I am not knocking on them or there fans but its funny how Uk fighters get huge support from their country men but when they actually step up and fight americans many get trampled. Got to give it up to uk fans though they love theior fights

Got to cheer on your own.
We've had our moments which I will happily recite in some depth

Only criticism I have nowadays is that in the past we cheered on our guys but appreciated and respected the skill of their opponents and gave it its due applause.
I hate all the booing of other nations national anthem etc which a lot of Brits do in a misguided show of support. I can assure people that it embarasses and angers right minded Brits as well.

Carl Froch is a true future British great. He isn't like the Hatton's, Zaghe's, Haye's and so on and so forth.

The way he beat down Taylor showed me everything. He definately earned my respect. (I am an American, mind you.)

British fans are the best in the world and this is coming form a biased Yank.

Your not a Yankee. I come to this conclusion because you called yourself a "Yank". What American calls themselves a "Yank"? Thats what our cousins over in England call us.
