How come it's the Black British fighters who like wearing the flags on their trunks

exactly boxings all about self promotion and you can use your shorts as a kind of bill board. if you want your country to get behind you, what better way to do it, than to show your patriotic. means more people will get behind you and make you more money!

Perhaps black fighters want to try to reach out to White supports by wearing the flag? Just a guess.


This is the wrong view, it shows u see colour. I have never heard white fighters with flags called racist. Also the racist white people i know would not care if the fighter had a patriotic tattoo on his face, u should have seen some of the bull**** mixed in with a gambling forum in Haye/Klitschko.

 

* before it aswell

 

Why the **** is that wrong? I was born in Ireland to an Irish family but have spent the vast majority of my my life in England. This is probably what I would do.

 

anwer= sponsoring a nations flag shows patriotism which could get them a wider fanbase!! all this = $$$$$

 

Iv spent a lot of time in Ireland. A lot of them hate the English. They see the Union Flag as a sign of suppression. Hate or not, a real born and bred Irishman would never want the Irish flag next to the Union fLAG (or the 'Filth Rag' as some of them call it). Only a plastic EnglishwannabeIrish would do that stupid mixed flag. Im dont know why the hell Nathan Cleverly has worn one before when Wales is not even represented on the Union Flag

 

Who cares?

The vast majority of British fighters suck irrespective of the design on their trunks.
