Im American, Ive never based my like or dislike for a boxer on their nationality. Ive rooted for foreign boxers over American boxers and vice versa. I never really new it was a thing until I started paying attention here.Comment

I'd like that to be a thing in the UK. I don't really consider myself a fan of any boxer. I quite like George Groves but if he loses I don't give s.hit.
But over here boxing is very much about regional or national allegiances. But the profile is shifting a bit.
If there was ever a time to market a foreigner fighter in the UK it's is now.
Might have to become a fan of the Kazakh Hearn signed.Comment

You don't get it. That's OK. It's a fairly simple correlation but seeing as how you can't get through a post without throwing a tantrum and calling names, it makes sense that you might not understand.You're not sad about anything. You brought something up that had nothing to do with the topic in the question and went on a rant exposing how you truly feel about us. As I say, I hope you open your poisonous mouth when you're over here and we'll see how you like us then. You're c*n who quite clearly has a problem with us. ****head.
I'll leave it at that but if you want to tell me what a mean c%nt I am one more time, go for it.Comment

You probably walked round with a fanny-pack asking for directions like all fat Americans do when over here.Comment

Loma hasn't been a pro long enough or had enough pro fights to get anywhere near Floyd's level.It’s probaly because those fighters haven’t really caught up yet. Guys like you prematurely elevate them and then can’t understand why some people get mad.
For example, To have to read GGG and Loma are On the same level as Hagler and Floyd gets aggravating and may cause posters to respond.
I don't see any reason why GGG shouldn't be compared to Hagler though, given what he's achieved so far at MW.
Yeah, Hagler was undisputed and lineal champion, but he didn't have the multiple titles and political bull**** that GGG has had to contend with during his era.
And Hagler was able to build his career by working his way up the ladder in his own country. He didn't have to base himself in a foreign country, then move again to yet another country in his 30s to get the chances his talent deserved, the way Golovkin did.
I'm a big fan of Hagler, so that's no disrespect to him. I just happen to rate GGG very highly too.Comment

It’s called nationalistic pride but some take it way too far. But it goes both waysweve seen years and years of irrational abuse against golovkin (one of the most mild mannered fighters in the sport), purely because hes a good fighter not from america. Now lomachenkos the guy with a target on his back, again, because hes from europe. Even though hes fighting world class fighters before hes even reached his 10th fight, hes hated.
now as soon as joshua starts doing well, we are getting all these anti-uk threads. 'uk fans said this, uk fans are obnoxious, uk fans arent used to having good fighters'
WHy dont you guys shut the **** up for once and quit crying that other countries have caught up with you.... youve still got plenty of top fighters so stop ****ting on everyone else.
its not all of you but when i look at the hate filled bull**** against these fighters, its always the same type of american posters.Comment
