Everyone knows Americans are the best at boxing always have been ALWAYS will be. ;D Come on ROY!!!!:usa:
I can understand rooting for a British fighter over a fighter from another country. Same goes for the World Cup. It is the same reason I root for the Lakers or the Dodgers or you root for Tottenham or Manchester United. I get it. It is not really me for the most part, but I get it.
For the posters who knowingly choose to root for British fighters against other fighters, do you also prefer European fighters over fighters from the rest of the world (including the US)? Would you root for a German boxer against an American boxer most of the time?
p4p based on population you are quite a way down the pecking order :cool:Quote:

HENRY COOPER. That is a cut.
Definitely not, if I based my support on nationality alone I'd feel more allegiance to the US fighter. Same language, culture, TV shows, music etc etc. We're like long lost cousins....Quote:

I'm English first, British second. Nothing else third.
As for the whole US - UK rivalry thing. I think that just gets amplified more on this forum. As the majority of posters here are either American or British it stands to reason our nationalities are bought into most arguments...
