Not at all robberies are a part of boxing but there is a big reason why so many fighters never liked fighting over seas and the common conclusion was that ..I mean Germany has one hell of a reputation that was cemented long before I responded to this thread ..
To be honest...I think you need a knockout, or a very decisive win to get your hand raised in Germany. But what I mean about going abraod...a lot of boxers are criticised for not taking that step and travelling to America...otherwise they aren't recognised in America. They are seen as overhyped who are afraid to travel, etc. Example...Calzaghe, and by no means am I saying he should be seen as a ATG, but he eventually took that step to America. Imagine if Jones Jr or Hopkins had fought abroad in their primes...you never know would have happened...
RJJ wouldn't fight abroad because of what happened in the Olympics, so i don't blame him. Hopkins would struggle to fight abroad because tht motherfcker doesn't know where anywhere outside the US is located.
