Wales is the best country for producing boxers per population now.

[TheRocketMan]

Puerto Rico = 4,000,000

[Ryn0]

Wilde is THE best boxer in brtish history IMO. He's in my P4P top 10

[TheRocketMan]

I agree with you Ryno although it's certainly possible it could be Calzaghe or Lewis.

[Reggie Miller]

wow, 6 boxers and only one has the best recognition? very nice, .

[BMWM3P]

Puerto Rico curently has 3 world champions soon to be 4 in just a couple of hours. There are also 5 ex world champions that are currently active fighters. And a semi retired ex world champion sure HOF in Tito Trinidad.

3 World Champions
Miguel Cotto
Carlos Quintana
Ivan Calderon

Soon to be Champion
Juan Manuel Lopez

5 Ex World Champions
Daniel Santos
Kermit Cintron
Luis Collazo
Nelson Dieppa
Eric Morel

And numerous up and coming prospects that will soon make their impact in boxing. Puerto Rico is by far the best country producing champions and great boxers per capita.

how come hes so highly regarded? and Im not challenging anyone, I really want to know, because Im not too familiar with fighters before the 1960s.

he doesnt look all that fantastic from the little video Ive seen of him, but of course, thats not much...



and his record looks nice, at 137-5, but a ton of his opponents had very few fights, if any. http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php...boxer&pageID=3
http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php...boxer&pageID=2
http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php...boxer&pageID=1

and then he had title defences against guys like George Clark and **** Heasman who had never fought professionally before and never won professional match in their career. and then others were against guys like 'Young Zulu Kid' who just did not have a good record at all...doesnt look that great.

someone care to educate me?

Wilde went undefeated in 103 bouts. That alone, is enough to make him one of the best we have ever produced.

Even if the guy had been fighting tomato cans, to stay that dominant for that long is a tremendous achievment.

[J_CON]

Calzaghe is the only on worth metioning

Wilde has been rated in the top 3 pound for pound punchers in boxing history, most boxing writers have him 1st. He was knocking out champions 2 and 3 weight divisions above him.
From what I've seen he was unbeatable at his own weight, he lost fighting boxers 15lbs+ heavier.
