Well done Welsh fans not booing US anthem

[leftylee]

Those weren't Welsh fans. Me and my mates all Welsh clapped the US anthem that night. Pity our friends from across the border didn't do the same.

Anyway the evidence is there - Welsh fans didn't boo at the Hopkins fight but English fans booed at the Hatton/Mayweather fight. Shame on them.

If they were not Welsh fans who were they ?? there was a welsh fighter involved and it was held in wales

How many Welsh fans went over to support their boy yesterday, 10,000 ?? Shame on you.

Hatton fans more than doubled that for the PBF fight and yet the Hatton fight was on the eve of Christmas when most people are saving money.

English support is well better that Welsh support.

No credibility in your arguement there. There were plenty of English fans at Joe's fight against Manfredo, I know cos they were the ones booing.

This topic is about the booing of a national anthem not a popularity contest between Calzaghe and Hatton and at the end of the day there are 50 million people in England and 3 million in Wales - so it is pretty bloody obvious who will have the bigger fan base.

How is English support better? - what a strange and inaccurate statement, Lee.

Not everybody in the UK likes Ricky Hatton whearas virtually all Welsh people LOVE Joe Calzaghe.

English support is better, fact, we took nearly 30,000 for Hatton/Floyd and you guys take a third of that, fact.

I don't need to argue, England ouclasses Wales when it comes to Boxing, David Haye recently proved that

Sorry Lee. You're ignoring the fact of proportional populational representation. With England's population of 50m and Wales slightly over 3m, 30,000 fans related with 8,000 dwarfs the english support proportionally.

And let's have a look at the number of Welsh champions against English champs proportionally over the past five years.

Or is it the ability of the English fans to boo throughout the American national anthem and disrespect their country that makes the England fans "better"?
