I don't think winning in the US counts as on the road like other countries. The US just isn't as nationalistic about boxing as other countries because it is a country of immigrants. Italian Americans think they're Italian, Irish Americans think they're Irish, Armenian Americans....

And with so many foreign fighters setting up here for most of their careers we just don't get attached to nationality. If you asked 20 american fight fans to list their top 3 favorite fighters or even top 5 I bet the great majority or nearly all listed would be foreigners like Morales or GGG or Tito or or or. Look at the GGG fight in California, when Ward was mentioned the crowd booed. In Wards home state nationality was irrelevant compared to action. Or look at Floyds home city being overun by Pac and Hatton. We just don't care.
