    I disagree with Jones/Hopkins 2 being "disappointing", because their first fight was absolutely unwatchable so I'm not sure why anyone was expecting anything more from the 2nd fight.

    Biggest disappointment (for me at least) was Tyson/Lewis. After all the buildup, to see Tyson look like utter shit and get destroyed so easily was really disappointing.

    tyson/lewis was a massive anti climax all things considering

    1st round was fun, after that it just turned into a beating. Lewis should of had him out of their after 4rds, absolutely no need to continue the punishment

    khan-barrera was also a big fuk off anti climax. Honestly thought we were in for a classic scrap, the cut ruined what could of been a great fight

    for me these spring to mind :

    Haye v Valuev was a bore.

    Tyson v Boneclutcher promised fireworks and was awful.

    Leonard v Duran 3 was a joke.

    Khan v Prescott , i really thought prescott could have got khan out of there earlier.

    in recent memory id like to say audley v haye was disapointing, but i knew it was gonna happen

    hatton v pac was disapointing, but just coz of the mannor in which our boy was taken appart

    moore v picarillo was a bit disapointing, all my mates was round mine, full fridge of beer expecting a barnstormer as most of moores at that level were and it was an easy night

    froch v dirrell
    Oh look, all fights involving British fighters. I'd never have guessed.

    i like watching fights involving non british fighters but i find it hard to get excited about them so at the same time wouldnt get as disapointed if one didnt deliver

    that ok?

    element of truth in that

    stayed up till silly o`clock watching cotto-mayorga hoping somewhere in the fight mayorga could put a dent in cottos armour just to make it interesting. But at the end of the night i wouldnt of been dissapointed to of seen any fighter win/lose as i would be if it was a brit involved

    Nationality doesn't really have any bearing with me.

    British or not.

    It's all to do with talent and/or personality.

    Alvarez vs Hatton, I stayed up for, but was rooting for Alvarez. More exciting fighter, more to offer, Hatton bores me.

    do you cheer on your national side?

    unless the fighter is an utter prick of naz/anthony small proportions i find it all but impossible to cheer against a fellow countrymen

    As a United fan, and the amount of shit that England has brought our players, I am not England's biggest fan. Never want them to lose (in major tournaments anyway) but not passionate about them at all. Why should I cheer on players I genuinely don't like - the same with British boxers? Why should I cheer on someone just because they're British? Even if they are total bellends? I shouldn't.

    Yeah, it's still there mate.

    Anyway, I am a fan of the majority of British boxers anyway. There's only a couple of exceptions. Everyone is different.

    i am a united fan from salford and the united v england thing is only there with bellends unfortunately

    the real united fans cheer on the national side as much as they do their club side

    i had a discussion with a couple of "united fans" on another forum, all this united>england bollox just before the world cup, shocking attitude

    mind you they were from peterborough or somewhere, says it all
