Why are English fighters on the butt end of everyones jokes here?

You dont remember Hatton Mayweather?

 

Jeff Lacy???

 

i said top boxers, i wouldn't class dirrell as a boxer in ali's class.

basically, ali, tyson, mayweather have all said the same, and that's brit fasn treated them better. these are americans top boxers, not ****ing dirrell.

 

I was thinking the exact same thing about Brits.

ohhhh i get it. Is this the part where you post individual examples of stupid americans to make us all seem dumb?

 

Have you ever sat down and asked yourself, "Why do we British grossly over-rate our fighters?"

Let's consider the three you listed. The first, Froch, is a glorified club fighter. Haye has talent, but has done absolutely nothing to warrant the lavish praise bestowed upon him by numerous Brits at ESB. Meanwhile, Khan-- your latest hype job-- has already been starched and to date has shown no great inclination to return to the ring against a powerful puncher.

 

I don't see any Brits making our fighters out to be great.

 

Brits have about 3 relevant boxers on the world title scene...Haye, Khan, and Froch.

Americans have about 10 or 11. There's the source of the butt hurt. :smoke

 

Please. No one hypes their fighters like the British do, and that explains the gratifying pleasure we (the rest of the ****ing world) enjoy when one of your hype jobs ends up horizontal (see Hatton, Khan, soon-to-be-Haye).

 

I don't think we overrate them, the likes of Haye, Froch and Khan are all ranked highly in their division so we know there of a decent standard, you get a few people overrate them but you get that with fans of all boxers.

I think a lot of it is to do with how we travel abroad to supports our fighters and I don't think American's can quite understand it.

 

Your top man for 8 years.
