      Seriously, these are the most delusional fools I have ever seen...
      In all fairness i think england is as knowledgeable about U.S. fighters as the U.S. fans are knowledgeable about British fighters...

      Of course both countries know the other countries top fighters:

      Britian has heard of the likes of Floyd Mayweather Jr, Oscar De La Hoya, Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosley, etc. etc. etc.

      U.S. has heard of the likes of Joe Calzaghe, Ricky Hatton, Haye, etc. etc. etc.

      I just think we back our fighters as much as they back theirs...

      However the only MAJOR difference is that i think (historically and currently) the united states has the far superior level of competition.

      Im not saying that other countries are no good but i believe the best level of competition comes to the U.S. to fight the best.

      Mexicans (JMM, MAB, JCC, etc.)
      Puerto Ricans (Cotto, Trinidad, etc.)
      Brits (Hatton, Calzaghe, etc.)
      Russians (Wlad, Vitali, etc.)
      and on and on

      ALL come to the united states.

      I dont know why it works that way but i know that in the U.S. is where the best of the best come to fight.

              Sin still asks ridiculous questions, but he no longer puts a poll on his thread to get a quantitative response to the questions that he asks.

              Perhaps this is because all his polls ever served to prove was that Sin is completely in the minority with his opinions.

              Did you find that discredited your trolling a little bit mate?
              says the guy that picked Hatton over Floyd lol

                  They seem to be passionate good fans. Whether they tend to have a more skewed vision of their fighters being a small group of countries who knows. There are a few posters on here, regulars know, who post absolute junk non stop about JC, Hatton, etc. I think they are just the bad apples that have fallen from a healthy tree.

                      Exactly, I could say exactly the same about the US fight fans on here.

                      And people like diegofuego and $in piss me off because all they want to do is bash the brit fighters, Anyone would think they were arse ****d by a brit when they were a kid.
