Peoples Champion Explained

A question i was asked today got me thinking: What is a peoples Champion ?

Peoples Champion is often used here in the UK to describe usually the underdog or against the odds not usually supported by one group of persons but in some cases the entire nation ! , people or persons who the public will always back against either the press or the opposition,
I hope i explained it !!

I did reply to the Question : Freddie Mercury was a true peoples Champion i think the above describes him well.
