Golovkin is not British either, but has a huge following within boxing in the UK.
Similarly I'm a fan of Keith Thurman's, and I'm not mixed or American.
You don't always have to root for the guy that looks most like you.

Why rooting for GGG is being racist?
Maybe somebody will prefer GGG to Floyd because he prefers his demeanor and fight game?
And again, feeling pride and rooting for someone are two completely different things. Stop twisting my words.

Originally posted by KingHippoOr maybe they're just racist and could never root for a black person no matter how good they are? Why is it so hard for you to believe that there are racist GGG fans?
Let's talk about what we know, so this board...
Most GGG fans out there aren't pro white fans, I can only think about Freedom and 2 others idiots I can't remember the name, they might be his alts tough.
Most GGG fans are usually fans of others boxer punchers like Thurman, Pacman, Joshua or Gamboa, no matter their "race".
Floyd's race baiters fans are a lot more on this board, from the Larrys of the world to the Kigalis of my @ss. And they root ONLY for other black fighters, even if they aren't slick or confirmed as elite (see Spence).
Floyd hardcore fans on this board are whole different animals, + let's not forget Floyd's has been doing "racial rants" and playing the race cards towards asians/whites and is clearly part of what Fisher called "the demographic" mentality.
Floyd, like his hardcore racial puppets thinks he can get a pass doing some public racist sht like "cook me some rice jokes".
How Floyd would react if I asked him to "cut me a nice piece of watermelon"?
Bad and he would be right to do so.
GGG never has been somehow "pro white" in his talk or demeanor.
So he and his people shouldn't be labeled so easely as a"pro white" entity.
They aren't been some video of a cat explaining his murders with a GGG team cap on his head.
Floyd is a biggot, and so are most of his hardcore followers.

Originally posted by bigdramashow View Posttheres nothing wrong with cheering on your nations fighters, but its wrong when people will only cheer on fighters from their own race. Theres a segment of this site that does just that.
Most people are tribal but just don't want to admit it. Unfair to paint one demographic as more biased than the other.

Originally posted by KingHippo View PostI never said it was wrong. As a matter of fact that was my point all along. African americans shouldn't be shamed for rooting for their fighters.

Most GGG fans will make gratuitious accusations about substance abuse, but will never make the same accusations towards eastern europeans.
Most GGG fans DO NOT like Anthony Joshua and will shamelessly accuse him of ped abuse and being a hype job even though he's more accomplished than GGG was at the same stage of their careers.
Most GGG fans will like any and every eastern european fighter and will shamelessly hype them up while calling other proven black fighters hype jobs. Black fighters absolutely have to be proven to earn their respect.
And I completely dissagree with the number of race trolls. There are accounts on this forum that were created solely to make black posters look bad. No other fanbase has this type of dedication but GGG's.
Golovtards are one of the worst breeds of race baiting victims to hit boxing in a long time. And if you can't realize how cancerous his fanbase is, then you're the biased one.
I never called GGG a pro white entity. But he has no control over his fanbase.
As for Floyd being a racist, we all know the guy is an idiot. Nothing to do with boxing though.

Black fighters have to be proven.
Like who, Wilder and Spence??????
They are hyped and never beat a live body.
There have been tons of black hype jobs.
Remember Kirland? Allan Green? Cloud? Chaz Witherspoon? Mike Grant?
Same for white fighters, a white fighter will be called a hype job and a white hope until he's proven.
Me biased? Tune into a Ward thread and a GGG thread and see who has more haters/race baiters.
