[moofo]

Oh yeah,Lennox Lewis...how could I have over looked him?
Ok...I'll give you one.....by the way,How did he do for you Brits in the Olympics?

Randy Turpin beat SRR which you ignored.
Lloyd Honeygan Beat Don Curry.

Nigel Benn beat Gerald McClellan

Lennox Lewis born & raised in london for 13 years then lived in the Commonwealth country of Canada.

Ricky Hatton
........


What is your problem???
You come from a populace of 300 million.
Don't you think the US should be beating the poor Brits?

[Brother Blues]

So you say Turpin is an all time great?...if you say so,I believe you...that's two.

Benn and Honeygan....please,you must can do better than that.Good fighters,maybe...but all time greats?...please...

Are they in the Hall of Fame???

Hall of Fame.

Ken Buchanan.
Barry Mcguigan
Jim Driscoll
Bob Fitzimmons.
Ted Kid Lewis
Benny Lynch
Jimmy Wilde

And pretty Much ALL OF THE PIONEERS OF BOXING in the Hall of fame are British.
Back in the days when fights lasted 20 or more rounds.

[tykilroy]

Like Eubank?

Why should he fight anyone in America? Why would a Brit give a **** what america thinks?

Because everyone gives a **** what Americans think! That is why other countries try to be like the U.S.

You are so VERY WRONG.
The ONE and only reason why Fighters SOMETIMES CHOOSE to fight in America is for the PAYDAY.
Other countries don't try to be like the US as most other countries have their own History and Culture and are fiercely proud.
The US doesn't really have a definitive culture as it is a bastardised mix of ex-europeans and descendants of African ******.
Every other Nation has an Identity.
The US tries to impose it's way of life on the rest of the world and that is where the problem lies.

The big pay day just happens to come with fighting the best , if you are good enough the money will always come anyway ,, what drives the greats to the next level is their desire to be the best , the greats fight for the glory , not money , thats just a fringe benefit .

Not knocking you but these days I find it hard to believe that a lot of champs adhere to what you say.

[mrhicks]

it dont matter what you say about the number of great european fighters....

they arent going to listen .. its ****ed

bunch of ignorant people...

[RodBarker]

Thats the difference , Im not talking about champs and belt holders Im talking about greats , it aint the money that gets them out of silk sheets to train at 4am .

[Jim Jeffries]

I guess you haven't heard of Lennox Lewis then. Ahem.... the last person to unify the Heavyweight division.
