    Why do Fans Get Upset When Fighters are Willing to Fight Their Favorite Fighter?

    Dominic Wade is being criticized for being confident going into this fight.

    Andre Ward is criticized for wanting to fight GGG

    Erislandy Lara gets criticized for wanting to fight GGG


    So by that you would think fighters that don't want to fight GGG should be praised, right? But no...Sauners, Jacobs, Quillin, Martinez, Cotto and Canelo are scared duckers.

    So as a fan....what do you want and why are you *****ing?

    Because after Pac, Donaire, Matthysse, and Pac again all lost their biggest fights over the past few years it has that bandwagon shook. They're scared for Golovkin to fight anyone people think poses a stylistic difficulty to him because all their other champions the last few years failed them.

        Call me crazy, but I think some people would rather hold onto the belief that their favorite fighter is a super villian that strikes fear into everyone and would rather continue to believe in Santa Claus rather than fights actually get made.

              It's only GGG fans. I don't remember Pac fans getting upset when other fighters would call Pac out or say they'd beat him. They got mad after he was beat but they were hyped for the fight and wanted Pac to take tough challenges. GGG fans will say he shouldn't fight Lara because it'll be easy work and people will complain he beat a smaller man. If it's easy work you should want the fight. You don't see people complaining he beat Rosado, a smaller man. GGG would get more credit for beating Lara than he gets from beating Monroe Jr and Ward. There's this weird protection force around GGG. First it was Lara should fight Mayweather. Now it's Lara should fight Jacobs. Ward should fight Kovalev. They've never seen Lara or Ward get dominated in a fight. But they've seen Jacobs and Canelo get dominated and lose. And they know Saunders isn't really good. But they're ok with the Hopkins fight after they saw how bad he looked against Kovalev.
