    From what I have seen, they are mostly bunch of thugs with no manners. Nothing to be very proud of.

    Will always get a stupid bunch in a minority. Ricky hatton took 30,000 Brits over to Vegas. If floyd all any other American were to go the uk they would not take 300 and the ones they would take would be on the payroll. Brit and Mexican fans are the most passionate when it comes to boxing. Yanks are 3rd world.

    Yeah you can call it "banter" but if a few thousand foreigners did that in an British venue they'd be bloodshed, and you know it.

    Yanks have glass hearts and chins, that's their problem.

    No there wouldn't be. They'd just boo louder. Stop being so ignorant. Imagine you said what you had just said about Africans.

    Fact is: No Brit has ever been p4p #1 in the sport of boxing since it was established

    America: RJJ/Hopkins/Mayweather, Jr/Pernell/Hagler/etc etc
    Philippines: Pacquiao
    Mexico: Chavez Sr
    Britain: Closest #2-3 Calzaghe

    Not making this a race thing, just stating the obvious.

    I love the British people. Good people and they really know how to support a team/player. Maybe I'm biased, as my Uncle via marriage is British, and therefore, my cousins are of English descent.

    Either way, nothing but love for the Brits from this "Yank."

    Just stating fact. You Brits love to make fun of Americans, but you don't realize that America dominates boxing. Always have, always will. :lol::yep

    You're comparing a country with a population of over 300 million to a country with a population of under 64 million. When you have a larger pool of people to draw talent from, the odds of you finding a great athlete increase.

    Hence why you'll find in the United States, larger municipalities will generally have the more dominant youth sport teams. They just have a larger pool of kids to choose from to locate talent.


    The British have their own success in boxing and their own reasons to be prideful for their fighters and champions. I don't think it's necessary to get into nationalistic nonsense, as I'm a fan of boxers regardless of their country of origin.

    The Ring Magazine is biased as hell. It is owned by an American Olympic Gold medal champion ffs. It is the biggest piece of trash magazine that ive ever seen in me life.

    Tyson Fury would smash both Floyd and Manny together at the same time. So wtf should I claim that Floyd is a better fighter? I refuse to do it. Pfp list are rubbish ment to favour little b@s****s to be honest
