      Your argument has been made invalid again.


      2009, the year British boxing died?

      Look at the 80s, hardly a golden decade for British boxing. Then we get Lennox Lewis.
      Don't take this personal...but you're not competent enough to debate with me....


      We all now know Hatton was ****...I personally knew this all along...but it took him getting owned twice for everyone to know...

      but...why was Hatton considered a P4Per on lists and touted by you guys so insanely before he was clearly exposed?

      You see...if you knew boxing...you would have always known he was a typical, C level british fighter....like I did.

      As far as Lewis...hmmmm....you had Lennox (who I like and respect) and Calzaghe (who I know is overrated)....that's 2 fighters who were considered top tier....

      over the course of HOW many years?....


      It's over, Demise....yes....british boxing is clearly rebuilding...it will take you all 10 years to have a Lewis or Calzaghe level fighter again....

          Brits arent really dominating anything heavily right now but we're a major contender in almost all sports
          Anderson Silva arguably P4P the best fighter in MMA

          Didn't they just win the confederation cup???

          Contenders in what sports really??

          League, you guys are a joke. Australia ****s the British every time. How many countries take rugby league seriously?? England, OZ and New Zealand.

          Heck NZ has only one rugby league club

          Union, you guys are no longer a threat. Also not many countries take rugby union serious.

          Cricket as well. Oz,Eng,SA,NZ,India,**** and that’s it pretty much

          Football, you guys are decent. Couldn't manage a draw against Croatia at home in a raining day at Wembley

          Must admit, you guys are doing pretty good at F1

            Well seeing as our biggest hopes are in their early 20s. Then it probably will take another 10 years.

            So, yet again. You provide another invalid point.

              Must I repeat myself?

              By the way, correction.

              Brazil has a population of 191 million people. That's more than 3 times as big as Britain.

              Couldn't manage at draw against Croatia?

                In fact, Manny Duckman.

                  The national sport of Brazil is football.
                  National sport of India is cricket.
                  National sport of Australia/SA is cricket and rugby.
                  National sport of Britain is rugby/football/tennis/cricket


                  Kind of hard to be good at one thing.

                  Jack of all trades, master of none.
                  The number one sport is Brazil is beach volleyball. Football is religion.

                  Cricket and Rugby are NOT Australia's national sport. The most popular sport in OZ is Australian rules football. And Union is a dead sport right now. With only 3 clubs. Also League has a dwindling support base as well. They can only get 15k to a game even less than 10k some times.

                    Britian is competitive in many, many sports. At least they don't create American Football and baseball and sit at home claiming 'world domination'.
