    Yeah he has fought some good names - but he hasn't beaten any of them.
    A guy with 9 losses who's never won a title should not be headlining - that's just a fact. Chief support - OK that makes sense.

      He guarantees excitement against somebody who will go toe to toe with him, like Whyte and Takam, but tends to lose interest quickly and stink the joint out against boxers like Parker.

        The point I was making is that Henry never was. He was a decent European operator like Del.

        Generally we just like the bigger men. By we I mean the overall British sporting culture.

        Just musing. But is Del Boy more popular than say Kell Brook even?

        Kell Brook is definitely a better fighter.
        True, but he dropped Ali like a sack of spuds with one of the best left hooks ever thrown, and came very close to beating him before getting stopped with eye damage.

        And the bigger Ali became after that, the more the British fans loved their 'enry! He was also a good talker and a real sporting gentleman, at a time when that meant something in the UK.
