    Sorry dude, but 60 million living on a cople of islands off the coast of France doesn't qualify you for being your own continent. Britons are Europeans. Deal.

    I reckon 3-2 Europe. But the American contenders are young so it could easily switch the other way. It's still quite hard to say how good these guys are gonna be.

    Depends on the format. Is this just five individual fights or will it be presented as a team series?

    Because, as they have consistently proved in the Ryder Cup, even if the Americans have on paper got the best individuals they fold like deckchairs when required to adapt to a team environment :good

    yeah, you're right.

    World-wide, we're considered European.

    Even though we are very different to our continental friends & don't consider ourselves 'European'.

    I dont know. I for one would probably favour Ward to beat Balzsay,but I for sure would bet my money on the Hungarian against Dirrel.

    Bute beats them all, unless Dawson comes down to 168, then he beats them all...

    The next 2 years to come - Kessler will be back big time - and trust me. He will try to unify and take on every opponent infront of him :bbb :bbb :bbb
