    This is true. Americans for the most part dont bring the excitement mexican fighters bring.

    If Americans stopped participating in boxing it wouldnt effect the sport one bit, but if mexicans stopped the sport would take a major hit in every way possible.

        Why would Americans want to watch a sport without any of them in it?

              It would do just fine.
              I mean all the decent mexican fighters are either dead, retired or cheaters.

                That is why they watch UFC. Boxing is feeding of the hispanic market, primarily mexican market

                    There are fewer and fewer American title holders.

                    The best American fighters nowadays are Mexican-Americans...

                    For example, the best American fighter at heavyweight is Mexican-American (Arreola) and the best boxing prospect in the US is as well (Ortiz).

                    I agree, boxing needs the courageous Mexican fighters, who never give us a dull fight! JMM is more exciting to watch than any American.
