British Fighters Appreciation Thread

[BOLLOCKS]

You all need to Stop hating on them.

Alot of them are real warriors. That deserve Boxing fan's respect.

Lennox and Ricky both have my utmost respect.

David Haye is still unproven (at HW) and I won't take him seriously as a Heavyweight until he impresses me. Fighting a guy who lost to Joe Mesi isn't exactly the best way to get my respect.

Michael Watson is somewhat of a favorite of mine.

for such a small country britain produces loads of great fighters

I'm a huge Lennox fan. Guys like Eubank and Benn were great fighters as well. I am a fan of Haye however he does have to prove himself at HW yet. Definatley have a huge amount of respect for Joe Calzaghe and what he has achieved. Not the biggest Ricky Hatton fan but that has nothing to do with his nationality.

I wouldn't necessarily call it "such a small country".

Britain have some great fighters Calzaghe and Hatton are my two favorite though, dont really rate David Hayes, good boxer, but i think all he relies on is power. Another person is Frankie Gavin great as an amateur but i dont think he will make it at welterweight(?) as a pro.

Ok. I'm talking Britain, which I don't consider small. Its population is over 60 million right?

[The Hammer]

Britain has produced possibly the greatest fighter of the past 15 years, although he's still underrated by Americans: Joe Calzaghe.
