    i remember winky wright being totally unfazed by a few thousand fanatical steve foster salfordians in manchester in the late 90's. my first viewing of winky and he's remained a favourite of mine.
    kostya tszyu-hatton is the bigegst most recent example, the crowd were baying for blood that night

    Different though dude. Andrade HAD to go. He was not a "popular respected champion". He went to Canada for glory, but did not have to go.

    Many fight abraod of course, but few popular champions that dont have to, do anyway.

    Haye wasn't a champion when he fought Mormeck, he was the number 1 contender. Big props to him though that was an awesome performance.

    cunningham and johnson have to fight on the road a lot as they would earn a fraction of the ammount they get fighting at home.

    Glen Johnson's lived in Florida since he was 15, and his entire boxing life has been based there.

    Cunningham was not champion for either match against Wlodarczyk. And Huck was a mandatory defence for which Don King lost the purse bid, so that was why that ended up in Germany.

    Kessler is the best example that has been given so far.

    almost felt sorry for him by the end of that, thousands of people cheering every blow to his head and body while he struggled to even lock onto who was messing him up.
    almost.
