    The whole 'Yank' thing that goes on here is imbecilic. As for the idiot flag issue: Welshmen, you were in NY State if you came to watch the fight live at MSG. Would you even recognize the flag of the state you were visiting? Never. Stop being hypocritical and pointlessly judgmental.

    Although i agree that its pointlessly judgemental, Wales is a country, not a state. So thats a stupid comparison, even if Wales is comparatively unimportant on a global scale.

    I disagree that it's a stupid comparison. New York is more important than Wales, is bigger, and has a much larger population. More people globally are more familiar with New York than they are with Wales.

    It's certainly not a stupid comparison. If you couldn't even recognize the flag flying outside the arena, how can you judge the people in it? Would you recognize the flag of Columbia, Argentina? Doubtful. Were the people who asked about the Welsh flag at the fight probably not the brightest of Americans? Yes, absolutely.

    what do you mean bigger ?

    as far as i understand it new york is a very cramped city, not really able to grow much bigger because of geography.

    New York is also a State. I'm refering to the state of New York. The state of New York is bigger and more heavily populated than Wales.

    Dude i'm a Brit and i'm not stupid lol.....what a stupid comment to make, every Brit who has a brain cell knows Wales is a country.

    This thread is pointless tho and was just created to stir up ppl on here. I admit Americans singing USA USA USA doesn't come close to football style chanting (soccer to some lol) but who cares.

    do you mean new york city or state ? cos the city is nowhere near as big as wales. and if you're talking about the state then that as a whole is not as well known as wales, most people are only familiar with the city. your whole post smacks of arrogance and ignorance all at the same time. well done.:good

    a state flag is a bit different from a countries flag,i could tell you 90% of the worlds countries flags if not more.
