Ha ha ha yeah I remember that... Does it really matter to you all though ? I know the US is going through a bit of a crisis of self at the moment but boxing is about one man against another , nationality is irrelevant. Whynot just hope for an exciting fighter ? I dont look up to Ali less becasue he was from Louiseville instead of Glasgow Joe Frazier is still my all time hero even though he is from Philly and not London I'm a dedicated Pac-man fan but he's from General Santos City not Manchester Of all the sports there are surely boxing is the one where who you are is all important and where you come from means **** all ?
He beat Ruiz convincingly, as well as Holyfield and Rahman ... got robed with Peter ... just bad luck.
He cheated his way to the win against Ruiz, so he never really won the belt. Holyfield wasn't the champion when they fought, neither were Peter. Rahman was the paper champ when they first fought and Toney couldn't even beat him.
If would be nice to have ANY heavyweight champ, but there hasn't been one for half a decade now, and there probably won't be one at all until one of the Klitschkos retires.
Usa wont have a champ for a good 6 years. David haye will own all titles in th coming years britain !!!!!
