Maybe many Ward and Mayweather fans hate GGG because Ward and Mayweather hate him. Ask War Mikey or Robocop. They are professional GGG haters among many other GGG haters. If GGG wins tonight this will be a sad place for his haters. If he losses they will be overjoyed.
    If GGG were American you'd be his biggest critic.

      People have no answer, so they will say Abel Sanchez or his fans. Just exposes them. Since they always refer to GGG does that and this, Bumlovkin sucks, Triplegay is trash etc. They always adress the fighter and not Abel or his fans.

        And if he were African-American you'd be his biggest fan

          The only thing I dislike about GGG is his extreme fanboys, actually with all fighters its the fans that put you off them.

            Is it that he is clean cut, handsome and has no tatoos?
            Does it bother some people that a White man is the face of boxing?
            Is it because he doesn't engage in trash talk?
            Or are people just going to say it's his resume?

            What is there not to like? We are very lucky to be in this era to witness a supreme boxer like GGG.
            Damn white boy stealing other people's shine.

                • Refuses to go up in weight
                • Refuses to fight the A-side Canelo and accept B-side terms as appropriate
                • Makes excuses about why he didn't fight Ward and Canelo yet is fine mixing it up with a welterweight
                • Had the nerve to say on First Take that Canelo isn't a big money fight
                • Will fight another welterweight (TBE) at 154 but won't fight Canelo at 155



                I don't even want to discuss the resume. It doesn't matter. The fact remains that he's a hypocrite walking.

                  Wilder is clumsy, not exciting.

                    I used to not be fan because of his resume and thought he was overrated. But im a fan of boxing and hes an entertaining fighter so i just stopped hating, i dont get why he gets so much hate. Dude puts on exciting fights ever single time he steps into the ring and isnt that what fans want? Ive noticed a trend that alot of pro black race baiters are usually the fans that dont like GGG and that is honestly justt pathetic. If you cant like someone because of their ethnicity that is just retarted.

                      I don't like him or hate him. Fundamentally I think he is limited. He has good basic boxing skills, can take a punch and can hit hard. But he is also very hittable, and would have trouble with a guy who is quick on his feet and has speedy hands. I don't see anything very special about him, but he is fun to watch and I can appreciate a fighter who comes to fight and close the show. I'm not a fan of ballerinas and clinchers, so he is a welcome departure from that style.
