I think the problem here is that Yanks don't understand our sense of humour.
They probably think that we hold Williams in high regard..

How is Carl Froch a hype job? he has just beaten Jean Pascal(current light hevayweight champ) and Jermain Taylor, and I doubt he is even a mainstream name in Britain yet. you see it doesnt matter if a brittish fighter keeps on winning and beating good oppossistion he is still a hypejob. if anything froch nexts opponent andre dirrell is a hype job, who has andre dirrell ever beaten?
Tyson Fury is not hyped by anybody except his promotor, your having a laugh if you think anybody knows Fury in britain except boxing fans. and still though he is undeafeated and is atleast fighting alot better opponents than Deontay Wilder is.
the only real hypejob in there is Amir Khan
i doubt people who didnt follow boxing gave a **** about enzo maccarinelli for example.
joe calzaghe retired undefeated. not a hypejob.
herol graham i think is just a random name you bring up, the only reason because he got brutally knocked out by jackson is why you call him a hypejob. i seriously doubt you have any clue about whetever he was hyped or not in britain in that time.Comment

neither are all these brittish guys, just because theyre on tv doesnt mean theyre hyped. explain to me how Kell Brook is a hypejob for example? has he lost? NO, has he been exposed? NO, does he have a weak chin? NO, is he famous in britain? NO, is he hyped in britain? NO.Comment

Anyone who seriously considers Hamed, Hatton and Calzaghe Hypejobs needs to stop posting about Boxing on general principle.
In fact the only Hypejob on that list is khan, seriously who the fcuk ever hyped Bruno or Macarinelli? Bruno was popular because he was that funny dumb bloke who kept fighting above his level, no one ever rated anything of Bruno's other than his right hand.Comment

just look at the scoreboard brits. end of.
who is the best american fighter right now or for the last 5-10 years?
Oscar, Mr.Counterfeit Cash, & mosley.
Oscar is the exception here b/c his fights are always hyped up.
Mosley is a hall of famer & he can barely sell 3,000 seats in his own backyard. He has never been a A-side, & he's a 1st ballot hall of famer!
Mr.counterfeit cash, his overall greatness is hyped up IMO, but he cant sell without a big name. He couldnt sellout in Michigan.
Now you brits want to say we hype up jeff lacy? andre dirrell? majority of americans havent even heard of those guys.
How can we hype up our young upcoming fighters when our proven fighters goint to the hall of fame cant even get mainstream media attention in the U.S.?
Look at winky wright. long time solid proffessional i dont think he's hit mainstream yet.
But look at britain. Amir khan headlining in PPVs already? Ricky Hatton with that ugly ass boxing style pulling 50k fans to see him fight lazcano?
Majority of Americans could care less about boxing. Here's boxing in the totem pole in american mainstream media & fans;
NFL
NBA
college football
MLB
college basketball
Golf
Tennis
Nascar
Boxing
MMA
College Baseball
How can we hype andre dirrell? andre ward? Americans dont even care.
The brits on the other hand........Comment
