    So most of us see a lot of undefeated fighters from other countries come to the United States and challenge a belt holder. I would say about 95% of the time the undefeated fighter loses and never hear from them again. What do you think drives the undefeated fighters to come and throw away their career over 1 fight. I get they might make some pretty good money but its for only ONE FIGHT. After that never heard from again. Instead of coming to America and building their career and possibly a couple big paydays they settle for one fight, why? For example Spence vs Ocampo in a couple weeks. Why?

    Undefeated against whom? That is the question! Too many mismatches...................those fighters are supposed to lose....................even if they win, the judges will not give them the decision, that's how it works...........

    It must be about money.
    In many cases these guys are undefeated because they didn't face anyone of note, or are actually good and still fight knowing they most likely get robbed if they are better but don't knock the murrican out.

    Mostly it is because the home fighters know they aren't the best opponents despite their records. Often not even the best in their country.

    But the same thing goes for an undefeated boxer visiting the UK, Germany and Russia... you either knock him out, dominate or leave with a loss.
