Do Americans Fear that in 6 weeks Britain COULD have p4p 1 and 2?

Ricky really hasn't been ignored by the American media for too long. He's been given plenty of attention by the American boxing publications.

 

Why would they care? Boxing is an individual sport. Plus who says Calzaghe gets to be P4P number 2 just for beating Kessler?

 

Not here.

I dont really dont care about nationality, and Im being sincere.

In addition, most American boxing fans (atleast those I know) are rooting for Hatton to win. Do the British really like to polarize things?

 

Great post, you pretty said everything I wanted to say.:good

 

Myself, and all the boxing fans I know could care less about Nationality. since joining this board I couldn't beleive the ammount of bickering between European fans and American fans. From an outside perspective of a person who could care less, its the European fans that seem to make a big deal about it.

 

A s a brit it will be nice,but ill not crow about it,most yanks are pretty cool in the past when they dominated a lot of boxing bar a few twats,as a individual sport as well,i doubt it really matters as much,he would not for example get a huge parade in london,near manchester maybe,but most people here will just shrug there shoulders roll there eyes and get back to watching dancing with the stars or what ever other **** is huge here at the moment.

 

I can see why I had trouble making you accept that Russia won the space race. It's cool to be patriotic, I am too. It's not cool to undermime and insult the achievements of other countries.

 

I agree.

You dont see threads asking if the Brits would care if, two weeks from now, they had no fighters on the P4P list or if their fighters would be low on that list.

 

Dont care if every fighter in the top 10 p4p was euro..

 

Or aliens, as long as they can fight.

 

I'm in agreement with the above. I have fighters I like from all over the world, only one of whom is from my native England. I'm not a Calzaghe or Hatton fan, for some reason they seem to wind me up a bit. I like Junior Witter but I don't get any ideas about him being P4P number 1 like the Calzaghe fans do with their man.
