English to destroy Las Vegas if Hatton loses

[FloydIsDaBest]

He wasn't trying to be mean, it only takes a few people to cause a riot. No one said that all brits are like that. Though, when you see them shouting that dumb song out loud and singing it in the audience, I'm pretty sure its not going to be a pretty sight in las vegas if Hatton gets destroyed by Mayweathers.

Oh for sure (sorry, this is Anorak, forgot to log out of alt account)... I cringe when I see British fans booing the opponent's national anthem or being rowdy and so on. The point kind of IS valid, but at the same time unnecessary and generalising.

I'm sure it depends on location/fighter as well. The crowds at some London locations are very well behaved.

And please, if you're gonna talk about intelligence of boxing fans, at least learn the meaning of their/there/they're

What are you talking about? When did I misuse these words??

You know what I really wonder though Anorak...

Are you really so peeved at this thread OR was it just a set up for your alias. Whoops. I almost let tht one out.

Nah, it just bugged me, man. The alias is out, btw, check his/my threads listing.

I mean, I'm a second generation Mick that's grown up/was born in England, and I expected better from a fellow mick, you know what I mean?

Though to be fair the warm appreciation that the Dublin crowd showed Kiko Martinez WAS examplary. I mean, you DO have a point... they're just Manc chavs, really. But...

While a disgraceful scene, this happened TWENTY SEVEN YEARS AGO.

Unless those same fans plan to throw bottles from their zimmer frames, it's a bit ridiculous to cite an example from three decades ago as an example of what could happen today, don't you think?

It was the only example I had of a boxing event being ruined by these fans, I could list a whole lot more relating to other sports, and very, very recent. However, I was focused on boxing. And yes, 27 years ago

BUT

With the Mass Media Hype this fight is getting, and the huge boost and following Hatton will get into this fight. Will there be a negative effect if all of this hysteria blows up in the fan faces.

I don't agree that this is Generalisation. I chose English fans, because Hatton is English, and I'm discussing the Hatton-Mayweather fight. Thats just the reason.

Yeah, I understand, no worries.

I didn't know it was sprung,lol. I kept it secret for ya tho for a long while Surely I've regained your respect? j/k

I don't ****ing know. It wouldn't suprise me if some kind of grief happened. As for the people saying that the folks who have the tickets will be to rich to start trouble/ that the hooligans can't afford to go - thats bull ****...

1. The followers of England abroad manage to afford that, well why not America

2. The fans who are rich enough to buy tickets may not start fighting...but those who've gone across for the atmosphere and to watch it on tv in Vegas... thats where your trouble will be.


In honesty - the trouble wont happen depending on the result. If the hooligans want to **** up somewhere, they'll do it... regardless of the outcome of the fight.

So presumably you'll be making a "Senors will rip Pacquiao a new arsehole next week" thread then?

And yes, you have my respect... I gave you a K slap tonight, but I'll return some love later.

sounds like the county jails in vegas are going to be full!

Yeah thats a key point there.
