If you always root for your countrymen, how can you claim you're a fan of the sport?

i hate mother****ers like the TS who think their definition of a boxing 'fan' is the and all be all

like YOU are any kind of authority on fanhood you d1ckriding *****...fan of the sport my ass...you will be gone the moment Floyd disappears for good

I don't see what is wrong with rooting for your country man, or someone from a similar background that you relate too. I don't get how a Mexican, rooting for mexicans first aren't fans or black people rooting for fellow blacks makes them less of a fan.

I don't understand why one person feels the need to pass judgement and point out what is required to be a 'fan'.

I am Puerto Rican and I'll always root for Puerto Rican fighters (unless they're named Cintron) because its rewarding seeing folks come up and accomplish something. I am also from Pennsylvania, so I always root for fighters from PA. Its like telling me that being a fan of the Philadelphia Eagles because I'm from here, makes me less of a football fan because I only root for the team(s) from which I was raised.

Now, the affluent types are reading my post and wondering...this poster SHOULD be a fan of Kermit Cintron

He's Puerto Rican -- check
He's from Pennsylvania -- double check

But no...his mere presence defies all logic and his annoyance allows me to break those rules

what??? so fighters who aren't pr that become champions aren't accomplishing something? stop it dude. just come out and say it. it's apparent with some "proud" fans that there's some weird sorta' snobby elitism that they feel about fighters from their country. in other words, someone like you probably think pr is the best place in the whole wide world.

Puerto Rico is a **** hole. Its very poor and alot of people are suffering down there. It is clearly a case of the entire middle class being wiped out. You either have it, or you don't.

I am Puerto Rican and I am proud of the perseverance and hard work of the people from the island, and I am a fan of this sport, so when a boxer comes up, I root for them. Not because I have a self interest in their success, but because I can relate to them and we share a commonality. I am fans of many fighters, some black, some mexicans, a few euros, some cubans and so forth. I love em all, but I get doubly interested when a young or veteran Puerto Rican enters the box. I don't see how that makes me less of a fan, as if you're a scholarly authoritarian on the subject.

I have no elitism bias, and I'm pretty sure 90% of the boxing fan public feels the same. I don't think any ethnicity is genetically superior to one another.

Anyways dude, you are clearly some immature punk who speaks in generalizations and like Maka said, you'd most likely be gone when Floyd leaves for good, making you a "fan" pretty suspect. Let it sink, I'm sure it'll hit you
