Why is there so much Hate for Danny Green?

[Spray_resistant]

I don't get it, why doesn't anyone like him on this forum and claims he is doing things he isn't doing? RJJ has no punch resistance anymore if he ever did, the green machine hits hard and stopped him easy, and Roy shamelessly tried to make excuses talking about bad wraps, Paul Briggs threw the fight....nothing Danny can do about that.

Green put on an excellent display of boxing against Flores and was countering him all night.

So what is not to like? Regardless of all the hate he gets Danny Green is a good fighter and a top CW even though he is really a LHW fighting at a higher weight class.

To be a legend you have to beat a legend.

and that is what its all about...... You know before I signed up on the forum I used to think Roy was one of the best ever. The more I look into things I find out it is less and less the case, but in regards to the Green hate its mostly butthurt Roy fans.

Listen, Danny Green showed his boxing skill, no denying that, but something is suspect. He had a brown liquid drink, water, and gatorade(powerade,something red). You cant tell me thats legal......its not hate bruh. Listen, Roy is may favorite fighter, and he is def a top 15 all time great. He accomplished something that one other guy has done, and the other guy was Bob Fitzsimmons in 1897. So, that speaks for itself. Roy has fought 20 world champions and had over 30 championship fights. He is very much a legend. Also, Danny handwraps are not wrapped correctly. I am not saying they are illegal, but the tape is not proper and the gauze sits five inches above his knuckles. But Roy had punch resistance, he got checked by Ruiz, at 226, hes been whacked before. He has none now it seems. But his chin if fine. Its the side of his head that has become soft it seems. But, Danny Green willnever be considered on Roys level, and Green has questions to answer too.

you make a lot of joke threads don't you ?

here is why Danny Green is hated

- he is fighting no-hopers, small guys, washed up fighters

- he is handpicking guys who have no business left in a boxing ring
like Briggs and Jones

- he acted like beating Roy was a great achievement at this point of his career

- he has defended against Manny Siaca, former WBA super middleweight champion (his last fight prior to the Green fight was at the middleweight limit)

- he is forcing his opponents to fight him around 185 lbs when in fact he has a cruiserweight bullcrap title and should be fighting at the division's limit

- he doesn't want to face the best in his own division and is deceiving his fans

- he has tried to drain Flores by offering more money for each pound less on his cruiserweight frame


you say it's not his fault that Briggs took a dive, but what can you really expect of a man who has been out of the ring for 3 and a half years ? why pick someone like that in the first place ? TO HAVE AN EASY NIGHT WHILE GIVING THE IMPRESSION TO THE ONES WHO DON'T KNOW **** ABOUT THE SPORT THAT HE IS FIGHTING QUALITY OPPONENTS. This was another great cherrypick by Green, and it blew right in his face, good for him, shame on him

to sum it up, Green deserves all the hate he has been getting, but the Flores fight was a much better fight, a huge step up ( he didn't really have a choice after screwing his fans last time around), and if he can continue to fight real live cruiserweights at the division limit, the hate will disappear and he will start making fans around the world, simple as that

Danny Green is the man, that dude is a real fighter.


They probably hate him cuz' he's white and cuz' he made Jones his ho'.

booo hooo...

[Bastian Loc]

lol, he just beat Flores? That's awesome, Flores was so painfully gay and overrated.... Just another reason to love Danny Green.

Inject, it has nothing to do with race you jackass. Only a man with no credible reasoning or comments says something like that. Im white, so that just goes out the window. We all know Roy would have easily beaten a limited Danny Green at his best. Matter of fact, I guarantee you he would have never taken the fight. Anyways, Flores is overrated, Danny Green is as well, what has he done of any worth i this game. Not a damn thing. Please make sure you make sense before you post something..till then

You must not post here often. There is a wide swath of posters who hate white fighters.

Regarding Jones in his prime, we'll never know, Danny Green used to hold his own with a prime James Toney in the gym so to write him off because you believe in the Roy Jones myth reveals your bias.

Roy Jones has a glass chin, anyone could've tapped it and knocked him out.
