Is there a great white hope out there?

I'm really begining to wonder if there will ever be a true white heavyweight figther. I would love to see it happen so the boxing world could get some excitment. I'm talking about some forgien dude, a true american white heavyweight. I have seen it since Tommy and Cooney, and they both truned into great disater's ! Let me know what yall think about that.

    i personally like wvlad and think he is a great hw champ. probably the best champ out there right now. maybe there are some decent white hw american contenders out there but i would rather have a decent champ (regardless of color or nationality) then half of these paper champs out there ducking other fighters and running their mouths off and fighting with a tap tap and run around the ring for the next 2 minutes. Maybe we will have one someday maybe not,

    I agree with James. Klitschko is by far the best heavyweight in the world. So what if he's not American?
