    because the american public is not ready to accept Ivan Drago schooling and knocking out Rocky.

    That's getting mad? I think you're being a little dramatic. When THE PRAETORIAN gets mad, nations crumble and would-be warriors cower in fear:-((

    He murdered my boy. I didn't say I still hate him. I tend to like a lot of fighters more after a loss.

    They all probably post over on the C.football sight like Mackkkenzie.

    I do not get mad at them anymore because I feel sorry for them! According to the white people are the most oppressed people on the planet:yep

    If either Bro fought like Tyson they would be ten times as big as Tyson because the are white and it would not matter where they came from.

    If they had a personality that could be sold, they would do better in North America. If they play up the Ivan Drago type of persona, they would be so over by the fans and might my as unpopular as PBF.

    Plan and simple they are not a marketable commodity . . . nice guys and dominate in this **** era (another setback) but they are the david hasselhoffs of boxing.

    Klits aren't as exciting as a Tyson
