      Look at Puerto Rico
      It's a very small island, yet they manage to pull a lot of great champs.

      Of course, yes, the United States will always have more champs because of it's size.. but if size only was the case, China and Japan or India would be dominating boxing.

      It all depends on the interest of the sport in the country.
      Thats wrong.. There are lots of sports infront of boxing in the uk

        Except Kelly Pavlik... Or Floyd Mayweather... Or Bernard Hopkins.

        I don;t care who you think could beat them. Fact is, they are the WORLD champions in their divisions. Most of their contenders are NOT from the U.K. Quite a few are American. The p4p ranking has ONE European fighter. Maybe two. That's IT.
