Examples of the Crowd Supporting the Away Boxer

Against George Arias on the Khan VS Prescott undercard. Audley was booed from the end of the 1st round throughout, he killed the atmosphere and it wasn't until about the 4th round of Arthur V's Cook that we realised some boxing was taking place again.

 

The Froch fans were not supporting Bute! :rofl :nut

 

Any James Degale fight

 

This question is for your dissertation? What on earth are you studying? :huh

Wish I could talk about boxing in mine :thumbsup

You obviously weren't there.

 

Haye-Chisora? I know they are both London lads but Haye was technically the "away fighter" being a millwall and all. He was the massive crowd favourite on the night though

 

Hatton/Mayweather?

 

How 'bout Wlad vs Haye? Or doesn't that count?

The majority of the crowd was favoring Wlad of course. But there were so many Brits present in Germany, and they were so loud that it looked like Haye was fighting at home (also German crowds are know to be pretty quiet).

 

khan v barerra.even at the weigh inn!! over thousand there,went mad for the mexican, men sold out on strength of barerra was 70-30 for him.Was a joke how fight ended, should have ended earlier bu that would av been no contest and amir wouldnt have been on way to title shot.marco rocked him with a left,amir was well ahead dont get me wrong but who knows...im not an amir hater, hope he fights agAin at M.E.N.

 

tyson francis.....

 

Mayweather - Hatton.

 

The Duran-Moore and Mayweather-Hatton fights are just examples of the away fighter being much more popular and having stronger,more vocal fanbase's.Alex Arthur-Ricky Burns was like this and you'd have never known that this was taking place in Arthur's backyard given the repeated "Alex Arthur,you're a wanker,you're a wanker!" chants.

 

Quite a few fairly recent examples. Thanks, lads!
