    Euros are dominating because there are more of them competing, imagine that the Cold War is still on and that there are no Europeans in boxing, the void would be filled by other fighters, 95% of them being Americans.

      Look at how many play in the NFL, you are telling me with their frames/bone structure, at least 1-10, couldn't take a punch?

      I don't have the list, but some even boxed in the amatuers before turning to Football full time because of college, and the potential to go pro.

        Euros are just as talented and well trained as Americans but are hungrier. It's a no brainer really. Next thead please.

          If Ali, Foreman, Tyson, etc. were born in this generation, they most likely wouldn't be boxing, my point.

          I will not expect you to post tomorrow because the gun should be near your head by now.
          Ali, Foreman, Tyson, etc., were not MADE into fighters there were, they were BORN the fighters we remember. They would be boxing if they were born in stone age.

            I am still waiting for another Kostya Tszyu, haven't seen him yet...if there is another, please let me know.

            I will be searching for the upcoming fights of the new young Russian prospects, so hopefully they will impress.

            Seriously, the Heavyweight division sucks at the moment, at least the fights I have been watching...Wlad's good though; root for him all the time.


            Please, someone make the list of all the good Euros right now

                  Even if the "Cold War" was still on, if the "Americans" made up 95% of boxing, I would still say the majority are **** because the best athletes have gone into other sports, the majority of boxing gyms are closed, and of course, the youth is really ****ed up at the moment. Not sure what I would blame more: television, video-games, fast food, the "Pussification" or what...maybe all.

                      As I said before.

                      WHAT THE **** does being a good "athelete" have to do with your ability to fight?


                      **** ALL!


                      Get over it. Euros are dominating. Even european bastketball is getting better.


                      Whats with this superiority complex. Its not your time. get ****ing over it.

                      The excuse that good ahteletes are in other sports, which is bull**** in itself is useless.

                      I can say the same for USSR. The Soviet fighters couldnt fight pro for over 80 years. What would happen if athletes from the soviet union were allowed to develop in the pros for as long as the americans have been.

                      What if the Cubans were allowed to fight on the pro stage from the beginning.


                      The only reason Americans did dominate the division because they were the only's ones pretty much fighting in it.



                      Get over it. Americans dont have superior genes. Times changed, the sport changed.

                      Stop making ****** bull**** excuses.
