Why do Americans hate Deontay Wilder? No support for countrymen.

Right.... blacks root for blacks and it's seen as support... whites root for whites and it's seen as racist.

Again , you the one jumping to the wrong conclusions . Here's a post I made about fl0mos:

Fl0mos idolise mayweather because they live vicariously through him and they are black . What else could it be?

Is he entertaining in the ring? No

Is he a hypocrite as displayed by this thread? Yes

Does he bring the sport into disrepute? Yes

He only talks to one boxing website

If he doesn't like a question from the media , he belittles the reporter

He beats women

I don't think he's a coward though. I don't think a fighter is scared of another fighter. They fight for money.

I don't think people hate him, he's just not exciting.

Who gives a crap where someone is from? Nationalism, is weak-ass thinking for people who have no iden******, therefore need the lowest form of group think to give them an identity. These people are always losers.

I'll take a good fighter, who earned is way, an exciting fighter, over a fighter for simply being American. F that bull.

Wilder will lose to all the best HWs. He is not going to become great. Frankly, Wilder represents all that is wrong with boxing. F him.

Good answer...our national self-esteem is not gained by something as trivial as sports.

I watch these nations live and die during the world cup...and chuckle.

I have just been discussing this concept with joeandthebums on Fantasy..

The reason is simple and all encompassing.

If Wilder were to become champ next week, suddenly the HW division will be revived and Wilder will be a hero.

Until then though, Wilder, like all other Amercian HW's, no matter how good or how dangerous they are, will be for the most part, put down disgracefully, blaming THEM as the reason they have been uncompetitive in boxing.

Americans would rather dwell in the distant past in a largely fabricated fantasy world that never actually existed, rather than embrace what is right in front of them and lend their support.

In Australia here, support for your athletes is high and this kind of behaviour frowned upon.

you're clueless.......americans are used to a gold era of heavyweights. holmes, dempsey, ali, liston, fraizer, louis, **** even norton. these guys had talent, ability. drive. americans are just spoiled with talent. and they realize that wilder is trash with bird legs. it has nothing to do with hating on him......the guy has fought complete garbage. (his comp is trash how is that respectable?) he may beat stirverne but thats not really saying much. stiverne is at his heaviest and is a lot slower then oppose to a few years ago........i would say that it's you who live in a fantasy and don't wanna see or talk realty.

exactly..........wlad fans are literally pissed that americans are seeing the situation for what it is. the guy has fought pitiful comp. why are you mad if someone points that out is beyond me...........

I think he doesn't get so much hate. As for the racism topic, not sure that Americans but imo there are plenty of low key or not even low key racist on this board but Wilder isn't on their mind so many times yet cause he is unproven who beat mostly tomato cans, the black fighters who they're hating on every time are more likely the more proven, succesfull and famous boxers like May or Ward, they bother them way more. But if Wilder beat Stiveren and gets more hype afterwards he will surely get more and more hate. But again, I don't speak of Americans particularly cause the best American boxers in boxing history were black and people have no problem with it there.

So how exactly is this relevant to Deontay Wilder? Or did you just want an excuse to menstruate about Hopkins?

The latter.

[STREET CLEANER]

I don't think that it is hate. He really hasn't proven himself and it is to quick to get on his band wagon. This up coming fight should prove what he is made of if the fight has no controversy.
