    What does that comment have to do with this comment...?

    "no they're too busy hyping up the likes of Devon Alexander while he gets his ass whipped by unknown "regional" Ukranian and Argentinian fighters"


    P.S. Alexander isn't well known in the US

    I think beating a Klitschko would give them notoriety here...but both are incapable. so you're right.

    Most of America just doesn't give a **** about boxing in general. Alexander is no longer hyped up.

    It's called HYPE. What do you think helped keep Tyson the top draw in the game YEARS after his skills had declined?

    This is good for boxing, make no mistake about it. Helps keep it in the public eye.

    ANY publicity is better than NO publicity! Fact.

    well then isnt it an achievement that two "regional" fighters from the other side of the world made the local boston news? its more than any american fighters are doing. wtf is it with this nationality ****, we are all boxing fans, boxing on the news is a good thing, even if its one loudmouth beating down another at a press conference

    i don't think it's a big achievement for them to be known for getting in a stupid brawl. I don't look at that as an achievement whatsoever.

    Yes because nobody ever became world famous from being involved in controversy...

    Did you not just bring up Ward? That was years ago. Boxing use to be huge in Boston but is no longer releveant. It's even less relevant in America overall.
