Racially biased or flat-out racist. Needlessly antagonistic. Black is good, white sucks. That's what he's criticising. You can lie to yourself and pretend that's an attack on all black fans but it isn't. And if you can't see that this is a real element of the boxing fanbase, despite spending a lot of time talking boxing online, then I don't know what to say to you.

It's ok for others to support their own but when black people do it it's suddenly a problem. Personally I don't have a problem with fans supporting their own based on color, country of origin or nationality. People naturally root for teams. Since boxing is an individual sport people find something to root for and most times it's based on color or nationality. My problem is when it's a problem because black fans do it. Black fans are just as loyal, if not more so than Mexican fans. Look at what black fight fans did for boxing on youtube. While major newspapers and sports stations were cutting back boxing, black people created youtube stations to talk boxing. And that was before youtube was monetized.

Originally posted by A.K View PostI honestly don't see how anyone hates ggg as a boxer, he knocks guys out with ease that would go the distance with any other fighter and he has class in all his interviews even with limited English. Guys duck him and people twist it like ggg is scared when he's desperately looking for a megafight and all facts back this. Just wondering are people really that shallow cause he's Russian? Or cause Abel talks out his ass?
Nobody looks at Rios like some superstar now nor did they before. Just a guy knocking people out. Most don't remember anything from him except Chaves, Manny and Alvarado.
That's all I see from G. He gets tagged way too much, he was rocked by Brook on at least two occasions and backing up from a career welterweight, he's a hypocrite saying he'll drain to 154 for TBE but not Canelo, seems to only want to fight smaller guys, is a sucker for uppercuts, straight up and down.
And this isn't about Floyd. I'm a HUGE Tommy Hearns fan, but you know what? Hitman was a hell of a boxer AND a knockout artist with tremendous reach advantage and excellent strafing, with his defense only being put to real question against three opponents - all three Hall of Famers.
I like rounded fighters. Fighters that can hit and not get hit, or can go toe-to-toe with the best of them.
In G, I just see a guy with an iron chin and knockout power. If that's all I cared about, I'd go back and watch Tex Cobb fights.

He is one of the best and most exciting champions in boxing. He fights twice as often most other champions. He has KOed every one of the last 23 guys he fought. His next fight is with the best middleweight in the world next to himself. The hate for him comes from hateful, ******, so called boxing fans who just can't stand an undefeated champion who KOs everyone so easily.
