How Does One Get Venerated, But The Other Gets Treated With Such Distain??

I think the answer is a simple one.

In the United States you can dislike Floyd Mayweather because you have Jermaine Taylor, Bernard Hopkins, Roy Jones Jr, James Toney, Winky Wright, Shane Mosley, to be a fan off. If all our hopes rested on Mayweather we wouldn't say a bad word about him.


In the UK you either like Joe Calzaghe, Ricky Hatton or a one of several lesser known fighters.

How condescending and totally unAmerican of you.

too funny...
