    ....when did this trend start? Is their a reason for it? Over the past year or so we have seen a ridiculous amount of american glass hearts from Dirrell, to Mayweather and of course lets not forget stay-at-home mum...sorry stay-at-home boxer Andre Ward! The American glass heart seems to be spreading around african-american boxers like wildfire, will we see a change in 2011?

    The glass heart is an undeniable trait in American boxers.

    I don't remember Floyd or Ward showing any mental weakness in a fight. You start this thread obviously to get some attention.
