Why are British fans so much better than any other fans??

[Dirk Diggler UK]

not trying put you guys down but you do realize unlike UK which only is big on boxing and football and thats about it.

US doesnt care about boxing as much.

theres basketball, american football, baseball, even hockey. goto a sold crowd at either of those sport stadium and tell me whos more passionate. ull be surprised hockey fans can be very passionate. so in boxing MAYBE u guys have passionate fans, but i bet you hispanic fighter and pacs fanbase can certainly rival you guys.

so its not about race, its mostly whos race is interested more, and US has alot of options so they dont stick to just soccer and boxing.

simple as that.

Sheer ignorance. Boxing is nowhere near on the same level of popularity as football. There are several sports which are bigger than boxing here. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about

Exactly right!
In Europe formula 1 is big (especially in england), but here in the USA, F1 will not make money. There are 50 states, almost all states has 1 or 2 major racetracks. Formula 1 race here is just like another friday night race in local track.

Racetrack in europe are scarce, one event in a year that's all they can take.
They are all shouting and flag waving zhyte.

They attemted many times to bring the F1, but always a failure.

Classic

That was uploaded to youtube last year. It didn't happen last year. You obviously typed in 'soccer riot' in youtube and saw it was uploaded last year and presumed it happened last year.

LOL @ "I remember this one from last year"

It happened like 15 years ago.

You're hilarious.

There would not be a riot over Boxing in this country because Hatton lost a fight. It's simple as that.

Boxing is not a big sport in England, it's behind Football, rugby, tennis, cricket so that's not why, i would say we are generally more passionate people....

The ignorance on this thread is staggering.

your a funny dude mister diggler.

the "its football fans" excuse is quite pathetic. But thats to be expectd fromamericans who dont follow football.

Its weird as hell, cause look at the southern district of germany, Schalke, bayern and dortmund. They have some really vocal fans, but it doesnt transcend over to boxing.

Im gonna take a wild guess here, without knowing it, but i wouldimagine that poland is a crazy place aswell.

Here in denmark we have the same attitude, as you brits, or atleast close to. But it has to be a somewhat big event.

The Atmosphere at the Froch vs Kessler fight looked ****in Electric and when Tyson was over u guys seemed to really get into it, Denmark looks good to me man

Most of the Brits do it for the Banter, me and my pal at the Hatton vs Tzyu fight were shouting at the Aussie lads "Ur Only Singing For a Russian!" and they took it like champs, we had a good laugh slagging each other and Brits always try to intimidate away fighters to give their own man the edge nothing wrong with that at all. Get pissed up, sing songs, have a laugh, support ur fighter and enjoy the fight - How it should be!

rangers fans in manchester,west ham v millwall cup game

I forgot those to be honest.

To be fair though, there isn't that many at all anymore.

And there certainly wouldn't be one over a Boxing match.
