    British Boxers have 9 World Titles.

    From Light Welterweight to Heavyweight

    Heavyweight: Russia (2) Ukraine (1) Uzbek (1) Nigeria (1)
    Cruiserweight: UK (2) US (2) Germany (1) UK (1)
    Light Heavyweight: Hungary (1) Croatia (1) US (1) UK (1)
    Super Middleweight: UK (3) Romania (1) Australia (1)
    Middleweight: Germany (2) US (2)
    Light Middleweight: US (2) Ukraine (1) Haiti (1)
    Welterweight: US (2) Puerto Rico (2)
    Light Welterweight: UK (2) US (1) Columbia (1)

    I've listed by nationality according to BoxRec. The US has the most with 15, and the UK is second with 9. Tomorrow, the US may gain one (Mosley).

    Britain: 63,000,000 and 9 belts, that's one belt per 7 million people.

    USA: 300,000,000 and 16 belts, that's one belt per about 19 million people...

    We have good exciting boxers like: Haye, Hatton, Calzaghe, Woods, Macca, Khan, Witter, Froch, etc.

    We have 3 Ring Champions: Calzaghe, Hatton and Haye.

              How popular is boxing over there? Is "Boxing is dead" theme go around over there also? Or do ppl all around know the famous current boxers,like a Soccer star?

                    People love it. 50,000 people go to see Calzaghe fight, When Hatton fought here it used to be houseful all the time in Manchester. Sold out arenas...Khan draws a huge crowd as well. Boxing IMO is popular, I go to non-casual boxing fans and they all know who Khan, Hatton and Calzaghe are.
