A national anthem is irrelevant to a fight anyway. Patriotism and nationalism are vague jingoistic absurdities. It a guy against a guy. No world war.Originally Posted by SweetPea
They can boo as long as they like. They paid for the tickets. Nothing like a bit booing. National anthems are silly.

....Let me see someone boo the American National Anthem.....it'll be the last song they ever hear!
You don't have to sing along or anything but show some respect....I damn sure respect other countries....it's what everyone is taught as an American now, "Americans have to be nice to everyone".....well I draw the line at people who don't respect us back.

CC from me on that.....If I was at an event and someone BOOED the Anthem that would be a fight indeed!!!!!!
I would not disreaspect the Anthem of another country....And If I was next to one of my fellow Americans and they booed the Anthem of another country whil playing I sure as HELL!!!....Would Address it!!!!.....
I am all about good fun and a bit of teasing but that is blantant disrespect......
I also do not go with that Racial stuff either....
Same applies.....If I was next to someone and they started calling out Racial Slurs I would Address it....I don't care what Race or Nationality they are......
AS Wacko said there is no room for that in Boxing...ON this Form or anywhere else for that matter.....
And if there is any of it on this Form...Who Ever it is Will Be Banned from this Site ASAP

That's the same as saying someone from Arkansas is the same as someone from New York.
There are idiots in all walks of life and Hatton's travelling fans appear to fall into that category unfortunately. They booed the anthem because they are idiots, not because they are British.
If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

Football mentality probably but people just do it without thinking and it will always go on.
It's all done jokingly anyway and is impossible to stamp out.
I can promise all of you that it's not at all intended with any malice![]()
I apologize if anyone has mentioned this (i didn't have the will to look through 5 pages of posts), but during the Manfredo/Calzaghe bout the brits booed the US anthem.. i was amazed at the poor showing of class! I can understand being a fan of your fighter, but god damn, boo when the oppositions name is called.. not when the anthem of his country is being recited. complete disrespect.
Yep..I especially didnt like that particular event too..Originally Posted by RP33
Manfredo was man enough to fight the undefeated champ on his very own home turf with a solid packed out arena full of calzaghe fans and they didnt even grant him an undistrurbed respectful national anthem
Ridiculous really
Immortal Technique
I would be to if my whole country's army got there ass kicked by a colonial militia too.But I'm on the other side of the world. You Brits are classless Eur garbage. Just look at the Calzaghe Manfredo fight. Wales is close enough.Originally Posted by Nium

i don't stand up to my national anthem and the national anthems of other countries cause i'm a mindless sheep, i stand up to my national anthem because i have pride of my country and i show respect to others and that have the same pride for their respective countries, but well maybe you don't think about thatOriginally Posted by Missy
When i was at the Calzaghe/Lacey fight there was some idiots a couple of rows up booing and saying some racial stuff from the min lacey appeared. As a Brit and a boxing fan i was really offended and deeply dishearten at there dishonourable behaviour. I had come to support Joe as much as the next supporter, but i was also looking forward to getting to see Lacey in action. For a minute there i thought i had walked in to a BNP rally.
I am up for a bit of friendly banter an Jibes as the next person but there are lines you dont cross out of respect for a human being never mind which sport its in.
I dont pay much attention to my own national anthem but i dont disrespected those that do. I wish i could feel that patriotic but they would only tax me on that too.Each to there own as some one once said.
