    I laughed.

      Boxing is nothing over here. Darts ranks higher than boxing in England.

              I understand that but you guys don't have that many world class fighters. Over here we have many, so there are more options. You guys are better fans, I'd admit that and so would any American, but if we only had one or two great fighters we would get behind them as well.

              As for Darts I don't understand why anyone would want to watch that. Fun to play(only when you are drinking) but I wouldn't consider it exciting.

                They still have a lot of sports ahead of boxing like, football/soccer, F1, cricket, rugby, snooker, and darts. Plus they are significantly smaller population wise.

                They tend to build up only a few fighters and go all out with them though.

                  America is 40% bigger than the UK. Texas alone is 3 times bigger.
