Biased Klitschko and Pacquiao fans make me cringe when they talk about Vitali and Manny (two humble fighters that I actually enjoy watching). They clearly have the most ridiculous fans.

All-time? Tyson fans no doubt.

LOL. And what is ta purpose of tis thread may I ask?

Sorry fo "schoolin" you on ta otha thread. LOL! Jest choose yer werds betta next time cuz jest an addition of one werd can make a whole paragraph turn into one whole gigantic crap! LOL.


Side note: fo those who dont know. tis guy said Morales beats Pac 50/50 times base on their "styles" totally forgettin ta fact that Pac lost by a close 115/113 and have as big chance to beat Morales in ta rematch! He can say that on Tito vs Winky, but he can't say that on Pac vs Morales. Idiot!

Dont get me wrong. Hatton and Calzone have their ridiculous fanbases.

I was praying Hopkins would beat Taylor....just so these fruits who keep popping up out of nowhere would be quiet. Instead....he was robbed....and they shut their eyes and I even heard some say Hopkins only won 2 or 3 rounds.....I feel like they should die.

Not to mention Jim Lampley:

"Jermaine Taylor is the biggest, best, fastest, strongest, middleweight I have ever seen"

Larry Merchant:

"Sleek as a bullet"

That is so damn annoying.

Man I want him to fight Epifiano Mendoza and get knocked the **** out. I would pay double on PPV to watch that ****.

Kingsley IkeKe dodged Mendoza in his last fight.....pulling out at the last minute on Boxeo De Oro.

I pray for that fight.

A lot of fans will defend their chosen fighter on the internet but if your talking about fans attending fights then I have to say the Hatton fans in Manchester are crazy, they'd pay £150 to watch Hatton fight my granny, really though in the past when the opponent was below par or unheard of he still got around 10/15,000 to every fight, oh and Joe Calzaghe doesn't have a fan base outside of Wales I don't think, he's never been very popular, the only sell outs he's had was when Hatton was on the bill :D

He's viewed as a hero, national pride. Most his fans may not know much of boxing, but they love him fo makin it big time and reppin his country!

Can't ever hate a guy for that or disapprove of his true fanbase.He is an inspiration to millions there unlike here where we have so many athletes to choose from and most are dropped by half of their fans after one loss or bad game or season or whatever you know what I mean Fairweather fans not real love for the guy.

Gatti should get credit for all the success he had given that he is only a "c" class fighter according to some of you.

Additionally, usually the people who are annoyed heavily by fans of another fighter have an imbedded bias to make them do that anyway.

EX: Klitschkos are hated a lot for being white, which is obvious but no one addresses it (not that there aren't other reasons they are hated on).

Tito is hated on by some for not speaking English, which is unfair.

PPL hate on Hatton and Calzaghe for fighting in England all the time and because their fans are pompous, always insulting the U.S.

I can't understand though why any1 would hate Lacy. He's just a class act all the way.

I've had people argue with me that Calzaghe should be a shoe in as a mid ranked P4P fighter.

And I've heard the most outlandish **** coming from Tyson fans, such as he would KO a dinosaur.............and yea they were being dead serious.

I'm suprized you had to ask.

In terms of the amount of hype vs actual deserved recognition, the Klitschkos are BY FAR the most over hyped fighters on this site.

The core of their fan base is out right deluded.

For a guy who's biggest career wins are Larry Donald and Corrie Sanders and his brother who's been beaten by 3 very average fighters, these guys get acclaim like they're Hall of Famers, which they are FAR FROM at this point.

RwK

Absolutely. Well put.


and his brother who's been beaten by 3 very average fighters, .

Looks unimpressive yes. Keep in mind though......

Lennox lost by knockout to 2 average fighters. He avenged both losses by decisive stoppage. Giving Wlad the benefit of the doubt I believe he would avenge them. He was definitely not proactive in getting rematches yes.

We will have to see what he has left on saturday. I am confident he will get past peter, but you have a point in his legacy is tarnished unless he beats Brewster and Sanders.

However convoluted the division is.....I think he is a threat.

I might go overboard sometimes because I am a fan of his.

Vitali on the other hand is a bandwagon fighter IMO.

But he hasn't avenged his losses, and hasn't redeemed himself... yet.

I think he's got potential and I honestly have nothing agaisnt him or his brother, but in regards to the question posed in the title of this thread,

Wlad AND Vitali fans (the fanatical ones) take the cake.

These guys are nowhere near deserving of the massive amount of stubborn and deluded hype surrounding them.

People tend to go overboard with the hype. Definitely.

Most want to make them out to be the "person to beat" in the division. That is unnaceptable.

I personally am fine with Wladimir assuming the role as gatekeeper in the division. If he gets past Peter, I think he should fight Brock. That would make 3 undefeated prospects in a row.....because I am very confident he would make short work of Calvin.

Many unanswered questions regarding this situation.

Vitali fans annoy me to say the least. Not as much as Taylor fans.....but enough.

I like Pac but he's got the most ridiculous fan base. They really love him and that's all well and good so In my opinion no other fan base comes close to their level of fanaticism. I hear he's a movie star at home and that may have something to do with it.

He's an entertaining fighter, no doubt. Tons of heart so I won't take anything away from him as this thread is about fans rather than boxers. I selected his fans only because some of the threads posted on this site demonstrate a strong inability by fans to listen to the slightest criticism.

2nd place would be the recent Taylor fans. Seems like many are just hating Hopkins far more than they are supporting Taylor.

3rd place would go to Iron Mike fans. Still fantasizing about a come back and capturing a belt one day. Gimme a break already. He's cooked, stick a fork in him.

Peace to all.

Mike Tyson fans who have been brainwashed into believing he was the next great heavyweight. I can name 8 fighters in 5 seconds who would make him wish he was never born.

Manny Pacquiao fans. The guy has great speed and power, however that's it. People who believe that he could actually box with Floyd Mayweather absolutely mystifies me.

Fans in general who believe that "their" fighter can't be beat and refuse to listen to any logic whatsoever.

Manny_P and miketysonjr are perfect examples of what I just listed.

No contest, it's the tyson nuthuggers. tyson was past his prime when he lost to a bum in Buster Douglas, but 15 years later he is going to clean out the division. Can you say delusional? Berbick, Spinks, Thomas and Smith were better competition than Frazier, Foreman, Norton and Liston. Marciano was too small to even get in the ring with mikey but the same person in the form of Holyfield beat mikey from pillar to post. Frazier has a worse chin than mikey because he got up 6 times against Big George Foreman but mikey has an iron chin for getting KTFO against douglas, Holy, Lewis, Williams and McBride. I guess getting up from a knockdown and going on is worse than not getting up at all. The list of absurdities is endless.
