      P.S. I know he's not going to fight out of Britain, this is just a fantasy scenario.

      Poll coming...
      Are we talking.....Floyd Mayweather jr as an american defecting to the united kingdom...cold war status???

      Or If floyd had been Brittish instead of American?

        Lol

        That's some back handed ****, dam...

        Anyway, yeah, sure. I'd still pay to watch him fight, it wouldn't matter to me where he chooses to relocate.

          it would meant fights stating at around 4pm for you. still, better than us having to watch your fights at 4am ffs.

                i havent seen a big american fight in a sober state in quite a long time! 4am means a hell of a lot of beer. on many occasions, i really shouldnt have bothered cos when i wake up i remember the result but thats about it!

                  If Mayweather had been born brittish as opposed to being american I wouldnt see it as a problem because who cares what ethnicity a fighter is.

                  If Mayweather was visiting the UK and decided he liked it so much he would live there I would have no problem with that.

                  But if a fighter defected to another country for personal preference I would have some serious personal belief issues with that.

                      Yea, I cant remember the last time i was sobber for a big fight, Having to stay up or wake up at 4 am kills when you need to sleep sometimes.

                      And that the dedication we the UK fans have for the sport of boxing, I cant imagine American fans doing that..
