fair enough, I grew up watching Nigel Benn, Chris Eubank and Michael Watson and that's what really got me into the sport. In truth, I like the US as a place, their people and their boxing, this is just some banter.well why i'm a fan of british boxing, is the fights that got me started in boxing, were all british fighters and i used to get all these old britsh fights on my tv as a child....kinda grew up with it...and i love the the fighting styles of the brits....its not like your typical middle/eastern european style....its a really unique style.Comment

For the record, Froch has made himself a new fan with me, though I never hated him. I defended Calzaghe for the most part and I WOULDN'T be SO shocked if Hatton won, I just don't think he will.
But, facts are facts. Boxing is populated by WAY more Americans then Brits. Especially elite fighters.Comment

I'm not sure Hatton will win either but I hope to fk he does. If he fights the way he normally fights and the ref allows some in-fighting (not holding, just leaning in) I think he'll put Manny to the sword, if not I think we might see a slow death for Ricky.
One thing's for sure though, if he beats Pac he'll have hit the big time like never before.
Froch seems like a good bloke too, most of our best fighters seem to be decent guys, we only had one twat and that was Eubank.Comment
