    Many fighters in the lighter weights dont get the respect they deserve or star power. Theres no interest because the average guy on the street thinks they could whoop their asses :roll:

    Surley a fighter with "Star power" must be able to get his biggest fights on PPV? Even Khan is seen worthy of PPV revenue....

    None of Joes big fights ever made PPV in th UK - there simply was not seen to be an audience to commercially warrant it.

    julian jackson. that guy had basically everything needed to create star power but for some bizarre reason he didnt do it. he didnt hav the earning power to tempt one of the big boys like hagler or hearns into a major fight
