    Why are so many Russian boxers from ****** areas

    in Southern Russia or Kazakstan or the caucuses?

    If I would venture a guess that alot of it has to do with boxing promoters, and network producers because I have to believe that Russian boxers are more proportiante to their to population.

    You hardly ever see ****** hockey players from Russia. I dont know that I ever have.

    Maybe the area where they get the boxers because in each place they have different type of peopel and culture sometimes it big sometimes is abit small.

    There is some Russian areas which are non-****** like the Klits brothers and Olgea

      Most of Russia isn't ******. The areas I mentioned are mostly ****** except some places in the caucuses arn't. Maskev isn't ****** but he is from Kazakstan which is mostly ******.

      It's anomalous. How many Tennis players from Russia are ****** that you can think of besides hockey players. I've never seen one ****** Hockey player from Russia.

        You'd think there'd be alot more boxers from Like Moscow. Or around that area on the Volga River which is the most densely populated area in Russia by far. Or even from deteriorating cities in Siberia. Rather than these ****** places.

          Isn't Islam one of the more widespread religions?

          just generally speaking?

            im guessing possibly the ******s in russia are poorer like how there's some poor people who got into boxing in the western world. a rich kid is less likely to get into a ring and get his face smashed in lol.

              The Caucasus has long also had some of the best wrestlers and weight lifters in the world. I'd imagine it's sort of like Pittsburgh used to be - they just grow'em tough out there!

                Nowhere in Russia is neccessarily rich. Some places there is a **** load of money but its held in very few hands and not all accessible, in ***ish populated areas like Odessa. And in these ****** areas there's actually alot of industry, oil production.

                  It's just anomalous that it seems only in boxing that the ******s from Russia are the most prominent, in other sports like I mentioned you never see ******s from there. Weight lifting and that included.

                    You are a pretty narrow-minded individual, aren't you. You assume that if demographic report you've read, shows a lot of ***s in Odessa, than that's automatically a rich city, huh? Hate is so blind.
