Britain Vs Latin America: Better for boxing

[S A M U R A I]

It's hard to choose. Both have produced some great fighters, but I voted Latin America. The fights are more usually more exciting to watch. Morales, Pacquiao, Marquez, Barrera, Vazquez, etc.

I agree with Enemy/Friend's post. Considering the amount of great fighters that came out of Latin America compared to it's size, I'd say it's probably been better for boxing overall.

Tough one to call, and I have no bias in terms of nationality.

Aside from Lennox Lewis the rest of those guys are all hype. I'm a fan of David Haye though.

Latin America without a doubt. Puerto Rico alone have had more champs than Britain. No offense but latin america win this by a mile. i still like Hatton, Calzaghe and Haye.

To say British boxing has given more, even just in the last 20 years, is to say Lennox Lewis > Julio Cesar Chavez, Felix Trinidad, Erik Morales and Marco Antonio Barrera combined.

I don't agree with that at all.

Pacquiao isn't from Latin America.

[Enemy/Friend]

Pacquiao isn't from Latin America.

I think he ment the fights between Pacman and EL Terrible.

How many world champions has Mexico and PR had combined? That stat coupled with the size of both of those places should win this argument.

Care to elaborate?.

Mexico has a population of around 107 million.

No they haven't.

Britain has about 66 million and puerto rico has less than seven I believe,with the amount of champions they have had even when the countries are held apart is staggering. The population difference isn't much.

I agree that it is a staggering record.

I was just pointing out that the whole of Latin America probably has twice the population of the UK.
