Kazakhstan's own boxing sensation، Daniyar Yeleussinov، recently shared his thoughts on the celebrated boxing world star Gennady Golovkin (GGG) via social media. However، the post quickly ignited a significant debate among the public، splitting opinions before the athlete ultimately removed it from his platform.

Golovkin Hailed as a True Champion

In his now-deleted post، Yeleussinov expressed deep respect for Gennady Golovkin، referring to him as a "true champion." He touched upon a perceived tendency within the Kazakhstani community to sometimes value international stars over their own homegrown talents، attributing this to envy.

"We have had many champions. But not all of them strived to become stars like GGG. The Kazakh people sometimes value representatives of other nations more than stars from among ourselves. This is also due to envy. But GGG is a true champion. I respect him،" Yeleussinov wrote.

Online Backlash and Removal

The boxer's candid remarks، particularly those concerning national sentiment، triggered a strong reaction online. While some users supported Yeleussinov's perspective، a considerable number strongly disagreed with his assessment.

Amidst the growing public criticism، Daniyar Yeleussinov felt compelled to delete the controversial post from his social media accounts.

For context، Daniyar Yeleussinov is the gold medalist of the 2016 Rio Olympics.
