    The only time I really saw hate towards the British though was when Tarver was schooling Woods. You could really sense the anger they had towards the Brits. Ofcourse a week later the Brits got revenge with Joes win over Hop .

    Any brit that was coming over for the Woods fight was just taking advantage of the currency situation IMO.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Really it's just small minorities on boxing forums.

    Hatton is one of the most POPULAR fighters in America. If he wasn't, he wouldn't be paid astronomical amounts to fight there

    They don't hate him personally, they hate his holding.

    I dont hate Hatton. He is a common man. I do however think his fans are rather crazy at times. But that shows passion. I wish they would stop booing the star spangle banner. Now Calzaghe on the other hand I could care less if he drank gas and tried to piss out a brush fire. I really disliked his fans at the Manfredo Jr fight do to the classlesness.

    I know some Hatton fans off board. Of course, they are not boxing addicts like us saddo folk.

    We seem to dislike Hatton when compared to his countrymen but he has fans here.

    I think americans do like hatton. I think what you see on this board is just a backlash against all the people who think Ricky Hatton is the greatest boxer ever.
