Green K TS, well said and valid points. I really get frustrated when I see this shit on here. You are basically forced to pick sides or you get categorise in to different sections. I like someone to win but I might not pick that person to win due to a numbers of reasons. Doesn't mean I don't like that boxer and it doesn't mean am rooting for his failure etc I don't pick based on where they are from, colour, nationality etc I just pick based on my opinion sometimes, I can get sway to picking a boxer when watching and listening to other boxers that has been in there with them before etc but I have never picked a boxer based on some emotional connection.
I was like Where's the logic? How did you even get to that conclusion?
That's how ******ed it isComment

LOL yea you aren't wrong about the pick a side thing. I did a kinda sorta rant yesterday about that type of bs cuz its like you can't say anything good about someone without being labeled a fanboy of a particular guy nor can you say anything bad about that same guy in a different post without being labeled a hater of a particular guy by some of these dummies. If you say a good thing & a bad thing about the same guy in the same post you mostly just confuse these dumb mfers.
There are for sure a lot of simple minded boxing fans that can't look very deeply into a boxer nor fully digest the complexities & complications with him & his talent + shortcomings.Comment

It's the fans, announcers, and promoters people hate.
GGG for instance is a really exciting boxer to watch. He's the type of fighter most people love. I really want to be a fan of his, but his unrealistic fans make it hard. They can't let him be what he is, they have to try to elevate him to All Time status before he's beaten anyone good. And the HBO slappies deserve some of the blame too, but I guess they are just trying to sell one of their fighters. GGG's promoters share a lot of the blame for the fact that he is 33 and is just now starting to fight quality opposition. I'll tell you this, if GGG had been fighting good fighters starting when he was 25 he would be almost universally liked, he'd probably have a loss or two by now, but he'd be considered a warrior who was an exciting KO artist.
Loma is the same thing, this guy has 9 total pro fights and people are comparing him to Pacquaio and Mayweather. Let him earn that over the next few years, if he stays active he won't need a ton of years as he's started out fighting top guys even though he waited to turn pro. Loma gets to 20-0 and he'll deserve to be compared to Manny and Floyd, not before then.
Heck, some people don't like Crawford, not sure what that's about.
Also don't understand the Ward hate.Comment
