And why bother posting that? We're talking about boxing here, not football. The vast majority of us over here LOVE the Italians.
You've got a minority of English fans that are sore losers, but they're the exception not the rule. The vast majority of us English football fans hold our hands up and say that the best team won, even after losing a penalty shootout. There's always a vocal minority of idiots out there, particularly on the cesspit of Social Media.
I said what I said about the French because it's true. Remember Zidane in the 2006 World Cup Final?

Why do you think he did that? Because he knew that his side didn't have brass ones big enough to beat the Italians in the penalty shootout that he knew was coming and he lost it.
The French are notoriously bad losers, they're very well known for it. They have tantrums like Zidane or sulk.
The English are notoriously good losers, gracious in defeat. We're well known for it. That's why our sportsmen and women and managers hold their hands up, congratulate the winners and say we'll learn from it and come back stronger. I've already named Joshua as a prime example of this. He held up his hands and congratulated the winner, and didn't give 457 excuses why he lost the fight. He didn't stage a fucking sit in protest lol
You might want to put an each way bet on England next year. ;)
Typical French. And yes, it IS a generalisation, and a correct one to make. They've always been sore losers, and always will be. Arrogance is in their DNA.
It's part of the reason why us Brits don't like them that much. 'The British Way' is to congratulate the winner, say the best man/team won on the day and vow that you'll come back stronger the next time you meet.
This is what Joshua, a true sportsman in every way, did and why he did so. Again, it's in our DNA. Fury will do the same if anyone ends up being good enough to beat him (although I personally have my doubts that he'll lose, even with a lucky punch).
