    For those saying Whitaker, most of the Mexicans are still butt hurt from the Chavez fight.. But my choice would be Ricardo Lopez.. and perhaps Roberto Duran.

    Froch - A bit, but he faces the best and doesn't duck he just honestly pays the price for being honest, and that's what you should endore and not hate on!
    Kessler - A true Gentleman and a huge blessing for the sport, not afraid of anyone and always are in good fights!
    Cotto - He reminds me of Kessler
    Klitschko - Only brittards and f*cking yanks hates on him, also a true blessing to the sport.
    Martinez - He's been trashtalking Chavez Jr. and he really did back it up to shut his critics up. But a very homble boxer & human. Also seems like he doesn't duck anybody.

    ^^ All these i mentioned are good for boxing and we need more of these kinds, instead of the likes of Mayweather, Pacman and all the other pussies

    Most Americans love him (Wlad was being referred to, not both of them.) Only the nostalgists among the press and those who long for an American heavyweight champ hate him.

    I'm American and most people I come across generally don't care for him or know who he is.

    Boxing fans. Boxing has become a niche sport, so I obviously wasn't referring to the general populace of the US.
