    What? You hatin' *****? ****, we make it hard not to.

    I don't actually get it though. Y'all bitching because Europeans outside of HW don't have the status to play **** games?

    This whole premise is flipped on its head at HW. Fury's been a *****, Joshua's been a *****, Wlad was a *****, the only Euro to get into position and not act like a diva is Usyk. He's cool, I'd love to claim him and y'all should be proud of that *****, but Fury, Joshua, hell even bitches who haven't been champion, be a bit lippy and ******ed about money. Just like Wilder and Ruiz man.

    So, all you really highlighted for me is the fact that Europe really only own HWs. Fair dues, that's true. Most the guys who can be selective and hold up fights are American, that is true. Damn true.

      Don't know the significance of this social media thing, but many of them have made themselves irrelevant, regardless of this media thing. How can you choose this profession when people rarely see you in the ring? You might as well retire. There's the Charlo twins, Thurman, Spence, Crawford, Wilder, Ennis, Martin, Wahid, Bulldog Cruz, etc.

        Didn't see why you had to make it just American. Obviously there's plenty of fighters from other countries who are social media divas. Tyson Fury is by far the worst IMO. We just trying to be bigoted here then?

          My point is that America considers itself the home of boxing and their fans always claim people have to go there to "prove themselves" (I've even seen that said of Inoue!). They should get their own house in order and get their guys fighting frequently.

          And yes, Fury is the worst. I took a break from boxing last year because I was tired of his fat bald head yapping with no fights happening.

            Romero makes the list. More yapping on twitter with no actual fight arranged. Over eight months out of the ring and talking like he's not on the hook for a Barroso rematch. Hopefully the WBA strip him.

              Bumped for DClefthook and Bronx2245. I know they agree with my take on this subject.

                PBC fans have nothing much to rally about these days. Most of their idols are dormant. Wilder, Spence, Ennis, we can include Crawford, Tank, Martin, Jermell, Jermall, Adames, Lara, etc.

                  As much as this US dominated forum likes to deride fighters as "Eurobums" and anyone from outside the US really, it seems most of their fighters are inactive social media addicts who spend more time talking about "muh A side", "muh split" than doing any actual fighting.

                  The following list of American social media addicts can be counted on to derail many fights in 2024, with "muh A side", "muh split" as the likely excuse:
                  • Terence Crawford.
                  • Errol Spence.
                  • Both Charlo twins.
                  • Teofimo Lopez.
                  • Ryan Garcia.
                  • Gervonta Davis.
                  • Shakur Stevenson.
                  • Jaron Ennis.
                  Anyone I missed?
                  Shakur said Loma beat Haney. He called for them to fight. Loma ducked to instead fight Kambosos.

                  Add his name to the list if you want the post to ha e any credibility.

                    Loma isn't American.

                      • Andy Ruiz.
                      • Rolando Romero.
                      Anyone I missed?
                      Take Errol off there. He actually fights legitimately. Even took less money to coax Crawford into fighting when Crawford was dead set on fighting cans into retirement.

                      Ther rest. Fair.

                      Gervonta at least has been putting pen to paper when he speaks lately. Unlike Shakur and Co.
