    What's happening to American fighters?!

    there is no more of them, what's the deal?
    are they running short of talent or are they simply being OVERMATCHED by foreign competition which appears to be in its peak!
    the ONLY credible american fighter is kelly pavlik!
    that's it! this phenomenon is just puzzling...
    what do you think?!

      to be honest, this leads me to believe those old school american fighters were NOT that good if they never had the chance to fight any WORTHY foreign foes, i have a feeling american boxing wasn't that good to begin with!

          that's extremely ignorant and inaccurate, NFL and NBA have been around since forever, all of the sudden that becomes an excuse, it's quite pathetic frankly...
          the post ain't towards you BTW, I'm just talking about that dumb excuse yanks come up with

            Actually, you're 100% right. They went with the big bucks. Can you imagine Allen Iverson in boxing? Wow.

                  What i think we don't see as much is more black boxers like Lacy willing to fight toe to toe it seem more black boxers now a days are boxers in style.
