Lomachenko anymore.

I want Naoye Inoue to continue moving up and stopping people because the talk that he shouldn’t be considered in a p4p list is absurd.

I want Chocolatito to come back and win big again so his run can be given proper credit here.

I want Wanheng Menyothin to finish his career undefeated, while also unifying and becoming a multi division champion. He doesn’t get enough credit on here.

What are some of your rooting interests that have been impacted by your fellow posters???

Nothing. Nothing that happens on these boards influences who i like, who i dislike and who i like to see do well or badly. I see people say they want Joshua to lose cuz the Joshua fans on here are irritating. Thats a bit sad really. Ive never wished bad on a Boxer because of his fans.

Cant believe u made excuses for Tank Davis. Dude is too good to be taking the type of fights he be taking. He not a prospect nomore

[The Big Dunn]

Nothing on this board influences which fighters I root for. I do root for the American fighter in a big nationalistic match up like Wilder/AJ even though I am not necessarily a wilder fan. I definitely over celebrated when Ruiz beat AJ.

I do like to troll and piss on certain groups of fans when they get delusional or act ridiculous.

NSB makes me lose faith in humanity.

I watch boxing for the sport. I personally dont care who wins. Yeah I have my favorite fighters but all I care is to see a good fight. They win they win. They lose they lose. That's how it works.

But all these pathetic people living vicariously through their favorite boxers and acting like they actually care for them is pathetic.

I am neither swayed one way or the other by NSB when it comes to my rooting interests in the sport of Boxing.

I would say certain outcomes would make for a hilarious Sunday and Monday on NSB. So I would laugh if a certain fighter lost, only to poke fun at the fan base. But I wouldn't necessarily root for or against. Every boxer has his fans/trolls. Canelo/Mayweather/GGG/Wilder/Joshua. They all have their brigade. So what?

It's all fun and games anyway so overall no, it doesn't influence me.

I love to troll fan bases here, but the truth is most all of us would get along in person and relish the opportunity to talk boxing with someone seeing as it's such a niche sport. It's incredibly rare to find boxing fans these days.

So my final point is to not let boxingscene's trolls influence who you root for.

I root for the guy I place money on.

This is so much the truth. Every time I meet a fellow boxing fan IRL the common interest is the overiding factor regardless of their opinions on who won which fight or who their favourite fighters are. I think the differences become magnified on NSB for some reason..maybe it's just cos dudes like to squabble about ish online, cos all other male dominated forums seem to show the same patterns.
