Which country breeds the toughest fighters? I mean we all know that the most media blown fighters are Americans, however who are the toughest fighters and where did they come from.
Roberto Duran was a tough mother****er. Panamanian
Jake Lamotta the toughest mother****er. American
And Russians are starting to pump out strong jawed boxers.
But which country has the most "Bad mother****er" fighters, the boxers who would take a beating but would still come back.
as sterotypical as it sounds I feel that America actually bred some of the meanest people to walk the earth.
Jake Lamotta, SSR, Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier, Rocky Marciano (even though he is of Italian decent), Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis and so on.
Mexico, Japan, consistently breeding tough motherfuckers, but who is the toughest boxer in the world ever?
that hard to pin point.
I wouldent say Roberto Duran is tougher then Erik Morales and I wouldent say Lamotta is tougher then Carl Froch.
Durans dad is mexican
USA. Guys like Hagler Holyfield Leonard Ali Frazier Foreman Tyson Mancini to name a few!
The rest don't compare. USA! USA! USA!

It is not about country, it is about individual toughness. Mexicans are considered tough, right? America had many tough fighters, the British too. Today we have Russians like Provodnikov, Kovalev, etc.
sorry but they breed mediocre toughness. I'm a fan of puerto rican boxers but they're not particularly tough. guys like cotto and cintron and such are known to quit, take knees, jump out the ring, etc. Not the hallmark of toughness
Cotto quit and took a knee against a guy that was caught with illegal wraps in his very next fight. When cotto fought pacquiao, he was getting destroyed. And I know he was in survival mode the second half of the fight but he ain't quit. Didn't quit vs clottey either and fought with 1 eye for 9rds.
Russia because there's never been a fighter as tough as this

Nah never been a fan of the Giantism guy, very overrated using his physical abilities over what little true boxing abilities he had. No class or skill to the guy in my opinion. Still a ****in scary dude.
puerto rico ez
