    With K2 obviously trying to build GGG up as a star in the US, why are they trying to cater specifically for a Mexican audience? Floyd Mayweather left Top Rank and promoted himself in a way to appeal to the African-American community and look at the money he is making from it? Why isn't Tom trying to do the same with GGG? :huh

    I guess I could ask the same about Krusher. Why hasn't he been able to capitalise on the African-American audience after Duva landed him the Hopkins fight in which he KRUSHED the **** out of Hopkins? The Mexicans are loving GGG!

    There's a reason Floyd fought mostly Mexican/Hispanic fighters, they have a huge boxing following.

    The "Mexican Style" idea is pretty damn smart. There's not only trying to appeal to the Mexican audience, but at the same time they stroke the Mexican audiences ego.
    That can be because as we know Mexican style is exciting, come forward style boxing and much macho. If need be taking a punch to land a harder one of your own.

    Now it's something else to come up with to the African American audience who's current housstyle is defensive/slick. Not very ego stroking, so useless to come up with a "Murrican Style" kinda thing, and we know that audience is very dismissive of foreign fighters as well.

    So Golovkin should try to appeal to African Americans and make everyone else hate him? :lol:

    Mexican style? That's racist! :admin

    what kind of dumb question is this even? did you forget how floyd has tried to cather to the MExican audience for his entire career? Even making a clown of himself wearing Mexican flags and sombreros?

    Start following boxing before asking questions about things you don't know.

    Also there's that small detail about Golovkin fighting truly more Mexican-styled than many other native Mexicans. He even looks like one. And has an hyspanic trainer.

    You think GGG is racist? His words, not mine. Quotations were an indication of that. :hi::patsch

    Also you're talking absolute *******s as usual. The majority of boxing icons loved worldwide have been African American. Stop pushing your agenda like you do every time you post here.
