Sportsmanship and easygoing methods are all right, but it is the prospect of a hot fight that brings out the crowds.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Sometimes I think sportsmanship is a little bit forgotten in place of the individual attention.
I think sportsmanship is knowing that it is a game, that we are only as a good as our opponents, and whether you win or lose, to always give 100 percent.
That's what you live for as a sportsman. You have to put up a fight.
One man practicing sportsmanship is far better than a hundred teaching it.
In boxing, it's one fight, so it's easier to build up rivalries, but everyone's got huge respect for each other.
You have to make sure you have the right people around you to get the right fights, and you're not guaranteed to get the best fights.
The best fights don't occur between strangers. They occur between friends who trust each other.
Players very widely disagree with me about what's hard and what's easy. and in a way, 'I won, but it was a fight' is the best compliment a game can receive.
Good spectator sports share certain fundamentals. Their competitors battle head-to-head. Their winners are determined objectively: fastest runner, most points. They are refereed, not judged.
There is no such thing as sportsmanship.
