Do British fans have low standards?

[alexguiness]

Joshua has Nigerian heritage, but he is definitely a Brit. He was born and raised here.

Yes, you are correct.

But, if Nigeria had as much to offer him as the UK did...he be Nigerian.

nooooooooooooo lol read through these boards of Anthony Joshua threads, I think some of them are trolls tho. I don't deny ajs talent but some fans act as if hes the savior of boxing and I just don't see it.

If you aren’t willing to provide any evidence for your claim, don’t make the claim in the first place

My argument is that the consensus on AJ is that he’s the no.1 HW in the sport, but far from being seen as an ATG just yet. Unless you can provide any evidence to show otherwise

[techliam]

Calzaghe is definitely a great. But the last one we had was Carl Froch. He's a lock for HOF when the time comes.

Well, let’s make a distinction between a great, and a HOF’er.

Froch is no ATG. Even the man who beat him, Ward, struggles to claim that achievement.

Calzaghe is definitely debatable as to whether he’s an ATG.

The last one with a clear consensus is Lennox Lewis

Now give me the Americans and who they have fought?

Quite a list, you forget how many of our guys have stepped up

[LetOutTheCage]

Who has called Whyte elite? there are no elite fighters in the division so that's a bit weird.

I would love to know this also, havent seen a single person on here calling him elite. I agree there are no elite fighters in the division.

[SeGoodland]

It would be good to have a follow up thread to this; 'Do American's have a superiority complex?' or 'Now that the UK has the more World Champions, are Americans just bitter?'

[kidbazooka]

Yes they do

Very low standards I've said this before.
