      Logging into my favorite boxing forum after a great fight should have been exciting and fun, but instead, I'm met with a cold frustration.

      People are arguing with one another and nobody seems to be celebrating the beauty of the sport last night.

      The Mexicans, who were rooting for the aging champion in his hometown fight, are exchanging words with the Black Americans, who supported the challenger who lost despite going all out, while both are filled with misery.

      In the face of such situations, it's only natural to feel helpless, but this just shouldn't be.

      We should be grateful and celebrate such displays of courage and skill, instead of bickering without end.

      All those watching the fight had the chance to experience something unique, and yet here we are, not enjoying the moment but using it for pointless arguments.

      Nothing would make me happier than to see people from different backgrounds and origins interacting with one another show respect and admiration, celebrating the virtues of the sport without prejudice and hatred.

      Isn't that why we all love boxing after all?

          Why are Mexican held to different standards if they don't stop some one they are "done" yet certain fighte can pitty pat all day and be considered "unbelievable".
          Because Mexican style is touted as the best. You know ---the seek and destroy. So, people come to expect a top tier Mexican to seek and destroy and when that doesn't happen it falls short of expectation.

          Just like Pacquiao is expected to throw punches in bunches and when that doesn't happen he falls short of expectation.

          Mayweather is expected to be a ring general with high defense and accurate punches, and that doesn't happen he is deemed to fall short of expectation.

          Bro, it is nothing against Mexicans, but more so against the expectations for a certain fighter or style.

            The victim mentality from your ilk never ceases to amaze me.

              You say all this dumb shit​​​​​​, while Canelo is the only active boxer fighting champion after champion and has the most wins over full champions in all avitve boxer CVs.

              ​​​​​​Let me guess you Rep. Crawford, GGG, or Tank? How does your statement hold up to their opponents and resume...

              "That's why you are all content, satisfied and enjoy him smashing up these cherrypicked, limited and overmatched Euro bum fighters with no chance of defeating him."

              That is where the standards are different... While Canelo is actually doing something and picking off champion by champion. You have dumbasses like Tank claiming they are the face of boxing after KO-ing Instagram barely a contender crap resume Ryan. And you morons accept it lol.
              Canelo's the only one who can fight whoever he wants when he wants, so he has no excuses.

              Crawford was literally locked out of an entire division of fights because he was with the wrong promoter.

              GGG was ducked by the entire middleweight division until he got old and didn't look as invincible

                  Damn since when is going up in weight and fighting bivol not a risk ?

                  shoot even at his height going up to fight Kov was no easy feat

                  Jacobs, Lara, GGG, going to another PBC to fight plant (and potentially get robbed) aren’t risks?

                  damn lol
