    I'm not taking anything away from Canadian boxing fans, they definitely have a great following, but this other clown said that American sports fans suck in everything other than American football. That is a ludicrously idiotic statement.

      Go to a College Football game at the Swamp, Death Valley, Autzen Stadium, or any of the larger more flamboyant venues and your opinion will quickly change.

        I thought Pascal was hatian and Bute Romanian?

        If adopted fighters are counted does that mean Alexis Arguello is American since he fought out of Miami his last years?

            thats because in America they always have fights in these big concert hall like venues...in Canada a lot of the time they just sit up a ring in a square and leave it at that.

            I remember for one of Bute's fights they had a buffet and girls dancing in cages while the card was going on...you cant really get away with that kind of stuff in a venue like MGM grand or whatever, lol.

            Its not that the fans arent into having a good time, American fans would love to do that kind of stuff...its just that the venues that theyre at dont really cater to a good event, its mostly just centered around the boxing match, and nothing else.
            as other posters said, you go to some less formal things like college football games and its a whole different kind of atmosphere.

            anyone know how much it costs to go to a high-ish level fight in Canada?

              I am playing, but this is a hate thread anyway. Pascal was born in haiti and Bute was born in Romania.

              The fight was close, and i wish the final 4 minutes played out, and Dawson blew it and Pascal took it. Hopefully we will get a rematch. When there is a rematch Pascal will be saying Bonn Nuit, A plus tard, and Au Revioir to his titles. Je Desole but that is what will happen.

                    Merci Beaux coupe Monsieur. LOL, u can tell i don't use online dictionary or wiki, i just go by my memory from taking Francais for three years. Just remember very basic stuff. I also even confuse my tagalog with portuguese as both share stuff to spanish, so when i am not taking spanish i tend to mix up stuff from tagalog and portuguese.
