Junior Witter: "I Want Recognition in America"

[duffgun]

England was supported by th entire Commonwealth, including a proportionally huge number of young men from Canada

it was still mostly empire countries back then, as we owned them we could use them, the French did the same, the Russians used a lot of foreign people that were under there control.

I had never seen Junior Witter fight before tonight. I am in the process of watching his fight with Zab Judah. Before the fight, I guess Judah said he was like Naseem Hamed, without the power. I thought that was a bit harsh, until I saw him fight. He is an idiot in the ring. The highest his hands get defensively are at his waist. He doesn't throw many punches. He fouls more than he connects with legal punches. He exposes his back more than any fighter I've ever seen. So on my scorecard, he is down 7 rounds to none, and in the 8th round, he turns to look at the crowd, and waves, in the middle of the fight.

Somone please tell me this idiot has changed pretty much everything about himself.

I mean, seriously, it's no wonder Ricky Hatton hates him so much. He is an egotistical douchebag.

You are an embarrassment to Brits with your ignorance, really.

Try talking with some Brit vets and they'll tell you it was 10's of thousands of young Canadian men and boys that volunteered to fight. The Crown didn't enforce any sort of obligation from the "empire countries" as you call them. Canada was self-governed at that time and was recognized as a sovereign country, not as a colony. The Canadian government at that time did not need to "draft" men to fight, they had lots of willing boys ready to go over.
