Boxer has done so much for e-sports, so it doesn't matter if he is currently doing well or not, he will always be a legend and an inspiration, so don't understand what this reporter was thinking. TT

When weathering the storm, you bring two umbrellas. One, to stop yourself from catching a cold, silly. And another, for Boxer, so that he will have enough umbrellas to last himself a lifetime. Boxer fighting!

Code S, code A, code B, my heart will always be with Boxer. He is the messiah of starcraft and still a better player than 80% of the ppl who call themselves "pros" around the world.

Trolls can troll all they want, any SC fan should respect Boxer.

I was amazed by BoxeR's crazy strategies the first time I saw him play and that's what made me pick up starcraft.

EMPEROR FIGHTING!

lol@random dumbass reporter outta nowhere bashing BoxeR. And I can't believe SlayerS was so vulnerable to it. They should know that reporter is a bad troll and deserves no attention at all.

BoxeR will eventually get back into code A. His results aren't a true reflection of his skill.

I'm behind Boxer all the way. Legend in the eSport, and amazing person. When you're a big personality in the game, at some point people are going to start taking shots. I hope Boxer takes the time he needs to be healthy again, and comes back full strength.

It's difficult for any competitor to not "play through the pain" and take time off to get healthy. It's not usually in their mentality.

Regardless, Boxer is my copilot.

Story time then.
I'm 22 now, back then when I was 13-14 I used to go to the local PCBang (internet was a luxury back then). Now there we played a LOT of Starcraft but we were so bad at it. Once, the owner of the PCBang held a huuuge tournament, where all of the country's best players gathered. For the first time of my life, I saw people play a game seriously, with around 150 apm, which was amazing to see. Now when the current WCG champion stomped everyone (previously he went to Korea to the WCG) he began to share this experience about the WCG. He got owned pretty easily in the tournament, but he said, he saw the champion. The champion was non other than Boxer himself. I was astonished to hear that there are even more beastly players than this guy who just owned everyone here. Boxer immediately gained my respect, even though I knew NOTHING of him. How he looks, how he plays, nothing. But I knew, this man is something else.

...I bought SC2 because I heard Boxer would be leaving SC1 to play SC2. He was the one thing that made me decide to get into SC2 much sooner than if he didn't switched...it was just a few days after hearing he switched to SC2 that I went to the store to pick up my SC2 copy.

Boxer will always symbolize something more than just a StarCraft player and gaming, he did so much for the eSports scene. The man deserves respect for what he's done and I really hope he will keep on trying hard for all the fans that do still respect him. Boxer hwaiting!
