    Carl Froch defened his WBC World Title with an impressive performance against Dirrell.

    Amir Khan won one the WBA World title Belts at LWW.

    David Haye won the WBA HW World title over Valuev, in just as impressive fashion as Ruiz, Larry Donald, Holyfield, and Chagaev who beat him.

    Wouldn't go that far, its just a few world champions of many. None of them are the undisputed best of their weight like Calzaghe was, and like Hatton was for a long time.

    Not bad though, it looked pretty bad with Hatton gone downhill and Calzaghe gone but Froch and Haye have stepped up to the mark.

    Nah! I'm realistic, forget Khan (for now), Haye did good but Froch has done better that anyone in the past 2 years from our side of the shore, flaws and all he got the results.

    We ain't back on top at all. When was we ever?

    Dirrell lost because he wouldn't engage, and spent too much time running.

    It looks better than it did a few months or so ago, which is good.

    Thought i'd rewatch the Haye fight on you tube,below were some of the comments posted by SIDEDFOREVER-...Dont think he shares the opinion that British Boxing is back on top.

    SigEdForever (4 hours ago) Show Hide 0 Marked as spam Reply this is the last time any british boxer will even touch a world heavyweight championship belt, let alone wear one... trust me. british people are posing as boxers for acclaim on reality tv.. all these crap reality shows began in England anyway and polluted america... pavlik, malignaggi, de la hoya are the gods of boxing.. they cant be beat fairly.. europeans, especially english people, are all cheaters, all pathetic... Haye would be KILLED in the ring against a beast like PAVLIK



    SigEdForever (8 hours ago) Show Hide 0 Marked as spam Reply haha when you give them FACTS yo, the British dont got nothing to say LOL



    SigEdForever (8 hours ago) Show Hide 0 Marked as spam Reply FACTS: Paul Maliganni was KILLING Ricky Hatton. He was destroying him, and Hatton Promotions bribed a trainer to stop the fight so Hatton wouldnt be knocked out in front of his fans.
    FACTS: Valuev was out boxing Haye at a ridiculous level. The Brits put political pressure on the foreign judges to GIVE Haye the decision, so they could make a celebrity out of him.
    Its a DISGRACE!!!! why do the British get away with so much dishonesty?????



    SigEdForever (8 hours ago) Show Hide 0 Marked as spam Reply William Regal is the toughest UK athlete but only the interview part of the show is the 'acting' part or whatever u said, the fighting part is real i saw it in person and they really fall on the mat and stuff, so i would say William Regal is the only legit fighter from Englands, but people like Haye, are cheaters, and i am sure Haye uses steroids. Come on England, stand up and face honesty! face your crimes



    SigEdForever (8 hours ago) Show Hide 0 Marked as spam Reply if Haye tried to fight one of the american heavyweights right now, there would be blood on the union jack, and Hayes wife weeping, because he would be like an out of shape guy off the street going up against a CHAMP. i dont mean offense against a COUNTRY, im just saying that the truth is, no British fighter is worth anything, and the famous ones like Hatton and Calzaghe are cheaters and failures and are a disgrace to sport



    SigEdForever (9 hours ago) Show Hide 0 Marked as spam Reply De La Hoya, the GREATEST of OUR TIME, not the 1950s or whenever Mohammid Ali was, wrote a book called "American Son" so what are u talking about??? Haye is not a real boxer he was like a DJ in London or something and anyway the judges were in cahoots with the British Goverment because they want to make a reality tv show about him. What did Britian give us?? stuff like Gary Glitter... its disgraceful. America is saving boxing. thats why Hatton wants to quit its too hard for him. USA OWNS BOXING
