    Sorry to tell you this, but nothing British has struck fear into Americans since The Revolutionary War.

    audley harrison. i have fear that i'll have to watch him fight again.

    lennox was the last true brit great. hatton at least went for it. i give him credit. he fought pac and may in their primes.

    It would help if Americans knew of any British boxers other than Lennox Lewis or Ricky Hatton.

    As for those hardcore American boxing fans... not sure if there are any that strike fear...
    Maybe Khan? Just ask Bradley.

    well khan certainly brings fear to tim bradley. he'll bring it to zab " not so super " judah in july as well.

    a better question would be: which american fighters invoke fear into european's?

    answer: absolutely no one.

    Haye is a ****ing sissy. I'd fight him for $1000 in my front yard with no PPV or SKY money.

    Arreola, Chambers or Thompson would all beat Haye's ass mercilessly...especially Arreola. Too aggressive and has a great chin for Haye to survive that fight.


    Froch is a great fighter. I liked him prior, but the discipline and technique he showed in the Abraham fight by coming out and boxing all night...showed he had multiple dimensions. I respect that and he went up several notches in my opinion after that fight.

    Kahn I think is about 80% real deal and 20% hype. He's not going to beat Pac, Mayweather or JMM. He's not of that caliber.

    :rofl haye would become the daddy to you, that bum arreola, that bum chambers, and that bum thompson...even if all four of you ganged up on him at the same time. those guys are jokes. total embarrassments.

    and if haye were to hit you slacker, he'd smash your cheekbones to pieces. he'd tear out your eyeballs and **** in the sockets.

    Theres a few. Patriotic American fans fear

    Glass chin Khan, notice how none of them have had anything to say about Bradley ducking Khan.

    Haye, there isnt an American HW that can compete with him.

    Froch he has beaten Dirrell and beat Pascal that Hopkins couldnt beat at first asking. They are terrified about a Froch/Ward fight and would love that fight to be in Joakland.

    Others that they will not want to see too much of as it threatens their fighters are N Cleverly, G Groves, J DeGale, K Brook to name a few
