Originally posted by soul_survivor View PostThe atmosphere at British fights is second to none and we've produced some of the best heavies in recent years, have historically produced the best super middleweights, still have a strong ppv scene (I personally dislike ppv but it shows the financial strength of boxing in this country) and we currently have 12 or so world champs, 4 of which are regarded almost unanimously as THE MAN in their division with a further 2 who are not quite unanimous but in the argument.
If we wana go the whole US v UK road then let's be honest, the US only have TC at 140 as the best. At 154 an argument can be made but it's pretty wide open atm. That's pretty sad for a country with the highest number of professionally certified fighters on the planet.

Perhaps if the US had UK-style policing we wouldn't have to read all these threads crying about the evil "popo" killing black people.

LOL, P4P Britain is THE best country in Boxing right now.
HW is ruled by the Brits for the most part.
CW has Bellew as Champ.
SMW has DeGale as the main man.
MW has BJS as a champ.
WW has Brook as champ.
the list goes on.
Brits are passionate, look at the U.S crowd at these events, they absolutely SUCK.

Originally posted by 1hourRun View PostOur best have a far greater resume than most if not all Brits historically and presently speaking...not one of your fighters have a better resume than Ward,Crawford,Garcia,Bradley,...you guys cant find one person to beat the Charlos or Andrade even our middleweight Danny Jacobs is over any of your middleweights....not one of your superfeather weights can touch Mikey Garcia...and you all know this...keep trying to fool the public...real boxing fans know the truth.
You're stuck in the past bro, hanging hopes on over the hill fighters, unproven prospects and never weres. Boxing is only heading one way in the US and the opposite way in the UK.
Most acknowledge that, although I suppose there are a few left who are yet still too proud to admit it.Last edited by Weebler I; 08-10-2016, 08:24 PM.
