I don't agree with you mate boxers are individuals with a individual style and we become fans of them because of these styles or personality not because of where they come from. I don't like Joe because i don't like his style or personality so whether he is from Britain or not i won't cheer for him i was a fan of Mike Tyson and i liked Lennox Lewis who is British but i still rooted for Tyson and didn't root for my countryman i rooted for my favourite of the 2.
Like I said in my post above, I support loads fighters from overseas, infact nearly all my boxing heroes are not British, but hero or not I would want them to lose if they were fighing a Brit. Just the way I'm built, no right or wrong answer on this one, guess it's just about how much pride you have in your country
So you can honestly say if any of your favourite fighters worldwide was fighting any British fighter you would be rooting for the British fighter?
