    I think any British fighter is annoying to American boxing fans simply because of the accents which Americans inherently think the British boxers are automatic busts and can't hold a candle to the slurring ******, incoherent American boxer. The British boxer sounds way too intelligent to be considered a legitimate threat. Even Golovkin sounds like a killer compared to British boxers for most American ears.

      The only fighters in the UK who fights at world level and are not annoying are Ricky Burns and Darren Barker. Both are absolutely class and down to earth.
      Watch the Gloves are off middleweights. Barkers acts like a twat there and thinks he owns the place.

        Well past that stage. I cannot stand him. To think I cheered him on against DeGale (another bellend).

          He's just a tad less annoying than Miley Cyrus and her "tongue" pose.

            I dont find him that annoying to be honest. Yes hes been moaning alot about the stoppage but if I was in his place or I bet if you was in his position and youd trained so hard all your life to earn that title shot and then you get a bogus loss on your record it would really make me angry. Also my personal opinion is that leading up to this fight Froch has treated Groves like hes not been worthy to share the same ring as him. Hes shown so much arrogance and pride and obviously pride comes before fall and clearly froch is on his way down now.

              He's a long way passed that.
