While I try to steer clear of the rampant idolisation of Boxer, I agree in that he is perhaps one of the most inspirational figures in eSports.
His recent performance has been disappointing. There is no doubt in this regard. However, true fans are those who never give up on their hero. Given the extraordinary circumstances he has faced on a daily basis, he should be commended for at least remaining competitive.
I wish Lim Yo-Hwan all the best. For him, I hope he chooses to do what makes him happy, whatever that may be. It's important, however, that people not become enraged or misguided by a silly, sensationalist news article which means nothing in the grand scheme of things. He's already secured his position as the Emperor of Starcraft, and nothing - not even the media - can change this now.

Anyone who doubts Boxer's return to the top, needs to learn his history.
This would be glorious.
Boxer FIGHTING!

On another note its also quite touching how much support/defense she is giving him. thats quite a few tweets!
Well, it seems that they were all made that the same time, so I would think it's meant as a single message which simply got butchered due to the limitations of Twitter.

Gaming journalists wouldn't have a job if it weren't for Boxer. Haters gonna hate.

Im a grown man, 28 years old, teacher, father, gamer. I never heard about Boxer, before i started playing SC2. But alas i did start and play SC2, and got familiar with the Boxer legend. Since then i have been a fan of him, and he has inspired me alot. No matter the results i always find mayself yelling, Boxer fighting!
|
why hate boxer? everyone knows that it is ridic hard for people at his age. he is tryin to just set the example since he is a huge role model in the gaming community. haters gona hate/ be jelly

The Emperor! You are truly a god of Starcraft, and hard work is all that matters. Everyone knows you are still showing that, Boxer Hwaighting!
|
Boxer can make any results, i will still be so amaze by him.
He is the best for me, and he is a true human, i got respect for him for ever.
And i'm certainly not the only one who think that
|
If I was seriously ill w/ cancer and approached by the "Make a Wish" foundation, my wish would be to meet Lim Yo Hwan
Or to watch Jaedong play SC2.
|
Boxer is still and forever will be the greatest gaming legend ever.
Off topic: Twitter is so hilariously bad. Haha.
|
Long Live the Emperor!
I don't care what code spot he is in, I'll cheer for BoxeR as long as he decides to play!
SlayerS and BoxeR FIGHTING!

Boxer FWIGHTING!!!! Don't let them get to you! We still love you!!!

Boxer is owning in NASL.
He's very good. idk what that reporter is thinking. Boxer is doing great!
|
Wow, she sure went on a rant... That's more tweets in an hour than most people do in a month!
I thinks she's kind of overreacting, to be honest, regardless of what was said. The guy's a celebrity and pretty much every celebrity on earth has articles about them in gossip rags, online and in papers. It's one of the crappier parts of being famous but it is pretty much part of the job description.

Weird thing is, MMA just won MLG and came in 2nd in the GSL Super Tourney, and is now also in Code B. Fact is Code A and Code S represent some amazing players and there is no shame in losing to anyone of them.
Boxer is still really good, and he is representing that in the NASL.

boxer fighting! I'm still a huge fan and of what jessica wrote on twitter made me really sad because i enjoy every frigging game his playing! SC2 is still somewhat knew and when you have played bw for the last 10 years and knows the mechanics in and out it takes time to adapt. Boxers time will soon come, he has so many fans that loves him
|
I didn't think I'd feel quite so emotional at something like this.
Code S, Code A, Code B, it doesn't matter, The Emperor is The Emperor.
The best day of my life was the day I watched the Legendary Boxer play live for the first time. I pray it will not be the last.

BOXER FIGHTING! STAY STRONG!
