Why so much hate for GGG?

[Pigeons]

He developed his reputation by claiming that he is willing to fight anybody from 154 to 168 while destroying bums. Once top-notch boxers called his bluff, he exposed himself as a coward by demanding catchweights. He is a diva and a coward.

When people would rather drop titles than face you, it's hard to get all of the best names on your resume. If the best fight for a guy is a guy that is two divisions bigger than he is, then you know the threat is real and people will reach at anything to see that threat extinguished.

Youre sugar coating it , the only real fight is Ward and it was 1 division not 2 and GGG declared he would fight any one in that division , he has ducked the fight with the only elite to challenge him and its not a good look .

The big names at MW are a bunch of b grade fighters so the quality of GGG resume is very weak for all the atg praise he gets , you are only as good as who you beat .

I really like GGG but the truth is he has beat nobody close to an elite fighter and ducked the only true elite within touch and time is running out he is mid 30s , other than that he has the potential to be something really special , but he is untested not because he is so good but because the opponents are not very good .

Ward is a genuine high risk fight and its obvious GGG doesnt want to engage in that and thats my only gripe with him .

Calls out Chavez Jr. and Froch at 168. Ducks Ward.

Calls out Mayweather Jr. at 154. Refuses to fight Canelo at 155.

Diva.

Golovkin is going up against 3 of the major fanbases in the Mexicans, Puerto Ricans and African-Americans.

All three stars are viewed as having avoided him, so naturally he generates resentment.

[Mr.Fantastic]

It's a certain fan base if you notice.

Two fanbases right now but it seems a third is following in the same footsteps.

Anyone that goes long periods winning all their matches easily will be hated or disliked. That goes for anyone in any sport. Floyd Mayweather, The New England Patriots, Anderson Silva, Wladimir Klitschko, Prime Kobe-era Lakers, Pacquiao, Serena Williams etc.

Theyll pick something to complain about; level of competition, fighting style, alleged cheating, whatever. Fans do not like one person/team constantly winning in a noncompetitive fashion. And that statement is backed up by hard data in sports statistics; if you win every game of the season, your franchise will make less money than you would have had you won very often but still lost enough games to keep it interesting.

Because he's the most dominant white fighter of the moment. AND some people think he's being over hyped.

Yeah, very true.

Successful bands/ musicians are much more hated than those that aren't successful.

The sure sign of a successful human is a large amount of hate being directed their way. You're not successful until you're hated.
