    Yes because we all know the only place we see robberies is in the USA.

    Of the recent fights, anybody care to make a list?

    I could only think of the Holy-Lewis I which was a draw. I don't know if the judges were all from the U.S. but I don't see a pattern.

    I hate it when people use the word "fact" at the end of a spurious claim.

    it seems more of a case if you are unknown name v an american favourite.

    if you have a high profile scoring is better, if you have little profile it is very hard to get a points win .

    say lacy v typsko or dlh v sturm as examples.

    Foreign fighters Lennox Lewis and Ricky Hatton were given gift decisions over American fighters Ray Mercer and Luis Collazo in America.
