    The Klitschko's are great, some people hate winners. A lot of people tune in to Floyd's fights just to see him lose, cuz some people hate winners. They relate more to someone who loses frequently cuz it makes them feel less inadequate about their shitty lives.

    They are great fighters but their fights are borderline unwatchable.

    Klitschkos are bums, if they were fighting in my back garden i'd shut the curtains.

    They should be on PYTV, pay you to view cause nobody bar some eurotrash wants to watch them unless forced.

    The younger one is getting more love... He has been on TMZ a couple of times in the past month. It is because he is dating that hot blonde chick from "Heros" and "Nashville".

    Apparently, it helps to bang one of the hottest chicks around.

    Same reason sports fans hate the NY Yankees or Los Angeles Lakers. They win too much for too long :smoke

    They only hate if you're great. Fans don't boo nobodies :nono

    I think it is because they just look so much bigger than their opponents. Its like a reverse David and Goliath- people naturally want the little guy to win.

    Wladdy actually has a very, very good record at this point, and anyone who does not realize that is just batty. But of those big names, how many of them are 6'5" high quality punchers?

    Not one really. Maybe Jameel Mcline. Haye at almost 6'4" would be the next guy on the list, and he used to be a crusier. Wach...but then again, he ain't that good.

    You hear a lot of Brits say they wish Frank Bruno was around to fight Wladdy. Ruddock often gets mentioned. I would throw in Ron Lyle or Bonecrusher Smith. They wouldn't even have to be Lewis-Bowe type names...just a couple of victories over big guys who can bring the pain.

    Because they are dominating boxing. And are white.

    You mean like Rocky Marciano? So by your logic I suppose that fellow was also hated for being a white heavyweight champ? huh?
