Xenophobia against English fighters?

[AKATheMack]

If the British were as good as they say they are all they would have to do is have a couple fights in the US once they won the belt Im sure plenty of Americans would be willing to fight in England.

no...american fighters are just better and american competition is much higher..and brits and other europeans wont accept it...if howard eastman fought more often against american middleweights he have 5 or 6 loses on his record

get one thing right first, it's not just fighters from the usa that are good, it's fighters from all over the world. if u look at the middleweights, they are mostly from other countries, not the usa. get ur statement right. all the best COMPETITION in over in the usa cuz all fighters from all over the world come over here to fight. british fighters need to do the same and come to the states.

I couldn't manage with Tyson-Williams (it was a work night) and fell asleep, only to wake up for the last thirty seconds. I'd taped it, but I was gutted... I bet it was really exciting to see it live.

Doesn't matter if they can't speak English, so long as they can throw down and bring a good fight.

Hey JPW long time no see. How's things going pal?

[THRILLAinmanila]

in which case we should see hundreds of US fighters coming over here too right?

Should be JPW. only I guess its the lure of the big bucks that keeps the big name fighters showing their wares in the US., esp. in las vegas where the boxing mafia resides ..

hi wez im good dude! Yourself? you have been quiet mate, covered the long skleton show for the bbn was a hoot, busy as all hell three weeks til i go on hols to singapore and oz, cant wait!

yip Mr storm, I agree but im not blind to that fact that america has the biggest and best scene in terms of global oxing, most fighters best quality etc etc this cant be denied, however i do get tired of constant arrogance as in every fighter who wants to be someone MUST go the the US, to an extent i agree but surely its healthy fo the game if we have an increased flow of fighters from both nations kinda cross pollinating you know!

Viv harris was a prime example he got half what he would have earned against hatton for fighting Urkal again and away from home in germany, that just didnt make sense to me, he cut his nose off to spite his face.

though i do think ricky should have gone to purse bids and whooped his ass for the trouble.

Agreed. I'd like to see Manny Pac and fight Scott Harrison over there in the near future. That would be a brawl that shouldn't be missed ! I hear Scott is a very good fighter.
