What's happening to American fighters?!

[ferocity]

Jealous little illegal immigrant..

Black fighters are a lot better than mexicans..They have a thing called DEFENSE..

study boxing of old and look at how the majority of black fighters fight back then to how the majority fight today


you saying Mexicans don't have defense ok chucky

always with the word play instead of coming back strong with boxing inside knowlege.

LMAO, the only credible american is pavlik...real intelligent comment. First of all, we have the universally regarded p4p #1 in Floyd and arguably 7 others in the top 20 p4p in Hopkins, Pavlik, Winky, Mosley, Campbell, DLH and Taylor. To me it isnt bad at all to have 8 out of the best 20 be from the US...

simple answer..

its called globalisation.

Boxing is now more so than ever an international sport and the Junior Welterweight division and heavyweights are the perfect example of the globalization of Boxing


its funny how the supposed decline in american boxing goes hand in hand with this...where they actually that good to begin with? or is it fair to say that the plateau has finally evened out simply due to fresh blood and NOT a decline in the capabilities of US fighters at all!

p.s it is because of globalisation americans have fighters like pavlik whos parent's barely speak english,so it is without doubt a good thing for boxing as a whole

So basically you guys are saying that American fighters have turned into a collection of cowardly gaylords?

A cowardly gaylord hid behind a WBO crap strap for 10 years and slaps like a girl swatting flies..

An American slammed Europes best fighter off the ring post and into oblivion.

Can you imagine popkins traveling all the way to Great Britain and challenging Calzaghe in his turf?! I sure as hell can't!

This is why American fighters are being badly beaten by foreign fighters, it's because they're unwilling/scared of actually stepping out of their backyard, that's cowardly which is why boxing is dead in America but alive and well in EUROPE!!!

[Bizzle_LDN]

the #1 fighter in the world is american, Hell and Zab has talent just not heart and mind. The best UK fighters squeaked a SD and won a UD to a someone on his way out.

The talent is great in the UK huh?

It is an unjust statement to say the UK has no talent! We have various good fighters established and upcoming. So Calzaghe, Haye, Khan, Hatton, Froch have no talent?? You have some great fighters, Mayweather, Pavlik and... oh Hopkins. But he got beat by some one with no talent right?

If you're going to mention Khan you have to metion guys like Kirkland, Ward, Dirrell.....

Just so you guys saying "globalisation" is spelt wrong, thats actually the correct UK spelling.

Globalisation in action!
