I would put good money on number of posters not knowing who Bruno, Benn and Eubank were.
Which retired British boxer do you respect the least?

Maybe in your backyard, but nobody gave a **** about him over here. His big "coming out" fight against a 300 year old Kevin Kelly where he got dropped twice made alot of people lose interest. Some guys named Marco Antonio Barrera and Erik Morales made people interested in the little guys.Comment

HBO seemed quite interested in him?Maybe in your backyard, but nobody gave a **** about him over here. His big "coming out" fight against a 300 year old Kevin Kelly where he got dropped twice made alot of people lose interest. Some guys named Marco Antonio Barrera and Erik Morales made people interested in the little guys.
People lost interest after the fight of the year against Kelley? Righto...
Barrera and Morales are ATG's, Hamed is not. However, Hamed brought all the glamour and attention to the lower weight classes whether you wanna accept it or not.Comment

British Boxing is the minor leagues. I am still disgusted by the fight when Kostya knocked out Hatton with a body shot and the ref called it a low blow and gave him time to recover, and let him maul the poor ba$tard all night. At least Pricky had the balls to challenge himself against the best, and all it got him was a close up of the roof of the MGM grand. Boy is more faimliar with the roof of the MGM grand than the architect. British Boxing is the minor leagues.Comment

Boy got undressed by MAB, I guess he disputed Naz's undisputedness. Brits kill me man, when you post a list of the retired british boxing contributors and a frank bruno and chris eubank is on it, its disgraceful and shameful. Over 100 yrs of boxing history and those guys are talked about? Then, Naz gets completely embarrassed by MAB and Brits still thinks he is about something. Cold world we live in.Comment

Im curious to know how you think a fight described by Larry Merchant as "The Featherweight Hagler-Hearns" turned off American audiences....Maybe in your backyard, but nobody gave a **** about him over here. His big "coming out" fight against a 300 year old Kevin Kelly where he got dropped twice made alot of people lose interest. Some guys named Marco Antonio Barrera and Erik Morales made people interested in the little guys.Comment
