    Default Chav boxer

    Who is the chaviest boxer today?

    A chav is a term that is used in the United Kingdom to describe a stereotype of young adults from an underclass background. They often don designer sportswear and brand names. Many chavs often wear a full tracksuit or tracksuit bottoms, with a hoodie or polyester jacket, baseball cap and over sized trainers.

    Well he's not British but Vernon Paris is kind of Chav-like.

    It's difficult because a Boxer like any other athelete has a pretty good excuse for always wearing a tracksuit:-)

    Is Tyson Fury and his crew considered chavvy or is he just considered a straight-up gypo?
    I am usually quite tolerant and understanding of people's different backgrounds and upbringings but at the Fury-Mcdermott fight his family/friends were acting like complete and utter scumbags. They even threw something into the ring while their man was getting his ass whooped. Security were too shit scared to remove them..

    I'm trying to think of others..I'm sure there are absolutely loads as most boxers come from that kind of background..and being that I'm in the middle of East London/Essex, I'm quite shocked I can't think of any..

    I love the way you word your post Master Its as if you are David Attenborough narrating a nature documentary.. "These urban youths often don track suits and come from lower class backgrounds, many gravitating towards combat sports as a means of supporting their offspring. Fiesty little creatures indeed!"

    How brilliant would that be though; to have the BBC do a documentary on gypsys or another sub human populus in the style of Planet earth

    Thankyou for explaining what a CHAV is.
    Remember reality is an illusion caused by a lack of alcohol .

    Its been a word (charva) used to describe a certain type of scumbug in newcastle for at least the 25 years I've been alive. Since about 2004 some southern twats in the media bastardised it as 'chav' (charv is short for charva... 'chava' sounds retarded) and it's spread.

    I don't think Charva is classist. You can be middle class and behave like a charv... It's an attitude and behaviour which over generations makes these people end up as being sub class, but to pair charv and working class together is an insult to working class. We actually WORK. Working class people are were they are because of situation... Charvs are where they are because they are lazy, self serving, ignorant individuals with a massive sense of entitlement and no work ethic - which is why you will not find a single charva make it to a high level in boxing.

    Charvas don't have what it takes to hold a part time job down... How are they gonna box?

    Hulk that guy has a track suit. Doesn't make him a charva. The guys bickering and slapping his girl could wear armarni suitsn they'd still be charvas

    Look at Adam GB definition, running is too hard work for a chav, they would never do that.
