    I'm not into Euro boxing. Am I wrong for that?

    This isn't a discriminatory thing, but I just can't get into European boxing.

    Why is that, and is anyone else like me?

    You probably just hate the accents since I'm sure you watch the streams. And I don't know how you can't, these Euros put on great shows and are tough men.

    A lot of what American fighters lack is the toughman show, the worse part about American fighters is when they truly believe in their ring finesse when in actuality they stink up the place when they don't have P4P skills.

        Good European cards have fighters from everywhere, boxing is a global sport after all.

        I think you're probably just following the guys who are promoted on the channels available in your area so you're not as familiar with some other names.

          All the good ones are from East Europe like the Klitchko's, GGG, Kovalev, Prov

          The fighters in the UK suck now except for Froch and Fury

              I think it comes down to this, and the fact that I was always brought up on American boxing.

              Even if a European fighter in on HBO or Showtime, I just skip it or just tune out and play on my phone until the next fight.

              Again, this is in no way, shape or form how I feel about European people or European countries.

              It's just with boxing.

              I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS!

                I haven't watched a Klistchko fight in the longest time.

                GGG is my guy.

                Even with Kovalev, I hear about him 24/7 on this site, but I still can't muster up the energy to care.

                  So you skip Kovalev, Froch, Golovkin?
