European Fighters are DOMINATING the Higher Weight Classes

[Komander]

David Haye is also European. Why do you hate him?

[BmoreBrawler]

It is see my the NEW best division of boxing thread, but does it really matter being boxing fans and all? As long as boxing is doing well, we should be happy.

Lot of new stars. Who knows what the P4P Rankings will be in the next 5-10 years? The point is boxing isn't going anywhere...its here to stay.

Boxing is in survival mode but with the recession and Fraud coming out of retirement to deliver more PBF/DLH type "superfights" who knows?!??!

[Deja_Vous]

Chad Dawson is a young fighter in his 20s who only fights 40 year olds. That seems disgraceful to me.

At least Dawson had the balls to fight Johnson.

Sloppy Joe shamelessly ducked Glenn..claiming his divorce was too painful..LOL...!

Chad is 26.

What was Joe doing when he was 26?????

LOL

He has a point, Europe is doing well at the moment isnt it.

Not really.

[BmoreBrawler]

Come to think of it, basically the USA has Popkins, Pavlik, semi-retired Mayweather, a few decent 135 and under guys and Vernon Forrest. thats about it. Even though I ususally root American, this really doesnt bother me. Most of the foreigners are more exciting than American fighters, maybe because they are hungrier.

[Dubious-Dutch]

Not really.

Yes they are, you should acknowledge this as it is plain to see.
