    agreed Silencers

    we all like to think that would not be the case and in a perfect world it would'nt be but its commonsene that the chances are they would rather be a big fish in small pond making lots of cash rather than the oposite

    some fans dont want their illusions shattered by reallity but its just the way it is Boxing is more of a business than a sport

          Care to explain that? Khan fights within the region he is the champion of. I don't see why there is a huge problem with that, He should go over there when he fights for a world title, or when he defends it.

              Yeah, boxing is mainly about money nowadays, it just makes sense that fighters would go to where the money is.

                  How the hell does that makes sense,

                  Fighting bums in the USA is somehow acceptable, while fighting bums in the UK isn't. Ummm ok then...

                    the difference is, Euros fight bums in their country, Mexican & Puerto Ricans come to the US and fight for world titles against WORLD RANKED fighters not National.... and we dominate, while you guys come over and get EXPOSED.

                      thats what im saying u can fight cans in America as long as American fight fans have seen your oponent fight before and they are aware of him

                      but if your fighting outta Europe and your oponent comes from Europe he is a can and they are an expert on him allthough they have more the likely never seen him fight

                      Jeff Lacy fought on American soil and apparently he was going to destory Calz because he fought in America and we have seen him fight more than Calzaghe and he is American so he has obviously faced better oposition
