has there EVER been a time where the heavyweight champ was not shown in the US?

but peter mcneely got airtime with tyson man.on ppv at that

Fighters need personality to draw interest. Just winning isn't enough. That's why people couldn't wait for someone to unseat Larry Holmes.

You already know how Wlad and Vitali fights will go. Jab..jab..overhand...jab..jab...overhand.

That's why I think Adrien Broner got a chance to do great things in the sport.

Americans got to pretend they were superior HW fighters back when the Soviet Union existed. Just like they have a "World Series" in baseball with only one country participating.

Now that the Euroman has taken over the heavyweight division, it spoiled the fantasy of Yank heavyweight omnipotence, so like typical poor sport Americans they took their boxing gloves and went home.

You know what the best Soviet Heavyweights were doing before the fall of the Iron Curtain? Oh that's right! They were getting KTFO by Americans in the Olympics :hahahaha9:

It's being shown on EPIX in the US.

The channel isn't available on all cable outlets, but they're trying I guess

they have some fans here man...id watch them on free HBO

[LA_2_Vegas]

it's unfortunate because HBO showed so many fights of Wlad's fight on his way up it seems like they'd bring him back once in a while regardless of the opponent, just to showcase the title

Sadly if Thompson was to pull off a Upset...STILL NOBODY WOULD CARE ABOUT THE HEAVYWEIGHT DIVISION IN THE US

but a lot of American Boxing Fans are excited about Haye vs Chisora...not the Casual American Fans though

****, that fight wont even be either. This is bull****, Wlad use to be on HBO all the time. Wlad has 50 knockouts!

[StarshipTrooper]

America is a degenerate ****hole of a country in irrevocable decline, and its current heavyweights just mirror that fact.
