If you overrate boxers because they are Cuban or Ukrainian that is your mistake alone so don't blame anyone else. Watch them fight first and rate them by what you see. This stuff you say about fans rating boxers so high because the boxers look like them or are the same as them is BS. Loma, GGG and Usyk are great fighters who did great things in the ring and they are admired by many fans of all races and countries. All of them are rated as among the 10 best pound for pound boxers in the world by every important ranking place.Do you think the guys who rate boxers for Ring magazine, ESPN, Boxrec and Boxing Scene are from Russia or Ukraine? News flash, they aren't. Rate boxers however you want but don't tell us how to rate them.
GGG is neither from Ukraine or Russia. He is Kazakh.
True one of the lowest but at the same time one of the highest when Oscar, Floyd, Manny, canelo were all at one point the highest paid athletes in The world
Naseem Hamed was also among the highest paid athlethes in the world. He ranked at number-22 on Forbes' list of the world's highest-paid athletes for 1997. Thats absolutely incredible! 23 years old, a featherweight + in the 1990s.
Amir isn't British, he's Pakistani, like Naseem is Yemeni. He's also had a good career, minus his chin.
Anthony Joshua, Lennox Lewis, Chris Eubank, Nigel benn, Frank Bruno, Amir Khan and Naseem Hamed. None of them are british. Nigerian, Caribbean, Yemeni and Pakistani.
He walks out with the British flag that's enough proof of him being British and have a British citizenship thats British enough for me, the UK has done more for him than Pakistan has and will ever do...
People in Pakistan rescpect and admire Khan. Cant say that for white people in UK.
If I’m jerking the curtain, fighting on the first Non televised fight (12 fight card, typically only 3-4 are televised) in an arena with nobody in it, how much should I realistically get paid?
Let’s be real here. You gotta earn your way to making money. It’s why so many guys have jobs.
Also try to remember that judges, refs and ringside doctors get paid before anyone else.
What about the elite boxers earning close to nothing? Boxing is losing its popularity. Naseem Hamed a featherweight earned mega paydays bigger than some heavyweights.
im sure white people in the uk love grade A china
to drink their tea out of
With out Immigrants british Boxing would be on the same level as german or french Boxing lmao.
What elite boxers are earning close to nothing? Name them.
Look at the flyweights and super flyweights. The lower your weightclass the less you make. Roman Gonzalez, Juan Francisco Estrada, Inoue, could barely by an expensive car with the money they made in their careers. Really great fighters from the lower weight classes have historically fought for peanuts. Eder Jofre I remember hearing would fly around the globe for 2 grand and traveling expenses. Almost nobody below lightweight's ever made a dime. Not Ricardo Lopez, Mark Johnson, Tapia, or Wonjongkam. I think Donaire's only million dollar purse was for Rigondeaux and Rigondeaux has never had a million dollar purse.
