    Jay-Z: "You made it a hot line. I made it a hot song"

    I watched Lennox and some "football" games and that didnt stick out til I saw Hatton. The only point of view I can have is how effective it was stateside. Pull that skirt down your ruffle drawls is showin.
    Painful ignorance....ugh arsed.

      he just doesn't have that it factor.
      Khan has a personality?

          of the 3, khan perhaps is the most manufactured, but haye and hatton have mad charisma.

          you can't just force froch down people's throat and hope they'll take to him... it's the same thing berto is going through now in the USA... HBO put a lot of money to push berto, but berto can't sell 500 tickets to any of his fights.

          you can't manufacture a boxing superstar like america idol or whatever the equivalent is in the UK. that's not how boxing works.
          American Idol is the spawn of a British show...

            okay... khan is more followed because of his boxing pedigree than his personality

              The point is about overlooked domestic star potential (Froch), not taking some random bummy guy (you) off the street and putting him in a reality TV show. Goodness.




              The British citizens here all seem to think Froch would have crossed over by now if a force like Sky had their finger on the pulse and picked him up at the start of his reign.

              The 2 dissenting Americans, who 1. don't live here and 2. seem unlearned about what makes UK sports culture tick, think Froch would've been a flop.

                yep, and no amount of exposure will make froch more endearing...

                froch just gotta do it the old fashion way, just keep winning in the ring.

                  never said froch would be a flop.

                  but froch ain't gonna get as big as haye, hatton or khan no matter how much backing from sky he gets.

                  you think sky manufactured the careers of hatton, haye and khan? c'mon man.
