This all depends on which type of "Fan" you talk about.
There are equal Fans from Both Yanks and Brits who are simply die hard fans of singular fighters.
i.e Nuthuggers. like Floyd & Hatton fans.
Then you have General fans of Boxing who are Universal fans of their own Countries fighters no matter what level of skill or whether they have been caught cheating.
They will follow the fighter simply because of their Flag they fly.
Even when they never saw their mans opponent fight and just assume "that ****en european won't beat usa" like when Calzaghe ***** slapped Lacy for 12 rounds when he was being touted as the second coming of Tyson.
Then you get fans like myself who is a fan of Boxing regardless of the fighters nationality.
For example I am a big fan of old greats like Marciano , Hagler , Joe Louis , Tyson , Ali the list goes on....yet none of those guys are from the country I was born in.
I like Cotto , Floyd , Haye , Miranda , Povetkin , Hatton ...the list goes on.
Yet again I was not born in the Country of these fighters.
And look.....some of them are american.
Amazing.
And unbiased.

i am not sure if biased is the correct term. british fans have many less fighters to rally around, and they are very passionate about the ones they have. nothing wrong with that. i also see alot of brits here who like american fighters defending them as well, and vice versa!Comment

this is so true all i will add to that is it does'nt help British fans readdress the balance when u get some American fans saying things like if u aint fought in America u aint **** or they dismiss your fighters for the same reasoni am not sure if biased is the correct term. british fans have many less fighters to rally around, and they are very passionate about the ones they have. nothing wrong with that. i also see alot of brits here who like american fighters defending them as well, and vice versa!

Floyd has the most nut huggers on this forum closely followed by Roy Jones. Both sets of fans are very ignorant to when it's suggested they could/ could have lost to other fighters. Then there are other people on here, clearly yanks who will pick Hopkins over Calzaghe because "he iz the greatest, calzaghe is a *****!" - Basicly not even giving a logical opinion and letting their nationality blind their opinion ... If they even have one.
I'd say over all it is Americans.Comment
I don't see any Americans with Terry Norris sig or avatar, you're probably the only one.
