    And.....your from Wales so youre obviously biased and your opinion is worth zero.

    I say both countries in most likely cases biased towards their own fighters naturally.

        Is it bias that American fighters are better?
        I think there are a lot of fine fighters on both sides of the pond.
        It if fine to root for folks that you see inside your community - and it is easy to see certain other communities as the bad guys.
        I find it really easy to see the Brits as the bad guys - but it really is in good fun. The rivalry makes the competition more exciting.

          I would say Brits. Anyone who thinks a skilless Hatton was going to beat Mayweather, is biased. And believe me, it was pretty much all of them that thought that.

            [QUOTE=Left2body;3196396] There is a reason that Tzu vs Hatton was fought at 2am.

            oohh the conspiracy theorys

            and there is also a reason Floyd Mayweather fought Ricky Hatton in the U.S ,bigger ring ,choice of referee , possibly favourable Judging

            regardless wether Hatton was overmatched & would have lost in any circumstances Floyd still wanted every advantage conceivable ,maybe that is why Hopkins refuses to fight Calzaghe in Britain cause he wants all the adavantges aswell

            no i agree with u though it is all one way traffic ,its commonsense that fighters want to gain every advantage they can within the laws of the game ,but guess what it aint just a British thing

            i really dont see what point u were trying to make there in anycase

              Sorry I'm French, my English is very bad but I like to correct your spelling errors.
              I picked zag in that fight... and also wanted him to win

                That sums it up.

                  no question the british fans. theres no point for a poll cuz the psycho brits are just gonna vote american but the reality is that brits are by far and away more biased than the american fans. American fans I find like boxers based on boxing alone where as british fans like boxers purley on their british nationality regardless of their skills and accomplishments.

                  example of british fans: "Hatton was ko'd because of the ref."

                      Yup, this proves Americans are not as biased. I've not seen any British voting British.
