Booing National Anthems

Over recent years I have been to a number of matches involving the England footy team, home and away and I always cringe when the opposing country has their National Anthem disrespected like events MrDK has described at the Mayweather, Hatton fight.
I just can not see any good that can possibly come from this shameful behaviour especially while you are a guest in the vocally offended country.

I wonder if the English football fans made much noise during the Russian National Anthem over in Moscow seven weeks ago.

Also, Mayweather showed his class a few hours after the fight by saluting the English fans. Perhaps he never heard the jeers for the US anthem.
