This trope is often the launching pad for Villainous Breakdown, attempted "The Reason You Suck" Speech, and, in some extreme cases, One-Winged Angel. That being said, the character engaging in Unsportsmanlike Gloating is often also the Sore Loser, ungracious in both victory and defeat. The winner's reaction is a good way of telling who the sympathetic character is supposed to be in this exchange.

Of course, if Bob's opponent Carol engages in Unsportsmanlike Gloating, she's basically giving Bob free license to react however he likes. Many Dirty Cowards may also be this, as them losing usually means death in lethal situations. Storming off in a huff is also an alternative. In a fighting series, Bob will usually lose his calm behavior, resort to cheap tricks in order to win, adopt a more ruthless and brutal strategy, or unleash a Dangerous Forbidden Technique just to have a chance. If given some sort of a prize, they're likely to refuse it. Depending on the setting, he could do things like Flipping the Table, throw away the cards he was using, angrily swipe all the remaining pieces from the chessboard, and so on. Unlike his graceful counterpart, Bob will get very snippy and bad-tempered, insult his opponent, accuse him of cheating, rant about his "superior skills" and, in some extreme cases, even try to physically assault his rival or kill him (Although sometimes they end up humiliated even further). The Sore Loser is a character who takes defeat very ungraciously, no matter what kind of defeat it was. Alice, for example, will admit defeat and might even compliment the one who bested them.
