The Truth About Why So Many Americans Hate The Klitschko's...

...and claim so and so from the past would have beaten them, is because (outside of the numerous racists on this message board) they are fully aware that most of their favorite heavyweights from times past would have been utterly destroyed by these giant Ukrainians and it infuriates them to no end. They say the reason that these Russians are dominating is because all the great "American" athletes are in the NFL and NBA, forgetting the fact that until the early 90's, the Russians couldn't participate in the sport of boxing. Low and behold, the Berlin Wall goes down all it takes is 10 years before the Russians take over. The NFL and NBA was just as big in the 80's and 90's and they had great heavyweights according to Americans, but once the Russians take over, all great American heavyweights disappear?

Have you noticed an influx of European basketball players in recent years? Expect that trend to continue, then all we will hear is that all the great American athletes are working as lawyers and doctors now, lol.

There is some truth in your post. It's disgusting the way many Americans play down the Klitschko's abilities. They are completely dominant and exceptionally gifted physically and mentally.

Maybe if Wlad ****d someone, spent all his career money on Bengal tigers and bit someone's ear off he'd be 'a legend' and 'one of the greatest'?

It's quite embarrassing for a 6'6'' 240 man to have a glass chin isn't it?

The words "legendary" and "Klitschko", couldn't be further apart.

There's a key element that you are forgetting there. Notice, many of the Sam Peter fans are now David Haye fans.

Yes, I'm sure Lennox was quite embarrassed about it.

Sure there are, they are just laying low for the time being since Haye's cowardice can't be denied at present.

Th Klitshkos are good but they're boring. Most of their fights are snoozefests.

Thank you for furthering the "suspect chin" myth. That way opponents will be fooled into trying to reach that chin instead of trying new strategies (e.g. going to the body). You are doing Klitschko a favour.

You tell them.
