I have noticed recently that on this website many Americans being increasingly hostile towards fighter's of different nations (more so than usual). Without mentioning any names it seems even the more knowledgeable are resorting to childish name-calling in an attempt to discredit fighter's from outside of their boarders.
I can't help but notice all of this occurring at a time when American boxing is on a decline. Many of it's biggest stars will be retired in a few years and one of their future hopefulls was exposed as being nothing special the other night (albeit by a fellow countryman).
America will always produce good boxers, but are many Americans growing hostile as they are not used to the prospect of having so little?, Is the realization that boxing is becoming more and more of an international sport a bitter pill for many to swallow? I realize that everything goes in cycles and one day American boxing may once again become the superpower it once was, but are many feeling uneasy about a potential void? I feel i may be asking the wrong people here but i'd be interested to hear it from the horses mouth so to speak.
