    He is because he appears on SKYSPORTS on a regular basis. They practically use to follow him around over here.

      I can only speak for people i know, but a lot of lads i know who are Mayweather fans don't actually watch anyone else bar Mayweather.

      The ones i know who watch boxing regulary tend to appreciate both fighters.

        Mayweather has a huge UK following.

        This was back in 2009

          The ones that don't is because he's an arrogant American.

            but why the British?
            lol wut?

            most brits i know love and support mayweather. Brits like the flashy, brash, contrarian personality because they would like to live that way in fantasy but are the complete opposite in real life, while at the same time railing against all things american.

            just look at your avi TS, brits loved hamed and his flashy persona for the same reason.

              Hamed had more haters than fans, STFU until you know what you're talking about.

                Hamed was massive because Brits loved his brash conceited personality, it was a way to live vicariously through them because most brits are reserved and proper.

                Haters are fans. Do try to keep up.

                  Mayweather is more renown and supported in the UK. The thread starter didn't do his homework.
