when i look at all my favorites coming up; Marvin, Mike, Pernell, Roy, i realized they were all American
then i broadened my horizons and just rooted for whoever entertained me, regardless of nationality...that's when it went next level...Mexican boxing, the special Asian fighters, the unique South American fighters...and now these killers from the Eastern Bloc...plenty of entertainment for me these days
but back on topic, i'm sure GGG would have a much bigger fanbase if he was African American and laying people out...think Jeff Lacy hype times 300
I agree that if GGG were an American he'd have far more hype and exposure but again that would be in part because his Olympic career would have been televised here and one of the big promoters, almost surely TR, would have signed him.
I think any fighter, but especially an American, that has all his fights on US TV from the time he tunrs pro, would be more popular than a dude from Kazakstan that just hit US TV after his 20th fight.

There are not literally thousands and thousands of posts on GGG a day. There are barely 2,000 posts a day in NSB nowadays.
You and everyone else knows NSB has a small segment of African American/black posters that post regularly. Even if everyone single one of us hated GGG and made a thread a day, it wouldn't move he needle the slightest.
Whereas you have kigali and his other alt's that have like 7-8 + thousand posts in less than a year, and i guarantee you every single one of them is about golovkin, if i didnt have them all on ignore, this forum would be unreadable, it's incredible they haven't been banned tbh.

He'd be just another very good fighter that's unproven vs the elite and would be talked about as such.
No P4P placement and a lot less **** sucking from his current dick riders on here and hype from HBO and the media
