    The reason i say English hype job is because Welsh Irish and scots fighters don't get anywhere near the same level of hype or media attention in the u.k. I like josh Kelly btw he could be very good but there's still lots of questions to be answered regarding that.

    I'm 100% straight and I scored a whopping 0% on the gay thoughts test. Pretty sure you also criticized the #1 most handsome boxer on the planet Gvozdyk for lack of punch resistance before too, which screams gay to me, and correct me if I'm wrong but aren't you also French? I rest my case.

    The only fighters from England in recent years who have generated and hype has been a result of either performance at olympics (Khan+Joshua) or getting in the ring against top guys/americans (Hatton+Brook).

    Scots should be more grateful to the English.....

    An average fighter like Burns got 3 world titles and avoided numerous losses on his record thanks to an Englishmen in the form of Eddie Hearn.

    The Tartan Tornado looks **** hot. Scots also have very talented prospects coming through in Lee McGregor and Willie Hutchinson. The future is bright for Scottish boxing.

    England had roughly as many world champions in 2016 than Scotland have had in their History. (4 Sources read, 3 say Scotland have had 12, one says they have had 16).

    That's probably why there is 'more hype' around English boxers compared to the Scots.

    England haven't produced many better than at least two of those 12 or 16 Scots. Theres only maybe 2 or 3 English boxers that have been better than Buchanan and Lynch. I dont Think England have ever produced a amateur boxer better than Scotlands Dick Mctaggart either.

    Au contraire mon frère, you can evade punches just by using body and head movement, even at the higher level. Roy and Maravilla did so magnificently, who's to say Pretty Boy Kelly isn't capable of the same? He's clearly a prodigy, and if he isn't rushed and allowed to perfect his style, he can milk this style until his body starts failing him, then he should retire immediately, like Sergio, sadly Roy seems to love being KTFO.
