    No Reason...You could easily say...

    UK Vs. Whoever..that would be good

    I didnt want to get too specific. I could have said New York vs.?
    Or Tijauna Vs. ? or San Juan Vs.Etc.
    No offense.

    Ive been liking the whole European Movement ..The more the merrier. Europe Took over the Heavyweight division. But its intersting to see if The Americans will again dominate that division.

      yeah but it wasn't like now adays with people stabbing each other and stuff except maybe a little bit I dont know but it was better spirited.

            Well the UK is a country. Europe is a continent. New York is a city.

            Its like grouping Americans with Canadians

              Thais vs Japs are always a good rivarly. (Btw no need to take the word jap offensive. Hozumi Hasegawa is my third favorite fighter....)

                    Im not trying to start **** with you lol. Im just saying, people dont consider themselves as "European". So there is no real "European vs USA" rivalry.

                      Really? Even the people living on the continent? I think there is a bit of a European entity amoung the continental countries to be honest. At least it seemed that way to me when I was over there in Dec/Jan.


                      On topic, Mexico v PR and it is not even close.
