Why is it?

[splittingatoms]

the reson why is becuase we, the fans, are in desperate need of a heavyweight champion that's entertaining, fights hard, wins big, and is an American. Klitschko, by no fault of his own of course, only meets 3 of those 4 standards....I'm not trying to make another race argument, but the fact of the matter is that the championship is contested in the US about 90% of the time, so the American fans want to root for a yankee (Tyson, Holyfield) vs. a foreigner (Lewis, Klitschko).....

SOOOO every time an American heavyweight wins big, everybody's gonna say that he can KO the foreign title-holder because of desperate, wishful thinking

on that note, I don't think Lamon can hang with Vitali, and last night didn't prove anything other than Golota is a hopeless, underacheiving loser, so I hesitate to proclaim Brewster as the savior

actually i think a ****load of american root for vit.america has been looking for a white HW champ for along time.a that is why vit fanbase is so high.i dont hate vit but his fans put up with great fighters which by no means is vit a great fighter.he is an average fighter in the weakest time of the HW.
