    Yet GGG a Kazakh of all things is known by Millions in a country that usually hates rooting for foreign fighters, that's the epitome of crossover appeal, I wonder if Millions will be clamoring to see Errol Spence Jr. in Kazakhstan in a few years.:think

    I know he's pretty close to the dictatorship, which sort of goes against his 'nice guy' image.

    Millions would turn out to see any brother in Kazakhstan if he walked around in the mall.

    This is what I suspect, as well as for Kovalev since they haven't thrown their own people a bone, not fighting over there in long time if ever. Hell name the network that shows his fights in Kazakhstan. What network over there even shows his fights.

    Kazakhstan is on the rise in the global economy, but you knuckleheads wouldn't know anything about that.

    Kazakhstan is not a poor country. They have a higher GDP (PPP) per capita than Mexico or Argentina.
