    B. Have family and boxing connections(amateur and professional) across England,and yes many in east and south London.

      Well i'm also

      A. BRITISH

      B. I HAVEN'T MET ANYONE WHO DOESN'T LIKE FLOYD,

      so i guess we're on opposite sides then, if you're talking about the white football yobs who support Hatton? yes maybe they'd want to see Floyd get beat, if you're talking about the black british community? THERE'S NO WAY IN HELL THEY'LL SUPPORT PAC OVER FLOYD.

        I know as many people in the black community as the white,you donut!

        WTF is it with these Mayweather stans alway playing the race card? Stop with that **** you thick racist ****! Are you really gonna do black people down that badly by trying to make us believe that they are so insular that they couldnt appreciate a fighter of another colour?

        F.uck out of here with that bull****!

          Piss off you prat, i was just breaking down the dynamics of the british boxing community, you tried to play the "i'm british" card like you can ****ing talk for all brits, shut your misguided pie hole, you only have to look at Hatton and Froch's fans, the ones who turn up at the weigh-ins and the fights, it's 99% WHITE FOOTBALL FANS!!, and that's a ****ing fact, you might know "one or two black people" but guess what? I'M FROM THE DAMN BLACK COMMUNITY you ****head, so who knows more? you? LOL don't make me laugh, i'm not saying black brits don't support fighters of other races as Hatton has black fans himself but what i'm saying is Floyd is a hero in the black british community and will be supported without doubt when he faces Pac, what's so hard to understand about that? oh i get it, it's not painting a picture of "everyone hating Floyd" that's why!!, GROW UP.

            Probably the opposite. The fact that Ricky was kinda in the Mayweather fight early on made it harder to take when he eventually lost. The Pac fight was over in the first round - quick and painless!

            I'd probably support Pac but I'd pick Mayweather and already have bets on Mayweather....so its a bit of a dillema

                I'm British and im rooting for pac!! EASILY!

                I may be british but im a boxing fan at the end of the day.....

                Whether they beat a british fighter or not, aint gonna stop me supporting them

                Pac is 1 of a kind, floyd is in a sense to except hes money hungry, and dont care about his fans....he acts like he does...and they buy it, but he dont....

                Its like having a chick that u say u love 2 her, u fk other girls, she finds out but she just keeps coming back...

                Pac fights for his fans and for his country....and his legacy!!!

                Thats why im going for him!

                  Also Brit fans tend to be more appreciative of the opposition. You'll see football teams getting spanked 5-0 at home and the fans will applaud the opposition players.

                      Roger Mellie and I rarely agree on anything but I think Floyd being a **** is one of the few things we do.
