    Who is more famous, Gato Figueroa or Timothy Bradley?

    In America, who is the more popular fighter? Youd think Bradley is cos hes the champ but he's largely unknown in America. I think winning the title in England instead of America had something to do with that.

    Neither is famous but Bradley is the more popular fighter. Although Gato is very well known on the east coast.

      Its funny cos Bradley is a champ and Gato is just a contender who hasnt fought on HBO or Showtime yet he probably has a bigger following.

          .....and the notion that most boxing fans did not favor Bradley to win

            Well he doesn't have a bigger following. He's got somewhat of a following on the east coast but Bradley is a bigger name easily.

                  Can you blame them? He wasnt being profiled on TV much.
