Am torn as a Brit living in N America

[Ray*]

I think it depends on the demographics around you. I know for a fact that people of latino heritage are more into boxing in america than anyone else.

[ΣNΣMY]

We have football, baseball, hockey, and basketball.

He said N America which means he lives in Canada.

Lol @ people who think "self centered" is an insult. When you call someone that it only tells them that they are at the top of the food chain and you are (bitterly) looking up.
Notice it's you guys always talking about us. Not the other way around.

What makes you think you're always being talked about?

[HURTFEELINGS]

America is more racist than it lets on......they elected someone who said the racists in charlottesville "fine people", his attorney for years (who know him better than YOU) says he'g a racist....this guy is going to jail for him. Dont let the propaganda fool you, read these comments carefully, thats how americans feel.....we are NOT UNITED states

[Fabes88]

You have boxing and soccer.

We have basketball, football, baseball, and then also hockey, golf, tennis and soccer to a lesser extent.

Boxing is just not a mainstream sport here like it is in the UK.

Lmao why do you guys constantly say this despite Brit’s telling you otherwise at least once a week. Boxing is probably the 5th or 6th biggest sport here.

We have football, baseball, hockey, and basketball.

You do realize that in Europe they show WAY more sports on TV than it North America?

They show all the ones you mentioned, + double that. With cycling, handball, more fight sports oh and I forgot to mentioned soccer.

Why don't you just admit that its a cultural thing.

What is bigger? To what do you attribute the gulf in support between boxing in the US and the UK?

I don't even watch anything here except golf, soccer, tennis and boxing but the truth here is that boxing is clearly a secondary or tertiary sport here in the US.

[LetOutTheCage]

People are BOXER Fans here not BOXING Fans! Only care when certain fighters are fighting and that is it!

Tbh that is the same in the UK generally, though I think there are a lot more boxing casuals in the US.

And for people saying they have other sports in the US...Boxing is the 10th most popular sport in the UK, where as it's the supposedly the 6th most popular sport in the US

In England rugby,cricket, horse racing, tennis and f1 more popular. We just have some fighters that are extremely popular. The difference is because we are passionate and really get behind our top stars especially the ones that do well. It’s really not a case of us having much else to do. Boxing barely gets any coverage in national papers. Maybe they’ll talk about it twice a week at best

Soccer, Rugby Union, Cricket, Formula 1, Tennis and others. Boxing is a niche sport here in the UK
