    I didn't say they were exactly the same as white people only we're directly related to them and come from the same genetic family.

    The evolution of our Y-Chromosome family tree goes like this our ancestors from Arabia were F, they evolved to K in Persia/Caucasus, K evolved to Q in the Urals and there was a split the Q half went further East into Asia and some went West eventually evolving into R and mixing with I and J which branched off earlier and evolved differently from the F in Arabia.

    GGG IS impressive.

    But people get annoyed when other people say that he'd clean up Hagler, Monzon etc when he hasn't really been tested against a truly elite opponent. And I can understand that point of view as well.

    I don't dislike him at all. I just think he is completely overhyped. Don't message me hating that, I said overHYPED, not overrated. Skill wise he is all that and a bag of chips, he just hasn't had "that" opponent, and top notch resume yet. Decent opponents, don't get me wrong. But at 33 years old he doesn't have all that much time. Hyping the way people are especially when there are others, who I believe are even more skilled and younger, who already have better resumes. Roman Gonzalez, Terence Crawford, Vasyl Lomachencko. If people hyped one of those 3 the way they do GGG, i'd be all about that. lol

    I don't dislike him per se. I dislike the hype for him as it is unwarranted. I dislike the fact he's portrayed as a great boxer when all he is at the moment is a hype boy. I dislike his decision making because he puts Cherry Garcia to shame in terms of his cherry picking. Nearly 34 and not one credible name on his resume.

    I don't dislike GGG as a fighter and man, I do however dislike his fans and team in general. Any fighter that gets too much support and publicity despite having a terrible resume with literally zero names worth mentioning isn't exactly worth the publicity. The only reason he's getting all the attention is because of his fan friendly style.

    If the talent at 168 was at 160, and GGG came out on top, you could legitimately say he's been tried and tested. 160 is pretty weak. A WW, less than 10 fights removed, is the boss right now for focks sake. [emoji2]

    GGG's rabid fans are annoying. Many of them just jumped off the Pacwagon. All they talk about is punching power and put down boxing and moving...and "Mexican Style" "Big Show". But, as soon as GGG gets in there with a big puncher and boxes and moves, you would think he invented the sweet science, the way they praise him for it. It's ridiculous. What's sad, as soon as he gets in there with someone and gets a boxing lesson, they will be hyping the next Eastern European.

    I actually think he's a very good fighter. But, it's not because of who he's beaten or because he tests himself. It's mostly just by the eye test. At the moment, he's overhyped though. The talks of ATG should cease.

    The exact same could be said of Mike Tyson. ONe of the most overhyped fighters possibly ever... but take a second and think about what he did for the sport. He brought in a ton of casuals and single handedly revived the HW division.

    Boxing fans need to grow the f**k up and not let hype make them into little whiney haters.
