    Surely it just comes down to their style and skill as a fighter.

    For me, living it the UK, it never mattered. I always wanted Tyson to beat the **** outa Bruno, and was never a huge fan of Lewis. It just came down to styles.
    I couldnt give the tiniest ****, as long as they are legit and fighting good competiton.
    Bascilly the only champ I have a problem with right now is Valeuv.
    That punk.

          Well michael spinks and larry holmes are my favourite fighters, not cuz their blacks. I just like both of them becuase they are incredibly talented and under appreciated. I could see michael spinks spank tarver like a *****, these new guys are nothing compared to spinks and holmes.

            To tell you the truth nationality does matter to me. I do support the British fighters and will probably always continue to. But saying that I do have favourite American fighters. I'm actually still considering who to back in the Calzaghe vs Manfredo fight. I always liked Calzaghe but lately hes came over a bit arrogant and I've always liked Manfredo since the first contender episode I was supporting him.

                Not for me, my favorite current fighters are....Antonio Tarver, Wlad Klitschko, Pongsaklek Wonjonkam, Hasim Rahman, Miguel Cotto, Jermain Taylor, Bernard Hopkins, and Vitali klitschko.

                    Not True. Whoever is most entertaining. my favourite are.

                    Carl Froch, English
                    Junior Witter, Black
                    Winky, Black
                    Amir Khan, Asian
                    Alex Arthur, Sweaty Sock,

                    Also like Barrera, Pac man, De La Hoye, David Haye.

                    Race has nothing to do with it.

                      Nah never, and that applies in all division. Americans, Argentinians, Africans, Russians, Koreans, Indonesians, Britons etc etc. They are all being appreciated here depending on how the fighter takes account and conduct himself inside the ring and partially outside the ring.

                      I don't care if the fighter talks trash or bull****s as long as he can back it up, fine with me.
