When did it become about patriotism? Why are American fans even acting like they care about the sport it’s dying a death over here. Isn’t it better if Hearn comes over and brings some success? I saw nothing but hatred for Haymon last year now Hearn is the new villain?
    It started after you guys talked about you had the most World champions. Yall had a "I have some ice cream and you can't get none, talk behind the fence" mentality.

    And next was that stiff ****en coward lowballing Wilder because he's scared to fight him. That's how it started. And if boxing is dying over here in the US lmao, what boxers are on the horizon in the UK besides Joshua and Conlan? Lmao...

      We want Hearn to be successful. Anything that can help boxing I'm down with. But he talks to much. And he thinks that he can control everything and everyone in boxing and the world knows that he's ****en scared to let his main cash cow fight Wilder. He's scared. He always been scared. He's scared that the limelight will go away at the blink of an eye of Joshua loses. Promoters and fighters who have no faith never survive in this sport.

          Yeah I really don’t get that too. Due to the whole Joshua/Wilder debate everyone is going nationality crazy. I really couldn’t care less. But I know some think I care about the British guy. I just like to cut it the way I see it, irrespective of what is American or British.

            So Americans can't be Prideful Basically because it is Unfair for us to be I guess

            While other people can will Take an entire region of the world and try to match them up against America and use them as the face of their Anti American Agenda.
            You can be prideful as you want I suppose I just wondered when it started seem to be the two biggest groups on these forums nowadays.
