    Just thought i would re-post this statement as it is by far the most intelligent post on this thread.

    It unfortunately, like most good posts on ESB, got lost in the myriad of **** spouted by childish idiots who would rather get involved in slanging matches than good, intelligent, honest debate.

    For the good of the sport we need to stop this rival thing.Get it together and make big fights.The super six thing is a step in the right direction it might not be to everyones like but its a start.Boxing needs to change and it needs the US and Euro as one making the fights go ahead.I will always support the Euro fighter but have nothing but respect for the US guys.I was gutted Jermain did not hear the last bell in the Abraham fight.

    The mediterranean is not a continent.

    Greece is in Europe.

    It is part of the European Union, It uses the Euro for currency, its sports men and women take part in European competitions and if you check out a map you can quite clearly see that Greece is in the European region.

    OMG how many more times lol greece IS part of europe. What type of thick person are you, And ofc i know about the blitz just like i know about pearl harbour and the normandy beach landing and the rest. I also know that europe would have won the war anyway thanks to the russians, the same russians that had you terrefied for the whole cold war. You cant belittle europe when it comes to WW2 because unlike you atleast the UK had the balls to stand up to Hitler and try defend the smaller countrys. You tried to profit by selling arms and only after you got attacked did u bother to help. You did it out of revenge and a forced hand thats all.

    I'm going to Greece in a few weeks.

    I'm now excited to learn that this is not a European holiday as I assumed, but that I'll be visiting a whole new continent of 'mediterainian'. Unless France, Spain, Italy or Egypt are also in 'mediterainian' in which case I've already been there...

    The USA, of course. Has anybody been paying attention to the Super Six? Our boy Dirrell just popped Abraham's loss cherry and got robbed against Froch. Can't none of those Euros **** with the likes of Floyd Mayweather Jr., Paul Williams, Andre Dirrell, Andre Ward, or Chad Dawson, all of whom are Americans. USA!

    What the hell does having the Euro as currency have to do with being a Euro country? Lots of countries in Europe don't use the Euro...
