More like 99+%, but I take your point.

There is a strange breed who call themselves boxing fans but seem to passionately despise virtually all boxers, bar their own two or three favourites. You don't get it in other sports. No golf fan, say, would describe a player who finished 30th in the Masters as a bum or garbage because he finished a few shots behind Tiger Woods.

Odd.
