    If you look at individual British boxers i.e. Witter, Hatton and Calzaghe.....they don't fight the same way so what makes you think that British boxers fighters fight like euros.......... and that any euro fighters fight like other euro fighters!!!

    Does Hopkins fight like Tyson?

            No it isn't. We are divided from Europe by the sea, a series of wars and our utter lack of culture.

              Clegg, you are going to have to state your point. My lap is old and takes a while to view that stuff, and i'm not on my computer. Just state your point.

                  Well......Britain might have the stronger currency right now but as you well know........it is only a matter of time when Britain will have to accept the Euro currency....if not then it will find itself between a rock and a hard place.

                      European is like Kessler I think.

                      and also refers to textbook type stance and ways of fighting. For example both hands quite high, or around chin. Basically an orthodox, style.

                      I wouldn't say Calzaghe or Hatton, or Haye utilise this at all.
