Losing Respect for UK Fans

[Deus]

I normally like the UK fans but there has been a rash of obnoxiousness coming from that side of the Atlantic lately. It's become obvious that most of them have the soccer-fan mentality where they just root for their countrymen out of nationalism. If they want to go that route, they are laughable as they aren't touching the US and MX in terms of boxing talent. People in that pool are just puffing their chests out and looking to Hearn's twitter for their scripts.

What would really impress me is if we once again had a lot of BOXING fans from the UK who took special pride in their boys, but could still appreciate the sport in general. We had that a few years back. I think Hearn's walmartification of UK boxing soured that...

Do you not see that it's exactly the same on your side of the Atlantic with the Wilder fanboys and the 'we are the best' US rhetoric?

This forum is basically this:
UK fanboy: Joshua is the best! Wilder ducked Whyte. Priced himself out!
US fanboy: Joshua is ****, keep ducking Wilder. Real boxers fight in the US!!!1!
UK fanboy: lolol your living in the past. The US is irrelevant now.
US fanboy: UK fans dksab. Were the best!

As for your second point; yeh it'd impress me too. I joined this site after viewing it for years because of my desire to talk boxing but ever since Joshua v Wilder started gaining traction battle lines appear to have been drawn and has literally drowned this place in dross. Thing is even this thread itself serves no purpose other than to dismiss UK fans so it's just the same ****.

This has been going on since aj went life and death with a old fury owned klitchko. They will say anything to avoid a wilder fight like no one knows wilder, but takam type fights make perfect sense

[FaustoGeraci]

It's pathetic around here. Reminds me of the old Mexico VS Puerto Rico days, and Floyd VS Pacquiao. How any "fan" would rather see Joshua and Wilder fight others is beyond me. That shows a real fear. But let's have Joshua fight Miller or a bum like Takam.

UK folks bash on Americans for not supporting their own, unless it's convenient to say stuff like that^, then the script changes. Americans don't support Wilder. Remember how you guys argue that wilder makes no money? Lol. Consistency man...

Wilder is SHOOK, he SCARED! He DUCK Whyte too many times! You can't RUN for ever Alabama COWARD!

The entire forum is SHOOK apparently ? I did a thread to discuss Wilders fanbase and it gets locked ,this guy does a thread to insult an ENTIRE country and its o.k ?

Wilders cry babies are going to be lost when Joshua puts his lights out ,they will disperse like roaches when the light is turned on!

[Scopedog]

Between the Clenelo stans and the UK ones on here it's become an even more insufferable forum than it normally is

It's bad sure, but let's not pretend it's worse than when Mayweather and Pacquiao were both active

I believe its a duck they dont want to cash in on wilder its not enough money

But saying uk fans are weird for supporting their fighters is no more weird as usa fans hating on theirs vs ppl from other countries in a land where patriotism is banded around its confusing why they wanted a fighter who wore the flag with pride rose from nothing to become a millionaire and be the best of his generation through hard work and dedication to lose to a suspected drug cheat from the Philippines

If Wilder gets through the lot - we'll consider letting him fight Audley in a rematch.

Seriously, I agree with what another poster said I don't think I've seen anyone say they don't want this fight AJ/Wilder.

Some have trolled for a laugh and others have said reasonably that Whyte has been engineered into a no1 position for Wilder's title. He wants a piece of Wilder as is his right.

I do understand that UK fans have to demand the AJ/Wilder's fight or it doesn't happen.

But let's see. If Parker chins AJ then what? I'm guessing probably a rematch.

The whole thing would have happened already if Wilder didn't have to promote himself.

[SugarRayCurtain]

Wilder needs to be realistic with his demands, you can expect AJ to accept what Wilder is proposing

That said I dont personally like AJ that much, hes boring outside the ring, hes fake and hes likely a closet racist
Hes exciting to watch in the ring but dont know why Tyson Fury never even got close to the same love, he can be daft but atleast he speaks his mind and isnt a closet racist.
