It's funny how Floyd fanatics have now jumped on Canelo's snake

Americans used Lennox Lewis all the time against the klitschko fans
"TKO6" and all that.
But then when you compared lewis to any of the ATG american heavies suddenly lewis became a bum who they would all brutally murder.
Fact is most americans on these forums only support american fighters or will rep a fighter if they enhance their agenda.
Most foreigners will support a fighter regardless of nationality because they like his style or personality or whatever.
It is what it is.Last edited by SkillspayBills; 05-20-2017, 02:32 PM.

You are the same cringworthy guy boasting about floyds scary win against pacquiao, acting as if it was so,e first time thing beating better than marquez ko of pacquiao. Why cant you be honest man that fight was boring and pacquiao proved you wrong, floyd couldnt even hurt a washed up one armed manny. Acting like people cared, if those pactars cried it was from the jmm ko.
You pick manny to get ko in every fight yet I have no credibility. Stop it

Originally posted by Redd Foxx View PostI can't really relate to the way Americans view foreign fighters but I've seen some of what you're talking about so it has the ring of truth.
Regarding how other countries see fighters, I've noticed many of the British and Canadian posters on here HEAVILY favoring their own fighters. In fact, many of them will never pick against their own. Those two countries seem far more nationalistic than Americans, who generally aren't all that loyal to their own fighters.
Again though, I do see Americans doing what you said and the Lennox thing is a good example. Fury to a lesser extent.

Originally posted by considerthis View PostAs a canadian, i ask who are all these fighters i should be favoring? I don't care for most top level fighters from canada...lemieux, pascal, stevenson...they're nothing special imo. Part of it could be that I'm from the west coast...there's a big divide between us over here and quebec/ontario. I personally haven't noticed much favoritism for canadian fighters, but i only have my own circle to base that on.
I kinda feel bad for them because I have a lot of Canadian clients and friends and know how passionate they are about their country and the accomplishments of their countrymen. I with they had a better group of boxers to root for (they had some fantastic MMA fighters).
I'm one of these Americans who doesn't support his countrymen so I don't understand nationalism too well, but I'm not against people having countrymen to root for if that's their thing.

4 years ago they were trashing him. Now they're deepthroating him
Their devotion to the cause is something else
And it's a big slurping session that has multiplied tenfold since the Canelo/GGG rivalry started. Hopes have been pinned on Canelo. If Canelo doesn't win on September 16th, it's gonna get ugly on here.

It's really conspicuous, which is the only reason I mentioned that.
