    Because of their limitations. Khan has been KO'd under a minute before and is still possibly vulnerable to that, just check out how people go ape**** till this day whenever Wladimir is possibly fighting anyone with decent power. When you show signs of suspect chin then you're vulnerable to such criticism for a long time.

    Froch is as one-dimensional as it gets, I mean just look at his style of fighting. His defense is poor, no decent movement, doesn't know how to cut off the damn ring(Pavlik and Margarito style, maybe not as terrible but in that level), poor speed, poor skills, not much power and a solid chin. That's pretty much Froch right then, then again his chin all alone can keep him up to compete against top opposition and possibly give them tough fights. The limitations are VERY obvious here.

    David Haye can be taken out of the picture. The hate here is mostly based on the trash talk he started against Wladimir when he made it in the division. He kept demanding that fight with different interviews, maybe not as shameless and worthless as James Toney since he at least won big fights and grabbed a major title, and that easily pisses off fans. There's two negative points about his fighting style and many people will agree with it, possibly poor punch resistance waiting to be exploited and stamina. Those two always attract a lot of criticism and negativity whether the fighter talks smack or not, with Haye's attitude it's easy to see why it attracts too much. I'm a fan of his but that's the truth in my personal view.

    The guys you mentioned have their share of flaws to attract a lot of critism, that's very normal and has nothing to do with where they come from. A lot of others get similar if not far worse criticism, I don't see anyone opening threads claiming they get them because they're from <Insert location>.

    So you are attempting to equate Lend Lease with a simple commerical transaction, you **** for brains??

    How many creditors grant the borrower over 50 years to pay off a balance, *******??

    Nine or ten merchant vessels? Try hundreds, slick. The US built over 500 merhcant ships for use in keeping you ****s afloat.

    I noticed you didn't answer my question: What if we demanded payment up front for said goods and materials, you know, considering how it was a completely mercenary action on our part??

    How would Britain have fared???

    Maybe it would have been cheaper for us but we all know america wanted this ware to carry on (up until their involvement) the US were loving bleeding their closest ally dry while at the same time doing business with hitler. GM, IBM Ford, Precott Bush, all did business with Hitler, the americans were loving it until the japs ruined the party.

    America = money before morals.

    Iran has nothing to do with WWII. However, your ******* countrymen invoked it as an example of things that didn't "turn as we thought." I simply pointed out the role of the UK in said example.

    Or is that too complicated for you to comprehend??

    How many military attempts, incidentally, did the United States engage in, with overwhelming American force, to expel Castro from the island??

    Further, you are aware that Castro was under the umbrella of the Soviet empire, yes?? Consequently, we are talking about a Third World nation with the geo-strategic backing of a military superpower.

    Of course, that is indeed lost on you.

    Yes, by all means, take a look at how many things that haven't worked out for the US over the last 200 years. And while you are at it, take a look at the history of your country in the Middle East, Africa, Afghanistan, the Balkans, and on and on and on.

    I might suggest you begin with the former colony here in the States. How'd that work out for you?? :rofl:rofl:rofl

    Being lectured about morals from a citizen of the chief colonial oppressor in human civilization.

    Remind me again: how many continents around the world did you English possess colonies on???

    England= colonial oppression over morals

    As for the United States and Hitler, perhaps you ought to read Dr. Preparata's tome on the role the US and UK played in the emergence of Nazi Germany. Since I know you will not read the book, see the product summary kindly provided by our good friends at Amazon.com:

    "..........He explains that Britain, still clinging to its empire, was terrified of an alliance forming between Germany and Russia. He shows how Britain, through the Bank of England, came to exercise some control over Weimar and how Britain's financial support for Hitler enabled the Nazis to seize power. Nazism was not regarded as an aberration: for the British establishment of the time, it was a convenient way of destabilising Europe, and driving Germany into conflict with Stalinist Russia. In this way Britain ensured that it would prevent the formation of any rival continental power block."

    Carry on, you ****ing hyprocrite.

    PS- Bleeding you dry? How long were you afforded to pay off the owed sum? 20 years? 40 years? Oh, more? Yeah, we really "bled you dry." LOL

    what does that have to do with american companies doing business with hitler WHILE AT WAR, american soldiers were dying while american execs did business, thats how the US is, a country with no morals, its all about the paper, paper comes before life or morality in the usa.
    Funny thing is you now owe us just under $400 billion in foreign debt, just less than Japan and your new masters China.

    Britain is a much much much smaller country than America, therefore we take more pride in our fighters because there are alot fewer great fighters from Britain than in the USA
