Re: Who was the most hated fighter of all-time?
Of all time is a shit load of time...
I would say; Max Schmeling, Jack Johnson & Ali.
The hate that Zab, PBF & Tyson have/ahd is not even close to what the 1st ones I mentioned faced.

Ali certainly had his share of hatred, but unlike Johnson, Ali was revered as much as he was hated, I never cared for him as a person, but damn he was fun to watch boxing.
Max Schmeling left for Germany after he lost to Louis in 1938, and although there was a lot of Anti-Nazi/German sentiment in America at the time, there was also quite a bit of pro-German/Nazi, sentiment. In 1938, the Nazi's were still a few years away from being rejected/hated in America and elsewhere in the world.
Contrary to popular belief, Schmeling was not nearly as hated as some in the media then and now would have you believe, and not all Americans were hoping that Louis would win the rematch. ( I hate revisionist history)

Re: Who was the most hated fighter of all-time?
It just seems to me like there's so many sides to a story, that much of the time there's not just one way to look at things. The old saying that there's one right way to do things, simply isn't true, there's more than one way to skin a cat?What? No ,Im just saying it brings the hatred full circle and back into real perspective is all.
Nazis /white supremacy fucktards its one big unhappy circle of blame others existance for their own dick size.
Are the white supremest fucktards always the bad guys and always wrong? I think not, that's just too fucking simple.
Jack Johnson by far...and he enjoyed it

Re: Who was the most hated fighter of all-time?
how abut Roberto Duran after "no mas"?
or Larry holmes after beatng Ali?
Re: Who was the most hated fighter of all-time?
Andrew Golota for me he just seemed like a dirty quitter to me. Larry Holmes is up there, he always seemed to have a chip on his shoulder and it showed. As of late David Haye and judging by the tweets and Facebook comments Floyd Mayweather.

By far Chris Eubank, it was disturbing in pubs/clubs to see and hear so many guys seething 'Fucking Eubank, what a Wanker, WANKER' and no hints of smiles, only anger... lol.

Re: Who was the most hated fighter of all-time?
I see several people mentioned John Ruiz...I've never really known anyone to say they disliked him, much less say he's one of the most hated. Why is he hated, what did I miss?
