The pro-Brit crowd bore me to tears, so you're preaching to a fellow preacher. While a cut of American fans here may be guilty of ignorance vis a vis UK/Euro fighters, generally it's not a fist-pumping, jingoistic type of ignorance. It's more a plain clueless 'I haven't seen this fighter fight so I don't really know what I'm talking about' type of ignorance. With too many of the British posters here, it really is a fist-pumping, jingoistic thing.
LMAO@the little girl UK cheerleaders that are spamming the forum....

But I have def. seen my share of American's acting like that, especially a few years back. It seems more Brits are getting more American exposure and doing better than the old days (Bruno etc.) so that type of thinking has died down...Comment

Anyone who says they didn't care about this fight does not watch boxing.
Anyone that can't see past Taylor's few doubtful preformances to see how good of a fighter he really is does not watch boxing.
But that's just my opinion.Comment

And with that wave of British success comes an influx of jingoistic knuckleheads to boxingscene, looking for fights, swinging their handbags around and acting like they cared about any of these fighters before they were the toast of the British sports presses. Ah well.Comment

1. Props to Froch. He gutted it out. Very impressive. Needs to clean up his technical flaws though or he might get Pavliked by someone more skilled.
2. Props to Butterball for calling it.
3. Did I miss something or was this some heavily hyped up America vs. UK battle with everyone picking along national lines before the fight? I'm pretty sure very few people gave two ****s about Taylor on this forum and over here. But I come on here and it's Hatton just beat Mayweather or Bruno just KOed prime Mike Tyson. For the love of God do you guys realize how silly you are?
4. Taylor deserved to get KOed. He's a mentally weak ******* that doesn't "like boxing" outside of the ring and that's pretty much why he doesn't do well. He doesn't strive to improve. He coasts on his athletic talent. In ANY sport I'll take the hard worker over the physically gifted lazy guy. Butterball is correct, his record when stepping up has not been great. Other than proving to me that Hopkins was fading, what exactly has he done? Gone to WAR with Winky at MW? hhahahahahahaa.
5. Before some small ****ed flag waving loser says anything, I never made a prediction about this fight, because frankly, I did not care. You know, like most people over here. Sorry to offend but I had no dog in the fight. This fight was just a fun barometer to see how far JT had fallen/never was and if Froch had what it took when stepping up in competition. I look forward to seeing Froch fight some more. At least he "likes boxing" unlike Jermain.Comment
