Boos for national anthems are disgraceful

[southakron314]

I won't defend the booing but it was probably in retalliation from the Hatton fans booing Mayweathers (the US) National Anthem. Two wrongs don't make a right, but I can tell you that if I were drunk and had the opportunity to hear my "boo's" heard on national TV in retalliation, then i would ..

To be honest, i've never heard a national anthem boo'd until the mayweather/hatton fight. I don't want to hear that they're booing the fighter. It is the COUNTRIES national anthem. It's about sportsmanship. The boo's should take place when the fighter is walking towards the ring, and/or when his name/record is being announced. That is the time to boo the fighter for personal reasons. Not the country he is from.

But were all those fans American or consider themselves American? It's not Jennings fault that many Hatton fans are fine troop of drunken imbeciles barely capable of doing anything constructive to the wider world or even themselves. If someone wanted to retaliate they should of at least done it to Hatton at the Malignaggi fight.

There is no defense to classlessnes and no reason for it or to make exucesses for it.
