The Mikey Garcia of his division. These guys are just sitting around wasting their prime years.

Andrade is with the same promoter as Provodnikov I believe, it's tough for them to land big fights.

I don't dislike Ward at all especially not for beating Kessler or Froch. I always knew Ward was going to take the whole thing. Ward was one of my favorite fighters at one point, but all this inactivity and his new fans (most of these new fans are just fans of Ward to try and descredit and make GGG look bad) lost me. Don't act like it's never American fans that start stuff (not American fans, I should say GGG haters), in every GGG thread, there is always people that go on and start saying things like "GGG is ducking Ward or Lara"
Bro, it's mainly African Americans hating on these Europeans. That's why that guy earlier was bashing Mexican/Mexican Americans for supporting GGG. What does he want them to do, if the Mexican public loves to watch GGG, then they can support him if they want. It's their money at the end of the day. I don't give two ****s where the fighter is from, as long as I like their styles and I don't mind their personality outside the ring, I'm good. Whether you want to admit it or not there is way more hate towards GGG than Ward.

Obviously, I'm not saying ALL African Americans hate Europeans just like not ALL Europeans hate Americans. But at the end of the day this is only the internet so you can't take things too seriously because there will always be negative people.

People seem to get mad because guys like GGG gets mad support but guys like Andrade and Ward don't. Then they try to make it look like there is an agenda. When in reality Andrade and Ward are not doing themselves ANY favors by staying inactive. They act like the Boxing World owes them something. GGG on the other hand is staying active (fighting four times a year) and giving fans what they like. You can't blame casual fans for liking aggressive styles, they don't understand boxing like us Hardcore fans do.

We don't even know who is what on this forum everybody is faceless so I don't even know how anybody can make this conclusion that "African Americans Hate GGG" are some assuming that Mayweather fans are all Black As Well so since it is people who like Mayweather bashing GGG they must be "African American"? Another thing that is BS that people on this forum believes also is that All Mayweather Supports are Black LMFAO if that was the case Mayweather wouldn't make the money he makes if all of his Supports was "JUST BLACK".

But anyway back to GGG, what exactly is hating? Because some question his level of competition and doesn't believe he can beat Ward? The man really haven't done much in the sport to run around and say he would beat a guy that is considered the Consensus #2 P4P Fighter in the World when Active. That is not HATE that is COMMON ***ING SENSE! One guy is proven and cleaned out his division the other have yet to step in with anybody in the Top 5 of his Division (which is not his fault of course). GGG biggest win is who? Daniel Geale? Yet you want people to just Declare him "GREAT" now and put him above others that has proven themselves?

The problem on this forum, people on here IN GENERAL don't THINK before they post, they post on 100% Pride and Emotions and absolutely 0% Common Sense!

I agree on your first paragraph and I'll admit that I post sometimes without thinking and just emotions. But just check YouTube, guys like Dontaesboxingcrap is always hating on none black fighters. There is a few others as well. They let their emotions get to them just because some GGG fans are idiots and they take it out against GGG. People always **** on GGG's resume, but name me 10 current fighters who has fought more top 10 fighters in their division (or ranked by one of the organizing bodies) at the time they fought them; not named Mayweather or Pacquiao.

People do hate on GGG though, why does he have to move up? I understand that Abel Sanchez says some idiotic things sometimes but you can't take it out on GGG for it. Remember Ward and Hunter said they will win a Heavyweight belt by the time he's 32, not many bring that up. I don't hate Ward for it because sometimes when you're in the heat of the moment you tend to say things you might not fully mean.

When did I say GGG is great? If Ward has cleaned out his division then why the **** doesn't he move up. GGG still has a lot of work to do, yet people already want him to move up. Don't you think if someone cleans up their division the next step would be to move up? He doesn't have to if he doesn't want but why do people want GGG to move up when he has yet to clean up the division but not Ward.

You're generalizing and putting all GGG fans into one group. There is so called GGG fans that make us, real GGG fans, look bad. I know GGG still has a lot of work to do and I don't go around saying GGG is the greatest Middleweight of all time or everyone is ducking GGG. I just like watching the dude perform and I want to see him face some of the other guys at 160. Let the dude work is all I'm saying, let him clean up the Middleweight division. I'm against the people that want him to move up just because they think Middleweight division is really weak. When there is more fights for him to take. Plus his money fights are there, boxing is also a business so of course GGG is going to target Cotto and Canelo, who are near his weight class and are going to give him his biggest paydays.

I can tell you're a smart poster.

I'd like to see Andrade fight Stevens, Murray, Geale, Macklin, Rosado and Monroe. I bet he takes a few losses. Don't see any pot belly's in that group.

These guys you listed have a combined 27 losses, 13 losses by KO. Hardly a Murderers Row of opponents. I doubt Andrade loses to any of them. Murray is the toughest there, that's about it. Macklin, Rosado and Stevens are C level. They get beaten by good B level guys. GEale has already been beaten by other B/C opponents. I need to see more of Monroe at the top level, which will be difficult because there is no top level at 160, it's a b class weight division at best.

You are a smart guy.

BooBoo was one of my new favorites last year. Now I am like BooBoo who? He has to get active again. His career will not shine while he sits on the sidelines.
