Road Warriors: Boxers who won a world title fighting in their opponent's home country

[Luilun]

I have plenty of respect for courageous road warriors who win or defend a world title fighting in their opponent's home country.

Sergey Kovalev (the WBO from Cleverly in the UK, then the IBF and WBA from Hopkins in the USA)

James DeGale (IBF in the USA against the American boxer, Dirrell)

Terence Crawford (in the UK against the British boxer Burns)

Kell Brook (in the USA against Porter)


Who are some of the others?

I want to add Madaina cause he kicked Floyds A$$ and should be on there

[Ringlife]

Bradley vs Witter in the UK.

Salido vs JuanMa.

Segura vs Calderon.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

How about G. Rigo

[Mooshashi]

Ali in Zimbabwe.

[Box-Office]

Manny Pacquiao in Thailand against Sasakul for the WBC Flyweight title.

Tim Bradley: beat Junior Witter for his WBC Light-Welterweight title.


Andriy Kotelnik: Went to UK and beat Gavin Rees for WBA Lightwelterweight title.


I'm only mentioning those, where guys were prospects going to fight for their first World title.
