    Brits have a primal fear of people coming to their nation and trying to blow things up

    Is it not a natural reaction to be cautious of the caliphate seekers?

        what does ''cheating'' have to do with Ward's association to looking like actors; Colin Farrell, Pierce Brosnan, or Gabriel Byrne?
        They're all Irish and none of them could beat Kovalev in a fair fight.

          US doesn't formally recognize Dual Citizenship

          They don't really care - enter with either passport and you'll be treat accordingly, even despite the oath...

          Its a great system if its a US passport you want, though really nowadays its becoming less relevant

            Someone once called Vasyl Lomachenko, "The Ukrainian 'Pretty Boy' Kelly".

              If you are born in the US you'll get a passport regardless of other nationalities associated with you.

              Call that what you will, I call it dual citizenship.

                Well we basically own 168 for now with Degale, Groves, Eubank, Smith

                Frampton still near the top of his division. Also Selby a belt holder and a contender in Warrington.

                AJ the no.1 HW in the world, Fury lineal on the comeback trail.

                BJS in a sink or swim soon vs LEmiuex

                Ryan Burnett unified belt champ at Bantam (though I doubt he would want to be called British)

                People always calling the end of British boxing. "What will we do when X,Y and Z leave or lose?"

                Then the next gen comes through and we stay about in the same place. A smattering of contenders through the divisions. Normally a few 'proper' belt holders (ones who are actually good), plenty of paper belt holders and maybe 1 or 2 legit champs.

                One thing I will say is our domestic scene is thriving right now with two big name promoters both with major tv deals, plus two terrestrial TV stations putting on shows in ITV and Channel 5 (although ITV do more PPV than anything).
