Who is the most disliked fighter on BoxingScene?

[The Big Dunn]

Yeah, I think even the odds makers had it about even. I remember a poll on Ring's website had about 20 experts pick the fight and more picked Russell. Loma wasn't as hated back then but a lot of people picked Russell to win on the forums, social media etc;. A LOT.

I think it is considered a good win but just not by people that hate fighters from a certain part of the world and some of those folks were very high on GRJ.

I was at this fight and close to the ring. Very impressive performance and very dominant perhaps a little more than I predicted (I had it 11-1). I think Loma has improved more than Russell but I also went to GRJ's fight with Gonzalez and he was very, very impressive in that one. I just wish he'd fight more. He's got elite talent and is fun to watch.

It is sad that you correlate picking Russell with hating Loma. Nothing wrong with thinking Russell might win. Why do you equate picking a guy to lose with "hating " him?

No, the people that say Russell is a nobody are the people that hate Haymon.

I didn't. I said people just picked Russell. I even made that point it's before Lomachenko was hated so it was a pick more based on Boxing and using a level head.

I said in hindsight it's not considered good by certain people due to the region where he's from.

[The Big Dunn]

no thats complete crap and u know it.

No dramashow it isn't. You guys do this all the time.

The other thing you do is devalue when a Haymon guy wins but lift someone if the same guy loses to a non haymon guy.

That is why I asked you about Pedrazza last week. A ton of guys said he was nothing when Tank destroyed him.

Now that Loma is fighting him watch how certain guys change.

I'd say it's well received but god win? That's Duran-Leonard, Greb-Tunney, Ali-Foreman etc;

LOL saw that and changed it. thanks.

Amir khan, it seems like he has absolutely no fans anymore

[boliodogs]

I think it's Broner 1st and Khan a close second. Two truly dislikable boxers in my opinion. GGG might be the most hated because of where he is from and the fact that nobody can beat him so far. He is a polite likable guy in my opinion.It's strange such an exciting hard punching boxer is so hated. I think the hate for him will actually increase if he beats Canelo. His hate club will come up with a new guy or two who they insist can surely beat him and who he is supposedly ducking.

Khan is a likeable character when he isn’t talking boxing

I can see it shifting to Charlo on Sunday morning if the fight is judged correctly.

Andrade won't do because he's a Hearn guy, Jacobs has already lost, Saunders is probably considered on the other side too so that leaves Charlo who'd get absolutely wrecked.

[boliodogs]

It used to be Floyd as he was #1 but right now I’d say GGG seems to have it bad on here I guess it’s only because he has so many weird fans though, I don’t even think the hate is directed at him more his fan base. Peculiar.

You might be right about GGG getting some hate because of his fans. Of course he has no control over who his fans are or what they post on here.When I see him being trashed unfairly I stick up for him just as I would for any other boxer who didn't deserve to be trashed. The funny part is all the hate for boxers on here never bothers the boxers it's directed at because they probably never read any of it. It's only fans of the hated boxers who get offended.I can't help but stick up for boxers who get unreasonable hate. I should try to remember the boxer will never read it anyway.

GGG is but Canelo or Broner should be.

they already have their contingency plan- jermall charlo. a few might latch onto dereveyenchenko if he beats jacobs but ultimately hes still a white european so if dereveyenchenko was to get the win then he himself would need a boogeyman, which again would be jermall charlo.
