When we were at school it was compulsory to learn Geography, and in those formative years we learned where countries were and what their capital cities were. It appears that some high profile sportsman and broadcasters may need to go back to basics.
SBS broadcaster Les Murray was reported to have said that Costa Rica was in Africa. While boxer Bernard Hopkins was critical of the referee in the Danny Green versus Roy Jones Junior fight, claiming he stopped the fight too soon. He then said but that is what you expect with fights in Europe!
The fight was of course held in Australia.
A Lesson in Geography?
