How Finnish is the Manchine?

[Colin McMillan]

Just because he went there on holiday once don't make him finnish right.

TheManchine:

1) has an American perspective on boxing
2) frequently uses "Americanisms" in his English
3) posts most frequently at times that would make sense for a person in the Eastern time zone of the US, but would be 3 to 6 am in Finland.

TheManchine is one of our most knowledgeable posters, too bad he doesn't seem to really like any European fighters.

All of which I've proven wrong several times.

I'm as Finnish as any Finn you're ever going to find.

How British is Colin McMillan?

I'd need to see TheManchine's driving skills to determine how Finnish he is.

By the way TheManchine, what car do you drive?

I am a Canadian who lived for 6 years in The UK.. I used North Americanisims.. I posted at odd hours.. Often between 12 am and 5 am .. I do not favour any Canadian fighters.. nor do I favour English fighters..

My point.. No one questioned me.. and why would it matter??.. You make the important point.. the man knows his boxing.. why should anything else matter on a boxing forum???

Finland used to a part of the Swedish kingdom until the Russians conquered our lands. The Swedish language stayed and is taught to every Finnish citizen over the age of 12.

There's still a minority of about 6% speaking the Swedish language as their first.

It's not as important as it used to be though, I can hardly speak any of it myself.
