Did Any Brits attack any Eastern Europeans in the UK because of Wlad's win?

[generalbulldog]

Serious question. I'm thinking it's a strong possibility they would attacked some Eastern Europeans after a few beers and being angry that Wlad beat Haye. And from what I heard they are not liked in the UK and are one of the scapegoats of the country. I heard that they are the 2nd most hated group after South Asians.

So I'm thinking alcohol+sports+rabid nationalism+ one of their own defeated by an Eastern European=dangerous situation for innocent people.

And let's be honest there are crazy people out there that do this kind of stuff.

Not if they were as big as Wlad.

I was going to but i had a poorly toe

There really isn't much rabid nationalism regarding David Haye. Most people I know think he's a cock.

People get worked up about football, but not boxing. It's a marginal sport over here sadly.

There were bad vibes in Newcastle afterwords but there always is after a big fight... I don't think that Haye losing was anything to do with it though...

Every time a big fight is being watched in town you will get the typical egoistically challenged geordie shore rejects who need to reassure their ego by going and picking a fight.

Loads of extra police vans out in town likely in anticipation of it at certain spots where you know dick heads will flock to on a saturday night.

People taking to the streets over Haye's loss. Hilarious.

Speak for yourself! I'd say pretty much everyone i know was tuning into this fight and supporting Haye. This fight really got people excited, ashame the fight didn't live up to the hype.

What? Seriously?



Yeah, I went out & stabbed a Polish builder while my mate shot some Lithuanian bloke at Elephant & Castle tube station. Just you know because some boxer lost to another guy

Well you guys were rowdy and had a few fights in Vegas after the Mayweather-Hatton boxing match, I was in Vegas for the match and witness a few fights breaking out here and there. Not to mentioned the Pacquiao-Hatton fight had some of you guys getting into it with the Filipinos, although I wasn't there but a friend went and said it happened.

Then there is the image of British fans engaging in sports violence like football hooliganism. Hey it's not like I'm making things up about the British and sports violence.

SO just asking if some of you took it to heart, had a few beers, got angry that an Eastern European (in this case Wlad) took something that belong (the HW championship) to a native Briton (Haye) and hey shit happens as they say.

Really, that's odd I remember watching the Mayweather-Hatton fight in Lewisham with around a dozen other people all of us supporting Floyd. But apparently as some kind of Brit collective, I was kicking off fights in Vegas.

I actually had a thread about my experiences at Pacquiao/Hatton & how disgusted with the British fans I was. Brits travelling abroad generally completely embarass themselves & their country.

However, that's not what this is really about. You've been going on about how there will be excuses from all the Brits post-fight. When those haven't materialised (except for bell-ends like eric & otley), you've decided to ask pointless questions about if any Brits went & assaulted people on the basis of their ethnicity because of a boxing match. Canadians also have a habit of rioting when their teams lose, but I don't recall a thread asking if any of the Canadians went & beat up Mexicans when Lemieux lost to Rubio? Or if British or American tourists were being attacked on the occasions when Maidana & Matthysse lost to Khan, Judah & Alexander respectively? (The Argies love a good riot far more than us). Why not just admit that the British posters on THIS board are not as prone to excuses as you made out. Hatton fans might be, but they don't represent all British boxing fans.

Oh & the HW championship NEVER belonged to Haye. He had a belt. Wlad had & has the championship

Actually Canadians don't have a habit of rioting. They hardly have any riots and on the rare occasion they do, mainly it's limited to destroying public property. And Americans rioting? It sometimes happens with sports championships but it's mainly destruction of public property just like the Canadians than people getting beat up or something like that.

My question was legitimate if British fans got into fights after one of their own lost in vegas to Mayweather and Pacquiao, then it's not too far fetched to think they would get into fights after one of their own lost to Wlad.

Speaking of which did they get into fights with the Germans after the loss? But you know what? In the end it's just sports, nothing really serious, unless you're British.

When was the last time you heard of Brits actually rioting after losing at a sports event? Not something you saw in a movie, actually saw a news article about it. It doesn't happen very often at all. Canadians was about what 3 weeks ago? But, apparently they hardly ever riot

I didn't even mention Americans rioting, I mentioned Argentinians & your lack of interest in whether they were assaulting tourist when their fighters lost, and believe me they take sport a lot more seriously there. See the recent reaction to River Plate's relegation.

Brits get into fights if they're drunk & as I said, I was at Hatton/Pac & both sets of fans had aggressive & racist elements among them. You are again ascribing the actions of Hatton's fans to British fans on here. Also for very obvious reasons, rabid British nationalists would not feel as irked by Haye's loss to Wlad as they would by Hatton's defeats to Mayweather & Pacquiao.

Your question was not legitmate anyway. You didn't ask if there were fights afterwards in Hamburg. You asked if British people went & beat up people based on their ethnicity on the street. Whichever way you choose to spin it, that's one step from being a trolling thread.

I was a Butlins and about 2000 people plus of all types piled in to watch it in their sports bar.

All cheered Haye and booed Wlad.

After the fight I did not see any redcoats smashing in the guys from Khazactstan.

[Memphis]

I took to the streets and stabbed a French bloke. No one likes the French so no real harm done.
