    Why do UK fighters fold so easily???

    Why do UK fighters fold up like cheap lawn chairs? Is it something in the UK water? Lack of sun light? Genetics?


    Josh Taylor and Jose Ramirez are getting it on in 2 weeks, will taylor be the next UK victim to fold up on US Soil?

    I genuinely think Ramirez is the fav in that fight. But I don't think he'll quit,I think thats a more evenly matched fight.

        Taylor didn't fold when Prograis made him look like someone put a baseball under his eyelid.

            No. It's agreed upon before signing the contract.

              Ramirez is a 2/1 underdog I just checked, crazy!

                This is a fair point i'll give you that howver, Ramirez is a diff beast compared to prograis. Ramirez is going to raw dog taylor.

                  Culture.

                  UK boxers are praised for doing far too little. Fury is likely the sole anomaly. But I have a feeling a contributing factor to it is how little respect he garnered for the Klistchko victory. He was always an enemy of the press and boxing establishment (some of that ire well deserved for his ****** ****ing comments) and thus never was showered with the undue, lopsided praise UK fighters often get for merely being from the UK.

                  I myself thought BJS could be slick enough to possibly cause an upset. I also thought Smith had a solid shot too. Both pretty much didn't even lay a scratch. Both of them have been made to be world class talents. I mean, they probably are but it just seems kinda lame how few of them are even able to take Canelo into shallow water.

                    We are built even softer nowadays, you know this new generation . You see how Eastern European train their little ones, over here it would be called “Child abuse” ....So we grow up soft. Even in the schools here, same thing...
