The Most hated/disliked Boxers Right Now

[Dark Lord Al]

i understand why people would dislike Haye as he is arrogant , as is Floyd , Khan as you say hasn't proven himself yet for all his hype , and any boxer who cheats eg, Margarito, then i understand why people dislike him also.
But i have to ask why would anyone HATE PACMAN ?
1. He is a clean living guy.
2. He fights in BIG fights.
3. He is a puncher with tireless stamina.
4. He has come through the weight classes.
5. He never bad mouths anyone.
6. He is exciting to watch.
7. He is in my opinion a GREAT fighter.
So why hate him because some of his fans are assholes ??

Yeah, I don't think that anybody hates pacman (unless they themselves are a fanboy of Mexican fighters) but his fans are so irritating that it makes people want to see him lose.

The problem is that they're not real boxing fans, most of them have just jumped onto the wagon that set off from the Philippines and went crazy along the way.

It's understandable (though still very annoying), if you were from a country with little weight in the international sporting world (watch me get burned for telling it like it is) and even less in boxing and then one of your countrymen becomes a boxing phenomenon then I imagine that it's gonna be hard not to lose your mind and become hysterical/blinkered like these Pac minions are.

British/American/Mexican/European etc fans don't completely lose their minds this much over the likes of Kilitscho/Floyd/Hopkins/Calzaghe/Marquez etc because we're used to having people in the upper levels of the sport all the time anyway.

Once Pacman has hung up his gloves wait and see how many of these minions still follow the sport as legitimate, genuine boxing fans.

(before I get castrated for this I'd like to point out that I know the difference between:

a) a genuine pac fan
b) a genuine Filipino boxing fan
c) a Pac minion

It's the latter I take issue with and am talking about)

I think you typed out everything that makes sense. Not too many fighters from Asian countries are well known and this good and one guy comes along that hits the international stage so there are going to be bad fans. But those bad fans in my opinion are probably the most visible and loudest so there is a negative image being churned out right now. And you said it best that a large segment of his fans are so irritating that people just want to see him lose.


To get back on track I see quite a lot of boxing fans that really don't like Judah. Could be the guy's attitude and the potential that he never reached.

He's a funny one Judah... a lot of people dislike him because he's an under achiever and acts like a fool but you get a lot of people like Starr etc who seem to make excuse after excuse for the guy.
