Whats to hate? hmmmmmmmm, let me think............

      There you go you have your answer, no one here hates GGG. Some only hate the exaggeration of his accomplishments made by some of his fans.

        Nobody hates the dude. It's like the Pact@rd phenomena; any real fan of the sport likes the fighter, but the fans of said fighter may tend to be a bit overenthusiastic or have some weird, sitting-in-the-basement-too-much agenda.

            Absolutely.

            Though I will say that teh cult of pretty boy, imo, seems to enjoy a higher ratio of longtime boxing fans to recent than the pact@rd armies and the ggg fans...though that is just my perception. I could be wrong.

              Blindly? the f_ck outta here with that.

              We praise him because of all the reasons the OP listed. Nothing blind about it.
              Sounds like you're just upset because fighters from the UK are garbage, so the only thing you can do is vent your frustration toward Gennady.

              Direct your criticism toward someone who deserves it, like Peter "If the price is right" Quillin or Miguel "I've earned the right to never defend my title" Cotto.

                  Yet a couple of the lesser ones are Golovkin's best wins

                    He is not hated because he is a threat to 147-154 pound fighter. That's like me fabricating that Andre Ward is hated because Ward is a threat to Middleweights and Junior Welterweights. That's nothing to really boast about, of course Ward's a threat to 154-160 fighters. Golovkin is a big threat to 147-154 pound fighters, that's true; at 173lbs on fight night, his height, power, he's a big threat. Is that some kind of feat, or a bragging right? So he has Welterweights and Junior Middleweights shook, is that his ticket to super stardom? Or is he gonna actually do something big like go up at least 8 pounds and beat some top 10 contender up there?

                      A fan and a ****rider are two different species on here. There are some GGG fans/supporters and then there are ****riders. Every fighter has fans and ****riders, there are no exceptions.
