****** Question

[Larry the boss]

America has some of the worst boxing fans, they are not loyal and will turn their back on a fighter in a second..

[Pigeons]

Football
Cricket
Tennis
Rugby League and Union (technically two sports)
Golf
and I guess horse racing with the Grand National

It's still pretty niche though. We have the popular names, but its not the same as being a popular sport. I'm tempted to add Formula 1 in there, but i'm not too sure

Soccer, cricket, rugby union, rugby league, golf, tennis, maybe horse racing and F1. I count 6-8.

In America, football, baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer, college football, college basketball, NASCAR, golf, tennis. That's 10 without a doubt. After that, you can argue until your face turns blue. Horse racing and MMA have a very good argument. Obviously we have a lot more people than you, but boxing barely exists. If it wasn't for the internet, it wouldn't exist.

Please name 9 sports more popular than boxing in the UK.

you can look up individual lists for both but there's a side by side

"Football" and "college football" are not two different sports.

That's like saying WBA, WBC and AIBA are all different "sports".

College football and basketball shouldn't count as separate sports. Thats bizarre. Theres really not much difference. The breaks are different, and I think the shot clock etc is different for basketball, but they are roughly the same sport just slightly different administrations. With Rugby League and Union, most of the rules are different, the teams are different, the countries who participate are different. The only things the same are the rugby ball, and a field, which is also a different size, lol.

Boxing is niche in both countries, we're just more passionate about it here (or it seems so) because a lot of the big fights are in home stadiums like last night. Another thing worth noting about UK sports though, is what I like to call the 'sport lad culture' - where you're a 'sports fan', you get little tidbits of all the popular sports going around, much like ESPN tries to do, but it seems a lot more successful here. Its emphasised a lot more when betting companies here have practically taken over, and have started to popularise being a general sports fan as opposed to single sports. Boxing obviously gets a lot of exposure this way. At the end of the day, talent pools come and go.

Well other than my hesitance to add Formula 1, I was pretty spot on. Not bad considering I only really watch Boxing and Snooker, lol.
