    a couple of obvious ones...

    Pongsaklek Wonjongkam
    Wanheng Meenayothin
    Petchmanee CP Freshmart
    Knockout CP Freshmart
    Masataka Taniguchi

    can you imagine how long the list would be if you asked the question "who never fought outside of the States"?

    Bro why are you so mad that American boxers don’t fight outside the US? The US is the Mecca of boxing period, it’s the place where the biggest and best fights are made.

    Monzon is one of the biggest names who never campaigned in the US.

    He had one fight in the US at MSG vs Licata but that was it.

    Can pretty much guarantee AJ will never fight there again.

    Maybe because it's clearly unfair, and most of those fights could have been made somewhere else with as just much coverage and revenue?

    Unfairness happens everywhere. It's been proven in boxing its inception.
