    Is boxing big in China?

    How big in boxing in China? They did pretty good at the Olympics, hosting it may have had an affect on that though. Is Zou Shiming a star there?

          Do you know who were awesome at the Olympics?

          The Mongolians, is there any Mongolian pro's? they were flashy as phuck.

          That chinese guy who beat Kenny Egan was given a gift, he was comprehensively outclassed in the final and one the final with ease somehow.

              To bad for them they just bum off Ping-pong and torture children into becoming great at gymnastics.

              They've also never created a single good soccer player.

              Maybe they're just **** at Sport somehow.

              I read somewhere they're not really interested in traditional sports but more obvious physical shows of strength or stamina or skill. Like when they used to own at distance running and all that ****. Now they like Snooker.

                You ever try playing ping-pong?.... It isn't as easy as it seems. The Chinese could certainly produce an outstanding boxer since they make up 1/6th of the worlds population.

                  I know it takes skill.

                  That's why I mentioned skill.
