    Would you dare say that about Khan, Eubank, Hide, Chisora, Bruno etc? Thought not. I wonder why non Germanics living in Germany get such a hard time by the English compared to their British counterparts by the same people.

    :huh

    Not to **** on your parade but Khan, Eubank and Bruno were all born in Britain. Not sure why you chose them as examples.

    I was considering using a Bernard Manning quote here but probably wisely decided against it.

    Yeah, probably. Fact is Huck spent all his boxing life in Germany so its right they take some credit.

    What likely does the Germans no favors is renaming people.

    They were very close to renaming the Klitschko's to Walter and Victor Klinsmann actually.
    I'll try and dig up evidence for that.


    Walter and Willi Klitschman actually.

    I prefer Haye to Povetkin.As for Huck,he just cant cut it at heavy.He is not that good imo and will be stopped by any of the top 10 heavy`s.
