    Do you not understand how ridiculously irrational and bigoted that makes you? I don’t root against a US fighter if they have their flag somewhere when US have invaded and killed citizens somewhere. The people at home in Russia and the US have nothing to do with war crimes. I understanding not liking imperialist, nationalist and patriotic idiocy. When you have US and Russia you have to understand that the citizens are fed constant propaganda and have no idea what is happening overseas in the name of their nation. You realise that the US is viewed how you view Russia now in most places around the world? One of those is also a lot more powerful than the other.

    The US is seen favourably by a large chunk of the world, especially those who are not involved in a geopolitical rivalry with it.

    Exactly, those who aren’t in a geopolitical rivalry with it - very few. US exceptionalism has people totally blind to the rest of the world. Japan of all places views US favourably (perhaps the firebombings that killed 100000 and the nuclear bombs that killed 200000 somehow put respect into them), then you have the UK that tolerates them, and Australia by necessity because of the strategic position against China.

    Europe is controlled by the US so they have to appear to publicly tolerate them. Anybody with any interest in history or geopolitical conflicts understands the imperialist empire of the US and the constant war crimes by US-NATO in Kosovo, Libya, Serbia etc. Not to mention all the wars they’ve funded with the military-industrial complex in order to secure targets of interest and natural resources. Spreading peace by arming nations to go up against their enemy. It’s understood, but it can’t be stopped. Nobody thinks well of the global bully.

    :lol: Spew more garbage, bozo.

    The intervention in Bosnia was mandated by the UN. Libya was stupid but you cannot use it to show how America is hated. A majority of Gulf countries backed action.

    I just said that because CST was choosing Bivol lol now if he would have won that would have moved him to #1

    Why would CST picking someone affect you picking someone else.

    I haven't noticed and I don't think he did when you picked Canelo neither.

    I dunno, maybe. I disagree with posters about things all the time, it doesn't necessarily stick in my memory though, I've had thousands of interactions on this site about boxing.

    In this thread though, you picked Canelo cos you thought he'd win, same as me.

    I was completely on Canelo's side here. Now he's done. I don't think he's as great as some folk do, but at least he fought a lot and tried to fight some guys that could beat him.

    Canelo made a horrendous mistake fighting Bivol. Dmitry beat the bejabbers out of the Ginger Fraud made him look foolish even. Even his tame Vegas judges & the State Commission didn't have the gall to gift him another "win" or even a "draw" Canelo deservedly got his ass whipped big time. They did gift him with a close losing decision which was laughable. That was a beat down. Dimitry took Canelo's soul he really thought his protection services would see him alright, but it seems even Vegas Judges & the NSAC have limits too lol . C'mon Canelo be a MAN & defend your trinkets @168 against Benavidez if your claim " Bivol was too big for me " wasn't so lame. Bivol weighed in just FOUR onces heavier than Ginger. Either MAN UP or retire balls in Canelo's court
