    I think most people like Wlad. I can't see why anyone would dislike him, apart from the boring fights but he's a nice guy, so it can be excused.

    However, Vitali is a cheat, a hypocrite, a ducker and the list goes on. K2 are also the most unscrupulous promotional group out there and they only have 3 fighters, I think. Seriously, there are a huge amount of accusations towards K2 for their poor offers the fact is, that hurts boxing because it's likely to be true.

    But most people don't hate them. They just hate their idiotic fanbase.

    Nobody hates Vitali for that fight, they just hate his moronic fanbase who refuse to admit he was inevitably going to lose in either the 7th or 8th round and claim the loss as some sort of victory.

    I hate them because they're classy, educated, successful and white, and I am none of those things even though I wish that I were. I suspect that many people feel the same way that I do.

    I actually don't mind them, if anything I think they're great for the sport. Same with Pacquiao and Mayweather. That being said they have quite a number of fans who are douchebags and that keeps me out of the threads about them for the most part, same with Mayweather and Pacquiao. Its a shame because some of their fans are great posters, they're just let down by the incredibly active and incredibly ******ed douchebags.

    Its one thing that probably stops me getting completely behind them, I don't want to be associated with such people.

    I have noticed that nearly all of the Klitschko haters will list only black boxers when asked who their favorites are, and most of them have a black fighter in their avatar. That makes me wonder whether their motive is a racial one.

    I don't like the way they are talked up by a lot of people. Many of their fans think they are among the greatest of all times when they have collectively beaten no great and only a handful of very good fighters. I also think that their fights are boring. Nationality obviously comes into it too - I would prefer a British or American fighter but I do like some Eastern European fighters and detest some who are from other English speaking countries.
