    Pacman Vs Bradley arguably worse than all of them.

    Feel bad for the Brits. Every time of their fighters goes on a winning streak an American shows up to slap them down again.

    Most countries have had poor judging, it is probably a disadvantage for any fighter to go to another's back yard.

    I think Broner would most likely beat Burns, but it would be an interesting fight and one I'd like to see. I think Broner should take this fight before moving to 140 to establish himself as the best at 135, he is still young plenty of time to move to 140 next year. A fight against Burns would be good experience for Broner too, who is still relatively untested and tougher challenges lie ahead in 140

    All bull**** aside it is a shame more Americans dont come over here.Even the most nationalistic yank has gotta admit the atmosphere at our fights is amazing, there's plenty of cash to be made an there are plenty of worse places for robberies. Floyd used to bang on about wanting to come over all the time.

    What Americans have even been robbed over here? Serious question, I'm scratching my head. You are far more likely to get robbed if you are Scottish and trying to box in Liverpool.

    They'd say Dirrell but it depends if you like your fighters to either hold or leg it all night.

    Cant think of any others off the top of my head.

    Lets face it, Burns ain't travelling, unless Broner's people can entice him with a big offer.
    Burns is the number1 LW, has SKY money behind him and can pack out a 10k arena no worries, he isn't travelling.

    I thought Dirrel-Froch was extremely close and i wouldn't expect anyone to win in someone elses backyard with a performance like that.

    Precisely. A prime example of the challenger not doing enough to WIN the belt. He behaved like a ****.

    Still scratching my head for examples.Dont recall Eubank fighting yanks here when he went through that run of iffy decisikns, they were all abroad werent they ?

    He'd crush Burns if Burns came to fight.
