    What are the most biased CITIES in boxing?

    In the UK it has to be Liverpool.

    They hype their fighters up all the time but never really have any decent fighters.

    What about other countries?

    In America from what I can see it has to be phillidelphia

    All the posters on here from philly only ever post in threads about fighters from philly, and how awesome they are. If it doesn't involve philly they aren't interested.

    I don't agree at all what you are saying about Liverpool. We hype up our fighters? I assume you mean David Price. Other than that we have some great amateurs coming up and have had some great amateurs throughout the years.

    I agree about philly.

          Well David Price was ridiculously hyped up, coming our to "you'll never walk alone " to a red ring with a military band, when all he was fighting was domestic has-beens, and all the talk about liverpools first heavyweight champ, it was pretty bad, I've not seen anything so absurd for a long time.

          Tony bellew is another one who has a huge fanbase solely because he's from Liverpool.

          What about the Smith brothers?

            So what if he does that? That has nothing to do with hype, but you can like it or not. He was Liverpool's first British Heavyweight champion. Let's see what happens in the future. Other big guys have been knocked out and come back from it: Lennox, Wlad, Foreman, Vitali, Holyfield, Tyson to name but a few.

            I agree to a certain extent about Bellew. I'm not sure he has it in him.

            I think everyone knew that especially Paul was never going to proceed beyong domestic level. I think Callum is potentially a good fighter. He was a good amateur. I like Liam as well.

            Stephen was never my cup of tea.

                    That's fine, but I've seen a lot of posters on here make an average-good fighter from Philly out to be the best thing ever happened.
