Well some of these "Americans" are American born but with Eastern european ethnicity or born in East europe and move to america as a child, So they would still be rooting for their "own".

Meh, it's boxing..follow who you like, it's not a big deal.
In sports like football (soccer) you don't get to pick your team. It's a team passed down to you by your family. You follow your local team, from the area you live in or was born in. Which can sometimes suck if that team is total shit.
The good thing about boxing is you can follow who you like. Anyone whos style you like, anyone who excites you.
The nationality of the fighter is of non importance to me. The colour of a guys skin is about as important as the colour of his trunks.
I do tend to root for the brits, but there's been times when i haven't.

I am willing to bet Ward has more white fans than Kovalev has black fans..
I do think Americans are supportive of their own as in black Americans support black American fighters, hispanic American fans support hispanic American fighters... Why would a white person root for someone like Muhammad Ali who believes we are the devil? I am team Kelly Pavlik til I die

why are many "americans" routing for the russian kid? what happened to loyalty to america??? and don't give me that ish about how you like styles and not just nationalities, ...........
who do you route for in the olympics?? america or other countries? so why now that ward is fighting kovolov do we got "fans" from america routing for Kovolov instead of the american ward?- He's boring to watch
- He likes to take dying men to court
- He lies non-stop
- He shows no sportsmanship when it comes to fight night
- He constantly cheats in the ring
It's only really his sheeple fan base that ignore all these facts.
I'll root for Wilder or Errol Spence IF I was American but there is just no way in hell would you see me rooting for such scumbags like Ward and Floyd It's just a bit like I don't always root for every British fighter I don't like Fury and I hope he will get KOed by Wlad but I'd root for Anthony Joshua because he has proven himself on every level he's likeable, doesn't have the personalty of wet sogging cardboard and he's not boring to watch all these things are things Ward has nothing in common with AJ.

BUT in any black mans defense I won't judge them for not feeling much love towards Kovalev he has done some rather racist things before so I can't hold that against them.

Because guys from Eastern Europe are more frequently come-forward fighters looking for the KO.
That style is more appealing to the majority of fans. When they watch a fight, they want to see a (brutal) KO, not a dancing class.

This fight has two top notch fighters, doesnt matter who you root for.
everyone has a preference
I like both fighters but Im pulling for ward....been a big fan since he won a gold medal
Kov grew on me after he 2013 coming out year
i like both but Ward is who I'd like to win, I always thought he was gonna take over after floyd left even during floyds last run, he was #2 p4p in my eyes until the long lay offs

Oh and by the way fuuck trump and any inbred xoxksucker who supports that piece of *****.
All you hear and see from them are racial, anti-American, derogatory attacks. It's so laughable that the ones pointing the fingers are the ones committing the crimes.
Where was Clinton when Lousianna needed help? Who has she been throwing under the bus for her email crimes? An African American political figure with a tremendous standing. Yet Trump and his supporters are "inbreds".
LMAO, go tell Dr. Ben Carson what an inbred he is then. It takes a special kind of ****** to vote for a person who wants to keep African Americans trapped in inner-cities, reliant on welfare, and hating their own country. That's what ********s do though, create their own problems so they can blame others.
