Are you guys surprised by Omar Henry's popularity?

Andre Ward: Olympic gold medalist, undefeated, super six winner, super middleweight champion, resume with BIG names, and doesn't even have 20 thousand followers.

What is the trick?

Ok, what about Nonito Donaire? Top P4P with ridiculous KO power and skill, and not a dull personality either, with 25K followers.

Exactly.

So you have to be a certain wweight to be popular? I am PRETTY sure 90% of Henry's twitter followers haven't seen him fight, meaning, they have no idea what weight he fights at.

Some people can really attract other people. It's a gift.

He knows how to market himself. He probably also has some charisma. But that picks looks like he met ***** like most people that meet ***** meet him, at a campaign stop.

I know you're probably thinking he's not popular but this guy is all over the place. Just a week ago, he met *****. Freaking *****. Not just everyone gets to meet *****. Also, he has almost 90 thousand followers on twitter. That's way more than some of the top dogs in the sport who have done much more in the sport than him. Plus, he was associated with the Lohans and ****.

Dude is known more for his twitter posts than his boxing.......not a good thing

[KingTito]

He must know people or something. He certainly hasn't done much in boxing. I've wondered this before myself. I'm not surprised. I just don't think he deserves recognition more than fighters who have actually accomplished ****.

Dude loves attention.But he is fun to watch.

He has the right kind of personality. Look at the biggest draws throughout boxing history, most of them didn't have the most exciting styles during their eras. It was the guys with personality that attracted the public.
