    Nah, that's ****. The demographic probably sticks at middle. Anyone on an income probably constitutes working class. Anyone on more than 20k a week constitutes middle, and upper, well? That's just in monetary terms. Look at Africa and how many lower class (under) class folk live there, they ain't swinging for Trinidad - Jones tickets.

      Coz a few Americans cry about the booiing during their anthem? Well big ****ing DEAL!!!! LOL Can't believe fools are apologizing...this is boxing, man to man, pimp to pimp, ***** to white boy..It isn't a tickling contest as Hatton said!!

      You sound like a bunch of little kids "Oooooh im so sorry my people bood during your anthem, it really isnt like us really we are different really" lol

      **** the US anthem between the ****ign legs!!! The US aint **** anyways anymore in boxing...We got the Russians in the heavy, we got Calzaghe/Kessler at supermiddle, we got Cotto at welter, the mexicans in the lower weightclasses...now where are teh goddamn americans????

      there is floyd and he should be sprinting, not boxing...he may actually beat Cotto at that!!
      happy?...now go 'ave a pint mate and jack off to your pic of the queen.

          Ahh, but you see, class isn't determined by money. Thats the mistake many who don't understand make. Which is why you can't give a Bernard Hopkin 30 million and call him upper class.

              I WAS going for Hatton...shiiiit...after that.
              I mean I know...everybody knows that Mayweather is a ****head but I dont care if Hatton is fighting Beelzebub..you boo our song and priests are gonna want him to lose.
              We are not the same as Euros in that respect...that is NOT just another song...we are raised different here...we might kill and rob each other but the one thing that unifies us and that we all pretty much agree on is the flag and the song and our respect for them.
              i agree 100 ****en percent. that **** pissed me off to no end. you don't disrespect our national anthem.

                  I don't agree with the racism tho. I wasn't picking Hopkin out for his race. I just couldn't think of a white fighter to use as an example.

                    Do you think Tyrese disrespected the anthem by shouting out his clique seconds after the word "Brave"?

                      Give me ten minutes and I'll try get one for you.

                      Hatton could be a candidate.
