I think a lot of people are like what's happened to American boxers having fans.

If Floyd fought Manny or pretty much anyone not from the USA most Americans would be rooting for Manny.

If Ward fought Golovkin again most would root for Golovkin.

It's a peculiar self hate, if JMM fought Manny in Mexico city you wouldn't see Mexicans saying I hope Manny knocks him out.
