    Cheers, man, and seasons greeting to you. You're calling people for doing the exact same thing that you do, though. You must be aware of that.

        well duh man....i mean....ya....of course im doing the same thing.....but im asking questions and looking for answers

        i dont want to hate on golovkin....but the way some of you act, as a true boxing fan myself, sometimes i must ask questions and needle the fanbases

        why is canelo always hated on....but golovkin is so revered.....why? what has golovkin done besides knock out C level comp? golovkin has exhibited some of the same behavior that canelo is criticized for

        i dont need the hypocrisy of my posts pointed out...thats the easy way out for some of you....im looking for logical answers

          "They were ****ting on Cotto for asking for a catchweight, then defended Golovkin asking for one. Shat on Canelo for fighting Khan, then defended Golovkin fighting Brook."-even though i think robbie is ridiculous for his views on AJ/Wilder he is on point here

          GGG ducked ward altogether in search of canelo and the payday

          canelo made some very nice coin fighting cotto and khan and still gave GGG his fight....yet is called a chicken

          WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!

            Golovkin has a dedicated cadre of haters who start threads pretty much on the daily, so the premise of your thread is false, man. Thing is - and this seems to be weird artifact of internet forums - each side is so absorbed in their position they're unable to perceive the truth. Dudes like your good self believe the boards are overrun by slaveringly obsessive Golovkin fans, the Golovkin fans genuinely believe that the forums is full of Golovkin haters who do nothing but post non-stop vitriol about the dude. Truth is far more prosaic. They (and you) are simply spending too much time reading the same sort of **** by the same small minority of posters over and over again. Bunch of loosers, the lot of 'em (us). Take your own advice, man, go get a life. S'all angels on a pinhead, anyway, man.

              but for certain ward and floyd have accomplished more than golovkin.....even canelo has accomplished, arguably, more than golovkin and is years younger

              im all for some playful ribbing of guys and banter....dissing some guys here and there.......but it seems some have almost 0 respect for certain guys.....

              you claiming ward is fouler has no merit...his attitude is irrelevant to his career and performances.....and just an FYI.....arum confirmed that floyd agreed to fight margarito....but floyd asked for future guarantees for fights with hatton and cotto after that...and he wanted something like 4-6 million total more than bob was willing to give him....bob confirmed this "the kid wants the moon...hes not realistic".......bob actually said nice things when they originally parted ways....until floyd started working with oscars company....see ole bob thought floyd was gonna use TR the way he ended up using golden boy to help promote his fights....when he used oscars company ole bob flipped his lid and began smearing floyd.....i have articles and quotes of bob confirming floyd agreed .......after floyd started using golden boy he was unable to secure fights with TR guys....ole bob let floyd walk over 6 million bucks....and bob is notorious for saying "i cant do an oscar fight...i will lose money and it wont sell".....which he was dead wrong about

              like i said...im all for some good natured ribbing about guys...its sports and entertainment....everyone has certain guys they lean towards or gravitate toward....but it seems some around here have no respect for certain guys no matter what they do.....
              It doesn't matter who's more successful. Brainless haters like you don't care about that, all they care about is picking on fighters they hate over smallest things or just simply lying and rewriting history. Look at this threads for example. Canelo said 'in Mexico we don't **** around' in front of the whole world and then proceeded to fight Khan, Smith and fight at his made up 155 limit. It was one of the clearest ducks I've seen. And yet here you are asking why is he hated like he's the victim here not Lil G lmao. That's ignorance at its finest.

              Those were just examples, I could come up with many more. You say me claiming Ward is a fouler has no merit... How am I suppose to take you seriously when you say things like this? Of course he's a fouler and has fouled in many fights, including his biggest fights, and I have videos to prove it.

              Floyd had a 7 million offer to fight Margarito didn't accept it and fought Mitchell for 4 million instead. That's a duck.

              You choose to ignore these facts because you're a fanboy and that's fine. Just stop accusing others of the things you do as well.

                Are you kidding me? You're up here complaining about fans attacking people, yet here you go throwing insults...

                And to address the crux of your post, I am giving an inch. I'm saying all fanbases do it. I'm saying it takes two to tango. I'm not the one saying, Oh, it was just one side and the other side had to retaliate. That's you saying that

                  of course there are anti golovkin threads every day...and there are 2-3 every day about floyd and ward...its all responsive and defensive action

                  see my thing is...kind of my point....these same fans are going to take loma down the same road.....loma is a guy that really no boxing fan should hate...hes great....but theyve already began to take him down that road with teh floyd threads and ward cheating threads and what have you.....but they are going to knock the **** out of floyd ward canelo cotto etc until people loathe loma

                  and a part of me thinks some of these guys want that...they feed off it...they want most of the board to hate on a guy so they can live through their triumphs and point the "told u so" finger

                    Yeah. It's hilarious.
                    Mexicans love the Lil G more than they love Cnelo.
