IMO the the difference was *****s and *******s were ****** and DKSAB but actually believed the crap they were saying whereas now we have more trolls who just say ****** stuff to try and stir the pot.

No, I really wouldn't.Anyone who has paid any attention and wants to be honest about it can draw correlations between the fanbases, as far as this forum is concerned. That doesn't mean that it includes every individual here, but to deny that a lot of Pac fans became GG fans and May fans started supporting Ward is just foolish. Would you say more GG fans used to be May fans or Pac fans?
Make sense now?
I would say a bunch of racially motivated agenda driven trolls who pretend to be boxing fans would pose as such.
Real boxing fans on here, I don't see that kind of trend at all.
I am tired of having to be labeled anti-Floyd for being a vocal Golovkin fan after having been so loyal to Floyd all these years.Comment

Mannnn not even close
I lost my 2008 account unfortunately but I remember back then when pacquiao beat dela Hoya
boxing scenes focus shifted ,(pacquiao was appreciated by all before this)
The hype was crazy after that
It only enhanced when he fought Hatton and cotto (floyd coming back created that perfect rival )
It was the only thing that was spoken about on here (which I believe lost a lot of the good posters)
*******s and *****s appeared by the hundreds and were more interested arguing about the pre fight negotiations than the fight
Canelo GGG doesn't come close
Some GGG & canelo fans are more than likely ex pacquiao and floyd fans, so yes it's the same old ****
but pacquiao and floyd were just immensely more popular
It was the style clash
The guy who couldn't miss vs the guy who couldn't be hit
And 24 7 was the ****
We'd all watch and then comment about it all week until the next one
Damn shame they didn't fight after that cotto and Mosley fight
2009 was the year to happen
Really bummed out about thatComment

The thing with pacquiao and floyd is they really tried to one up eachother each fight
Whereas it's a weird ass build up with canelo and GGG
Who knows if those two will ever fight
There not intertwined like pacquiao and floyd were
Ain't the same rivalry IMO
The posters may be just as spastic
But nothing on the hypeComment

The beef will generally always be the same, the fighters names just change now and again. I suppose since I have been on here however, the Pac/May tard beef has been the largest so far.
I stayed well clear of all that lol.Comment

He's not reviled by the majority of boxing fans, it's just that his haters make the most noise - no one likes an uppity, rich man, and especially not a black one in America. Compare with the warm reception he always gets in the UK.Comment

Pac fans are generally more bitter and hateful I find because they revered him and Mayweather crucified him.Comment
-
Yes, GGG fans and Pac fans share similar traits. Servitude, blind loyalty and hate for darker races.Comment

Lol GGG-Canelo are nowhere near big as Pac-floyd. Not even remotely comparable.
Ggg-canelo are bush leagues compared to the other two.Comment
