I'd be proud if Floyd was British.

There seems to be an overwhelming support for Pac in this whole fiasco.

Lets get it straight .. Im not a big PBF fan (im not from the US) i hate his ****yness and the way he cheated out fans by rejecting $8million dollars to fight the relentless margarito. The way he retired in late 2007 when unbeaten welterweights Miguel Cotto and Paul Williams were coming up.

But he is an american born and bred and yet he gets so much hate from all of use(american) ? Should use not be pro-mayweather in a sense that hes fighting and representing your country, instead of some filipino on the other side of the world?

Floyd is love by the Floyd fans. I will lean to like Floyd if he fights top WW or even MW boxers. Not LW or even JWW to fight him at WW.

americans, unlike other nationalities, dont automatically root for a guy just because he's american

Floyd doesn't care about his fans.

That's why he gets **** on. Not that it should matter to him.

He likes being hated. People are just happy to oblige.

plain and simple floyd is an arrogant **** and most people want to see someone shut his mouth. most have a dislike for floyds annoying personality and it clouds their judgement for him as a fighter also his skills allow him to fight in a manner that doesnt please most fight fans

There you go. That's the answer there. Also, America sees color more than it does nationality. More so than most countries.
