    Also English and last 35 years American pisses all over Europe

    SOPme of my favourite fighters are American.
    Look no further than

    - Sugar Ray Leonard
    - Tommy Hearns
    - Marvin Hagler
    - Mike Tyson
    - Roy Jones Jr
    - Bernard Hopkins
    - Floyd Mayweather Jr
    - Evander Holyfield


    NO Competition. Although England does have Lewis! But them guys are all ATG's ^^^^^

    Your absolutely right. I dont know what made me forget prime MW Benn or peak MW Eubank :patsch. Id favour both to beat MW Hopkins, just goes to show Europe would easily beat America.
    I think only WW would be Americas best shot, and thats starting to be taken over by Europeans

    But it's the best Europeans ever against the US from the last 35 years, every example you gave has been fairly recent.

    I realise that, it was a bit out of sight out of mind. I should have put Ken Buchanan at LW

    As much as I loved that raping and destruction of Naz's career and credibility by MAB, we can't count that one, as MAB is Mexican from Mexico Not USA. :D

    Of course I do. Whys it ****? Because you dont agree?
    A matter of fact ive even changed my mind about the MWs, N Benn and C Eubank would have beaten guys like Hagler and Hopkins, making it another division to Europe. Buchanan at LW also making that another division again.

    Of course R (ripped fuel) Jones would have been beaten by Michalczewski, Calzaghe, Ottke or Erdei
    Whitaker at LW would have lost to Buchanan
    Norris would lose to Dzinziruk

    Ottke? I cannot believe I got into a conversation with you now. Seriously, first I thought it was just bias, but it's clearly something much, much, worse.

    Ottke SMW champ in his 13th fight. 21 defences. IBF/WBA champ. Would have boxed rings around Jones

    Remember when Ottke KOd Mundine who tries (not to the same effect) to fight like Jones. Ottke made up for being behind on points in that one. Could see there fight going in a similar way
