This happens all of the time. A fighter comes along, looks good and the fanboys come out. Then the haters appear but do they really hate the fighter or is it the fanboys? Often times, it seems like the fanboys drive this obviously.
Either way, name a fighter you actually like but don't often praise because his fanboys just get on your last nerve.
For me, it's Errol Spence. I like the guy. I like watching his fights and find him entertaining and he also seems like a humble well-spoken guy. What's not to like? His fans, when they hype into the best thing since Thomas Hearns. Hey, I like the guy, but he hasn't beaten any special fighters yet. He's passed the eye test but until he fights TC, Thurman, Porter or Garcia, I don't think he's the best welterweight. You have to prove yourself. And it's not just now, the fanboys hyped him up before he even fought Brook as being better than anybody. I mean, that's just crazy.
Anyway, who are yours?
