    Because simply it isn't about boxing with them.

    He has decimated their hopes and their dreams.

    This was supposed to be their era but it's not happened and they are deeply hurt. I have a friend who works in mental health and he said that last night, their self harm helplines actually crashed under the sheer volume of calls. They have actually had to get extra people in to man the phones. Counsellors and psychiatrists are stretched to maximum capacity.

    My advice for canelo fans is to ignore their ever changing standards and just enjoy greatness. And have sympathy for them haters. Taking L's over and over and over again must be so painful

    I think the reason many people dislike him has nothing to do with his boxing abilities. no doubt he is a talented boxer. But as a personality, he's very dull, uncharismatic... he almost never smiles... he's just very unlikable. I think that has a lot to do with the hate. then you look at a guy like Usyk, who doesn't even know english, and he has 1000x more personality and sense of humor than Canelo, and he's just as good inside the ring! He will be the real star of boxing in a year or two. So boxing ability isn't all the boxing fans care about.

    Totally unadulterated Bull Feces!!!
    Unbiased REAL boxing fans refuse to embrace Canelo because......
    1.... He is a PROVEN ped's abuser. Even his Uncle Bob had to admit that when he got caught red handed popping dirty TWICE! for Clenbuterol
    2... He has received "winning" decisions against GGG, Lara & Trout he did not deserve.
    3... He cowardly handed hack the bogus WBC belt he claimed because he refused to defend it at the legal limit
    of 160. Even his own countrymen disowned him
    4... He claimed he wasnt a 160 fighter yet today just months after he's fought & won at 168 & 175
    Canelo is the biggest fraud in boxing since Mayweather jr
    Thats why real boxing fans do not respect him

    Fanboys, after round 10: Kovalev is schooling Canelo 9-1!

    Fanboys, after watching round 11: Kovalev is a shot 36 year old!

    Fanboys, the next morning: The fight was fixed!

    They are a wretched bunch.

    When I start to read their posts I just see crying babies in my head.

    Canelo has ended their dreams and taken their souls.

    Well no. he has handpicked a little. Floyd did it also. It seems to be a thing people do. In other sports to win a championship you cannot handpick the team you want to play. That Rocky Fielding fight? He shouldn't have won a title with that. This fight? Kovalev is damaged goods and was for a long time, and people know the blueprint to beat him. Get him into the later rounds and his stamina falls apart and then start to land to his body.

    I find it hard to believe that self harm helplines crashed over this fight.

    The A side B side bs is something Canelo is famous for. Almost as much as his in ring ability. Everybody was surprised and giving Canelo props when there were no weight stipulations, only to find out there was a rehydration clause.

    Usyk on the other hand travels and, without controversy, beats people in their own backyard.

    I hate Canelo - in sporting terms - this much is true but to say people apply ever changing standards is as usual for those those living vicariously through Canelo complete horse crap.

    If you can find a case of me defending someone failing a drugs test, getting consistently biased judging, enforcing stupid catchweights and rehydration clauses on their opponents then that'd work but it's not the case as real boxing fans don't support that kind of malarkey no matter who does it. That he does all of those things is why I don't like him.

    I'm also utterly unsurprised that the OP is very familiar with mental health workers.

    thats because usyk isnt an economy unto himself, should he become undisputed hw, he will be no different. thats also why canelo took a pay cut and weigh in disadvantage against floyd. lets not kid ourselves.

    I think it had far more to do with the force of Canelo's punch combo than with Kov;''s stamina since KOv was moving around very well prior to that combination lading. The same claim is made about Josh. That he just got tired against Ruiz
    The present political situation in the USA isn't in favor of having Latinos succeed in sports or any other endeavor because that goes against Trump's declarations about Latino Immigrants. So admitting that Canelo won legitimately might be viewed as being unpatriotic.
