why do america belive all uk boxers are terrible!

Lol so just because you made the rules 100 years ago means you have a deep history. How many heavyweight champions have you had the last 100 years lmao? 2? How many top p4p fighters have you had? none? You have a bunch of paper champs 140 and supermiddle, ****ing Zab Judah would **** 140, and Calzaghe hid in Wales until all the great American boxers in that weight range got old..

Lol Hatton was the best you had, and Floyd raped him. British boxing doesnt deserve to be in the same breath as American boxing.

 

US Boxing media is extremely provincial.

 

cause they have a ridiculous record against club fighters than come to usa to fight the top notch fighters and lose in most cases

 

Who has Calzaghe ducked then?

He hasn't had the most glittering of careers, but Eubanks, Kessler, Lacy etc are no mugs.

 

Americans :S

 

id expect that from a douche bag called mney mayweather that sports a dip**** poster of his favourite *** boy as an avatar

 

Man, I thought there was some idiots around here... and I was right.

May I just remind you: England is about the size of Kansas. WTF do you expect from us, exactly? When you look at the ratio of great fighters compared to the size of the country itself, it's actually pretty impressive how many we turn out.

 

Folks please!!!!!! Only the very stupidest American fans dont rate British Boxers. The History of Boxing is littered with British influence and culture, and any Intelligent knowledgable Yankee knows that. A slew of Great British boxers and fights have occured. Being a wanker is a global epidemic, If only we could vacinate.

 

I think Americans are just more realistic about our boxers than we are.

 

The belief "sometimes true" that the comp in Europe is inferior to that of the States. That Many Europeans will milk a title at home and seek noncompetitive fights usually with the aid of hometown decisions, favorable refs and home court advantage. These Champions then sit on a cheese title for years racking up defenses against tomato cans. This Hysteria is then maintained by fans from that Country who are fans of their fighter first and then the sport. Their fams usaully exaggerate the accomplishments of their fighter and blow any victory totaly out of proportiom. These Chaps then achieve a lofty status without ever having really taken a true challenge

Then when these guys come to compete against the best here in the US NOT ALWAYS BUT USUALLY THEY GET THIER ASSES HANDED TO THEM....

This is a Proto-type and not to be confused with Every Euro Champ but thats what the belief and truth is in many cases, and as we speak the jury is out on a few supposed great ones on who we shall soon have answers.

 

Eubanks was done and not at his best weight, Lacy was mug. Kessler a decent fighter but basically untested.

 

how about Puerto Rico......tiny but hey? rich in skills and Champs
and they prove it at the highest level in the US

 

USA dont read The Sun probably.

 

Its the stupid, ignorant Americans who think because some british fighters are over-rated that all of them are. Lack of respect & intelligence, and arrogance

 

Absolutely man. Huge respect to the Puerto Rican fighters! :good
