    i have noticed a lot on here that british fighters dont get much respect and a lot of the time rightly so due to the standard of opposition they face, but if Ricky Hatton and Joe Calzaghe manage to win their upcoming fights will British boxing be respected more?

    I respect the Brits. They have some very good boxers. I just hate when they start spewing off **** like "American boxers are **** because Lacy got whooped by Calzaghe."

    I don't know how you can't respect the Brits:

    Hatton
    Calzaghe
    Woods
    Witter
    Haye
    Rees
    Arthur
    Froch
    Enzo

    That list speaks for itself.
