When was the last time any black american boxer had the true support of the entire country? or any american boxer period? The majority of the country just doesnt have it anymore to get behind our boxers like that. There is a reason why nationality and ethnic differences get played up in fights more than anything else these days. being american isnt good enough anymore.
    Joe Louis against Schmelling?

      Dancing with the Stars and Wrestlemania have way more cultural effect than Time.
      Nobody reads Time.

        So sad but true. Time is usually a good read though.

          Time Magazine would be another huge step for Pac and boxing inside the US. Jerry Jones wants Pac to fight in his stadium, the Giants owner in his, etc. and now this. Hopefully, Roach stops talking all this bull**** about only 2 more fights, boxing needs someone that is gonna consistently bring attention by fighting the best and not retiring.

            The thing is that Pacquiao is from Phillppines and Floyd American, and for Floyd to ne the biggest American Draw, and he is overrun by somebody in his own country, is kind sad.

            Pacquiao is a Idol in Phillipines and he came to another country and became a bigger draw than that coutrys biggest draw.

              Last I checked Mayweather and DeLahoya still hold the record for the biggest draw.
              Packy's fight with Diaz barely did 250k.
