      I support exciting/talented fighters regardless of where they are from. I would LOVE more exciting American fighters, but we don't have many now. Am I supposed to kiss the ass of every American fighter just because of where he is born? Sorry, I can think for myself. Anyone who loves a fighter because he was born in the same place/is the same race ect, is a sad individual.

        The way I see it is America has shown dominance in the history of the sport, so why not be prideful and support American prizefighters. Our ONE State of Michigan has produced more ATG/HOF nigg@s than the rosters of ENTIRE NATIONS.

          It bothers me that American can be so welcoming to so many people, from all different walks of life but get ****ted on constantly. It also bothers me that people can sit here and talk constant **** about American boxing history being overrated that Russians couldn't box or Americans fighters are spoiled. It bothers me that Mexicans keep waving their flags about how many champions they have but no one could give a **** about their champions at 105lbs or the fact that they are simply fighting other sickly looking "men" for titles.

            Now you're sounding like the typical ignorant American who doesn't know **** about other cultures around the globe.

                  Going To Brutally Honest....

                  Boxing Is Not Even A FACTOR IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW....Unless your name is Mayweather or Pacquiao

                  other then that, America don't give a **** about boxing, to be honest, IN AMERICA, boxing is already behind the UFC!

                  People hate to admit it but it is TRUE! America has never really gotten behind ONE FIGHTER COLLECTIVELY! Ali was hated much worse then Mayweather is now, Ray Leonard was love by the Media but a lot of people did not like him

                  Oscar OWN PEOPLE use to hate on him, they use to say "HE WASN'T MEXICAN ENOUGH" plus many feel he took advantage of a OLD CHAVEZ

                  Mike Tyson had a lot of the fans but the Media use to BASH THE GUY and always talked about the NEGATIVE STUFF about Tyson

                  in America, It might be best to be the "HATED GUY" like Ali and Mayweather, instead of trying to win people over with Charisma and Charm because fans in America are just not loyal and they are BANDWAGON JUMPERS and very FICKLE MINDED!

                  I am American of course but I just call it like I see it! America jump from Bandwagon to Bandwagon when it comes to sports and it has always been like that and will continue to be like that, in America everything is just Black and White: "One Or The Other" "Rich or Poor" "Loved or Hated", there is no IN BETWEEN

                    It's possibly because the champions come from the ********** who are traditionally anti-establishment. Imo if there was a white champion, white America would be very nationalistic in backing him against Russian and Brit fighters etc.
