Well without trying to sound ignorant I have heard many Americans refer to the Barclay center in Brooklyn as Deontay’s backyard. Probably because he has fought there many times and even when he doesn’t fight he regularly attends fights there. Yet it is a 4 hour flight from New York to Alabama. Los Angeles to Alabama is actually only a 3 hour flight so is it totally ******ed for European fans to suggest Wilder has home advantage fighting in either location?
When Deontay went over to Ireland U.K. fans were not crying when Deontay fans were suggesting Wilder went into AJ ‘s backyardLast edited by Noelanthony; 01-29-2019, 06:43 AM.Comment

Plenty fair bud and no I didn't mean to suggest y'all're ****** for believing what you reckon. I just meant Europeans tend to tell me about America rather than listen to any of us.
Had either man went to Russia would any consider that backyard? Even if it's Josh and we're talking the European side of Russia?
Of course not, because Russians don't much care for US or UK and it's pretty far away.
1700 miles from London to Moscow
Just because we are one nation does not mean we can't have strong cultural barriers.
LA is 2000 miles from Birmingham. What's the chances in all that land everyone gets along?
Is there anywhere in Europe that can claim they have a 2k mile long radius of favorable cultures? Everyone within the next 2000 miles sees you as one of them? That's a joke right?
Exactly my point my man. It's a joke here too. We're a big nation. Think of us more like the EU and less like the UK because once you're covering that amount of land there is just no way to make everyone get along.
North and South, rivalry, unless your black. Then they're buds.
East and West, rivalry, unless your a ***. Then they're buds.
The history of race in America explains both.
Texas vs Tennessee is a pretty damn old one for us that centers around cowboy culture vs hillbilly culture. Basically those Hollywood scenes with cowboys fighting in bars never ****in' happened in the west because the west is *******. We did that in Tennessee and ******ia. We are country strong, they're ****in horse riding cow chasers and ain't nothing more. Hell ima get myself worked up.
As far as Americans not explaining, hell I myself have been complacent with the British narrative for our nation. You guys are very vehement folk, even when you ought not to be, and we live here. Ain't no one got time to argue with brits over what it's like in America. Just like how you probably wouldn't argue too long if I started telling you about Welsh folk and how they get along with Scots while both are visiting England. You might correct me but if I come back at you hard would you care or just laugh? Ain't no one got time for that **** right?Comment

Could not agree more. It's a sad state of things.
Yeah, I use Dixie often that way youse will learn the term. Yankees live in the north. In the south the land is called Dixie and the folks are called Rebs.
Do you really want me to explain American history?
I mean I will, but, I think you actually want Youtube bubba. it'd be more entertaining and much quicker than reading one of my long as **** history posts.Comment
