I am a long time boxing fan who lives in New Mexico USA and I pick my favorite boxers by how they fight in the ring and conduct themselves in and out of the ring. What country they live in or are from makes no difference to me.I don't think boxing is dying in the USA. Spence, Crawford and Mikey are all top 10 pfp boxers and the UK has nobody in the top 10 pfp unless you include AJ and I don't. Great boxers from other countries like Cuba and Russia relocate to the states and not the UK to train and fight. Las Vegas, not London, is the boxing capitol of the world. I have nothing against UK boxers and like some of them a lot but I think what I have said is fact.
When did boxing become US V UK?

Where have you been the last hundred years? There’s always been national pride.Seems like after the Floyd v pac argument current groups going at it is Americans v the brits when did this happen? I remember everyone pretty much unanimously agreeing that Wilder was awful, Joshua was a big stiff idiot with some potential and the fact that boxing is the second biggest sport in the UK which is a pretty big market was a good thing. When did it become about patriotism? Why are American fans even acting like they care about the sport it’s dying a death over here. Isn’t it better if Hearn comes over and brings some success? I saw nothing but hatred for Haymon last year now Hearn is the new villain?
As far as promoters. There all sleazy.Comment

I think the UK resurgence in boxing was what started it and the jealousy peaked when we had most world champions than any other country.
Personally I don't hate any American fighter, even Wilder. I actually like the guy and think he is good for the sport. It is his fans that are completely delusional and unbearable.Comment

Who are these top Americans who beat the top Brits most of the time?I guess you missed that Part, you guys get a Hard On over a UK guy beating a D Level American it is HILARIOUS actually. While Americans will really don't care much about what is going on over in the UK for the most part. Nobody BRAGS about Maurice Hooker beating Terry Flanagan in fact most Americans thought he would lose
I stand on my Original Post 1000% when the VERY BEST match up between USA vs UK, the Americans tend to come out on top more
I know it hurts for some people but again this is PRIDE, PRIDE distorts some people reality, they want things to be in their favor so bad that they will stretch and twist the truth
As an American you're talking about pride?? If only you understood irony you wouldn't come close to writing this level of ****. Americans are overly proud to the point of nauseous. I consider you lot as being psycho nationalists. So you got that backwards as well.Comment
