Why are people so bitter about fighters?

[Poppo168]

This forum is especially bad for posters being bitter about fighters they've never met.

They're fighting for your entertainment and have done nothing to hurt or offend you, why get so emotionally invested?

seems pathetic to me that a boxing match can make people so jaded and bitter.

it would be interesting to see the lives of these hateful posters as I imagine it would be very sad,

Cheer up boys, it's just two men punching each other..

Floyd fans have been saying this since the ODH fight.

The kind of stuff we are seeing has been ok for years on NSB and now suddenly ggg fans, many of whom were the main architects of this stuff, now want it to stop.

I just don't understand how people can have so much hatred and anger towards a famous athlete they've never met. I think that has to be some kind of mental disorder that goes undiagnosed.

People hated Floyd, Pac to a smaller extent and now GGG.

Some fans are just failures in life.

Aren't a lot of fans of ALL sports like this to some degree or another? It's not exclusively a boxing thing, people are just passionate (arguably too passionate at times) about their favorite sports.

All kidding aside, I knew this guy who absolutely loathed Mayweather and this was when Mayweather was stopping guys like Gatti and DC. It was only a few years later that I discovered that his wife had left him for a Jamaican. Make of that what you will.

Real reason GGG is hated

I'm just a fan of boxing and yeah people do get passionate about things but turning it into hatred for another boxer is ****** and weak.

Yet another blame the black people video.

All the race bias and hate on here is a joke too, there's guilty parties on both sides and it's childish as ***.

People of all races and nationalities thought GGG lost to Jacobs and prior to the Jacobs fight criticized his resume, not just black people.
