American boxing on it's knees

[Weebler I]

It is sad when a Yank can't be considered a fan of British boxing by your standards.

I didn't say that. Anyone can be a fan of any boxing. I was just wondering if there was a connection, that's all.

Didn't Hatton state that the only belt which matters is the Ring Belt?

is that the pfp status so many yank posters are determined that he won't have if he beats Pac?

I think it is their choice to be down, if at all. Right now, if Am-football and NBA was outlawed, boxing would definitely be owned by Americans.

Given that the USA has a population about four times that of the UK, your list looks quite proportional to me.

If both territories were of the same population level, you could make that kind of comparison, but they aren't.

Okay then, look at it this way. 32 fighters, compared to 9 fighters. The U.S. has THREE times the amount of fighters, with much higher rankings having fought better opposition and higher RANKED opposition. More 'titles' and I'm almost positive I missed some Americans, some that I left out out of laziness. Which would make it four times (only needing 4 more fighters to do that) and having a few fighters left over.

Realistically, the U.K. has to lay off this size differential BS. Puerto Rico is no bigger than a K-Mart and their fighters are damn-near GIVEN 'titles' when they turn pro.

I always thought you were British J.B., how come you're such a fan of British boxing?



no, polls on NSB are always horribly biased towards fat yanks. You guys are always pulling extra numbers on us.

well why i'm a fan of british boxing, is the fights that got me started in boxing, were all british fighters and i used to get all these old britsh fights on my tv as a child....kinda grew up with it...and i love the the fighting styles of the brits....its not like your typical middle/eastern european style....its a really unique style.

Not sure. I do know that he happily graced the cover of that magazine and that the British media embraced that magazine when they crowned him fighter of the year.

hold up, UK has 60 million people to the US's 303 million and boxing isn't even a big thing at all over here unlike the way it's hyped in the US.

Boxing is not big AT ALL over here. What the hell are you smoking?

No, the ring belt has nothing to do with P4P rankings.
