    Go collect your money then! I already told you I'll find you betting slips that took ggg. Print your score out and give it to them....
    No in most 12 round fights, there are quite a few close rounds...you can't give every close round to one guy, otherwise you can get really bad cards, or really bad decisions...you generally need to split close rounds.

    Btw...post your scorecards or stop responding to me...I've posted mine now a few times for you...so why don't you man up and post yours.

      Elements within his fanbase pissed off just about every other fanbase there was, that's pretty much all it boils down to... all this ish about him being overhyped or whatever are just the excuses really, whether there's an element of truth in 'em or not. His resume's decent even if lacking in top names, and he's had a solid enough career. He personally hasn't done anything more de****able or controversial than dozens of other fighters.

      Really started with a few of the Pacquiao dudes jumping on board after Pac got his lights turned out by JMM so they could continue the war against the Floydites and kinda snowballed from there. You know. Grade school stuff... once folk start calling each other names there's rarely any stopping 'em and usually that ish just escalates. .

          That's what happens when a fighter refuses to admit he was rewarded a gift in his last fight. Golovkin should have gave Dervychenko an immediate rematch or at the very least made a public announcement saying Dervy was the better man that night but he never did any of that so the hate is warranted.

            Well I mean race has a lot to do with it clearly...those who aren't white, by and large don't like GGG and really seem to feel very threatened by him/his success...I think a lot that feeling threatened had to do with his style, which was not a slick hit and not get hit style...but a seek and destroy style.

            They have to try to marginalize him because they personally feel threatened seeing such a dominant style in a white fighter...especially when he/his style are being contrasted to other fighters/styles from other groups - black, hispanic etc.

            Basically, as many things are, it's all about race really...but race can be a good unifier for people as well, and can cause people from similar backgrounds to have an easy common bond, even if they know little about each other...so I don't really think that blaming everyone on 'race' and making it out to be the bad guy all the time is very worthwhile either.

            It's just fandom man...and in fight sports 9 times out of 10 people will back their own race vs that of another...in GGG's case, other races felt threatened by him because of his style and dominance so they feel/felt compelled to try and marginalize him as much as possible...that's more or less the truth, but most of them will never admit that obviously.
            Dude the bold. So truth.

              It's the same reason 99% of these people loved him at one point. They love a winner and hate a loser. No one seems to remember when GG was king and they all laughed at Canelo.

                It's because he's not American or Mexican dude.

                It's pretty simple to see that American and Mexican fans are very one eyed.

                It's like they have to do 2 or 3 times as much as an American or Mexican fighter to get the same credit.... And not just credit, but it's like a pass, the moment they "lose" they then are dismissed.

                Look at Loma, if he was American he'd have earned 10x the money.
