Still doesn't change the fact that as a Middleweight, he arguably has the 2nd best resume, is undefeated, and is a Champion. Under those cirumstances, I don't understand the hate for him.
If your reasons to hate on him is his inactivity and lack of top flight comp as Champ (even though he's only been champion for 13 months), then I would hope you also hate the likes of Guillermo Rigondeaux, Gary Russell Jr, Adonis Stevenson, Erislandy Lara, Gilberto Ramirez, and Kell Brook who have been Champions for longer and have gone longer in between top comp than BJS has
My hate for him largely stems from his mouth not cashing checks he promises. If he would shut up and go about his business like most fighters the criticism for him would be far less.
Injured? Okay, fine.
Long layoff? Okay, get a tune up.
Not ready? Go work your quality of opponents up.
Call out Canelo and GGG every time some one puts a mic to your face or your twitter fingers get active, be presented with both fights with good deals and make up excuses.
The original GGG-Brook fight was not offered to Eubanks, it was offered to BJS and he turned down a hometown fight. Blamed the money. Really, you think you are more popular than Brook?
Was offered to fight on Canelo's PPV undercard vs. a hand picked opponent, basically be guaranteed the next fight vs. Canelo on PPV, which would be instead of JCC and turn it down.
And rumors are Jacobs would like to fight him and he backed out of negotiations with him.
Have a case to be the second best MW and your career is going where? In the short term best case scenario is a Eubanks rematch (good luck with those two egos now).
His one piece he does have is GGG is desperate to unify, so no matter how much BJS runs around, ducks, and dodges, GGG will always be open to fighting him.
