Check out http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/4613157.stm
I love boxing, I do. Over the years, I've seen many boxers. Some are good, others are great, but only a few are EXCELLENT. The excellent ones include Rocky Marciano, Muhammed Ali, Mike Tyson, Frank Bruno, Lennox Lewis and Naseem Hamed. Ricky Hatton could one day be a boxing legend.
I really do think he has got a bright future, particularly in the United States. The U.S. is the place to be for boxers, if they want their careers to soar. Audley Harrison will become a major player in the future too.
Anyone here like boxing?

The truth is most boxers from the UK are not well recognized and don't become popular like the boxers from Mexico, and USA.

Some UK boxers have become popular but unless they have a major TV deal or go to the United States, there just aren't any opportunities for stardom. Just look at Audley Harrison.
