why are British fighters such cowards....

[aldo5408]

Brook is arguably the best welterweight.

Time the Thurmans, Spences, Garcias, etc stopped ducking him.

Garcia of course prefers to fight Rod Salka rather than take on a challenge.

Add another coward to your countries list. Billy Joe

The UK has made a big comeback recently but I still think bumbeater brook is more of a burden to their image than an asset

I will say that Brook needs a big fight for his own mental sanity. He appears to feel the criticism and is chasing a big name.

Never been a fan of his, but I will give him another year for my verdict.

As for the UK, I will agree that the belts are half held hostage, but then I don't see fighters from other nations offering good enough money either.

Either come to the titlist country or offer them a lot of money to get out.

Alllllllll Eddie hearns fault I think....
Fighters are fighters, as much as we say ooooo this person is ducking whoever, doesn't matter, its the promoters and people behind the scenes who are pulling the strings.

If Eddie"sunbed" Hearn can make a ****load of money off "prospects" fighting journeymen, and his boxers being carefully managed to a world title and then protected and kept in the UK to defend them, then why would he risk another ppv??

Some people think Eddie Hearn is great...i think he is a parasite for boxing!

Sorry but Hearn i doing what Haymon is doing.


Get title shots, help fighters get decent to big money, fill arenas and pay decent money to fight bums here and there.

I mean all promotions do it.

Canelo has fought Hatton's brother to Lopez, Khan etc
Pac Algieri
Danny Garcia Salka
Broner Gavis Rees...

everyone fights bums.
