    Yankee Stadium
    Held fights?
    Yes
    The Spectrum in Philly
    Held fights?
    Yes
    List could go on endlessly
    Yes
    If there are more fighters,and more venues that can hold fights,sooner or later you will fight in the States
    Fenster wants exclusion of every fighter who's fought in the states,well guess where the money is,in the states

    i think UK can create their own P4P list... why bother US P4P list if you don't agree with it.. Lets get real here, lots of big fights happen in america, im not saying happening only in america. If you dont fight in US how are they going to rate you? same goes to UK and other countries. So go on create your UK P4P myth list nobody is going to stop you guys anyway.. stop this America bias crap..
    Spot on. It is mostly BASED on the fights that happen in the US. IMO it would be a such a big honor to be in the list if you haven't even fought here. Pongsalek, Calzaghe.. to get the recognition was great. Must have been making enough noise to be heard in the US. and it's fukkin true you Brits can create your own list. But it will only sound more biased if you won't put 'American based' fighters in the list and instead put Chris John in it. I was wonderin if this thread was actually made for Chris John.

    I think I'm going in circles here but anyway Fens. I just think it's like saying "Why are the majority winners of the Best Pic. at the Oscars" most often American films then foreign films... Well I don't know you tell me?
    and why does the NBA call their champs the World Champs if the teams were only American and Canadian based cities? It's because basketball,(like boxing) is a worldwide sport and the NBA is an open league which means any player of any nationality can play if they were skilled enough for the big stage. It only happened that the NBA is american based and the venues happens in American cities. Do they deserve to call themselves the best in the world? Yes. Just like boxing. The best fighters fight here and the best fights happens here. And the Ring, they just tell America what they think and what they feel. It just happens that you Brits can hear it too. sorry
