They definitely fukk with him, but I saw it moreso when he retired though. I know a Jamaican cat who helped build his house in Jamaica and he said dude is chill as fukk. Also said he's strong as hell too and was able to carry certain things easily that they were struggling with. nikka said his fist is big as fukk too, like a damn catcher's mitt.

Walters gets a lil love too, but he's not promoted right or fights enough to increase it.
Something you gotta remember about Jamaican sportsman, is that even though Jamaican culture has such a massive global reach, we're actually a tiny island with a population less than 3 million. No one in any field of sports or entertainment is going to become a superstar just with Jamaican support/fame. There ain't that many of us :manny: Lennox had the support of the whole island and diaspora from the mid-90's on when he really started leaning into his roots, but we ain't much

Of course.

I still feel that Walters could be bigger tho. Only hardcore boxing fans and nikkas who are actually living in Jamaica know about him. There's a big island population down in South Florida that is being overlooked by boxing promoters. So far Lara is the only one to recently try to build upon that. I know Cassamayor fought down here before as well. nikkas like Walters and Gamboa should be having at least 1 fight a year down here. Same thing with Thurman.

You start putting up Walters posters up in Dutch pot and all the lil restaurants and nikkas will come out to a fight down here. Jamaican's be super supportive. After that everyone else will catch on.

I don't know why we never got Junior Jones vs Kevin Kelley. That would have been a hell of a fight

When it came to boxing, I use to watch everything moving. As a busy adult, you have to get on my radar. This will be my first Anthony Joshua fight. He better be that nygga, because the way they are slurping on this guy is disgusting.

Also, the nygga has two first names man. I just don't know man.
