    Why is it so rare that you share your sense of humor?

    And do you know what a Johnson bar is?

        The only reason fights are made largely in the USA is purely for REVENUE.
        Not because American fighters are particularly any better or that the Oxygen is different or something.
        In other words MONEY.
        But you already know this arsewipe and only make your ****ty threads for the Troll factor.

        Another thing , how much longer can the USA be considered the Mecca of Boxing when it is performing so badly?
        From a pool of 300 million people the USA is being outshone by far smaller nations around the world.
        And it has been a good few years since the USA had anyone to threaten Heavyweight dominance.

          Because in America not many people are nationalistic compared to other countries so you will be less likely to get nepotism...the fighter wont win just cause they are american. Like in Britain that ref stopped the manfredo calzaghe fight for no real reason his only reason was he was scared joe c would gas out and then manfredo would spark a comeback and pull the upset so he stopped it.

          to save the welshman.

              Calzaghe "gas out"?

              The fight was stopped prematurely, but Manfredo wasn't throwing anything back for a while, it's hard to feel sympathy for him. Manfredo was just looking to survive.

                Exactly. Europe is known for shading judging and officiating, especially Germany and the UK. They have to protect what few good fighters they have...

                  yup

                  they are a very nationalistic nation brits Stick together like Glue did you see the Celebrity Apprentice? that guy pears morgan kept choosing lennox to be on his team and when they were on the side he was always saying this is for Britain.


                  dont even get me started on the hatton vs tszyu fight...kostya was sleepy as **** and hatton kept holding and fighting dirty but the ref let him.

                  such a shame they had to let a legend go out like that.

                      Happens rarely in the US.

                      Happens so often in Europe that people aren't even surprised anymore...
