The Big 4 boxing countries

[Alibata]

add cuba and england, the u.s is not big on boxing, we cant even get a big fight on the tenth page on a newspaper

Cuba has cassamayor and gamboa. They are great in the amateurs and would be great in the pros once they hit the big time. U.S. is still by far the biggest, they got too many names to mention. England got Froch, calzaghe, Hatton, and Haye with Calzaghe and Hatton being their best current reps. Hopkins will pick Froch apart and not fade in the late rounds like Taylor. I hope Haye knocks the crap out of wlad but I don't see him winning.

I beg to differ. USA is just in a slump. Big names and greats like Mosely, Hopkins, Mayweather can still make headlines and history. The future crop of Pavlik, Berto, Ortiz, Ward, too many to mention. USA is still the deepest in talent and won't be replaced as the best boxing country anytime soon.

30 years ago, boxing was top notch in the usa, now you cant even see highlites of boxing in ESPN unless its a giant megafight, hell, tennis and senior golf is bigger in America than boxing

I'm talking about the fighters they produce, not the sport's popularity dip****.

[Rompeboca]

pacquiao, donaire, viloria and penalosa (118) are title holders

It's not exactly a big boxing country...but the Philippines has 5 current world champions.


Donnie Nietes= WBO straweight champ
Brian Viloria= IBF junior flyweight champ
Nonito Donaire= IBF flyweight champ
Gerry Penalosa= WBO bantamweight champ
Manny Pacquiao= IBO/ring mag junior welterweight champ

Brian Viloria is Hawaiian

Phillipines are currently strong but they aren't consistant. These are the only 4 countries that are always consistant. You can count Cuba but their fighters are always just trickling in.

Make it 6 to be fair..

USA
Mexico
Puerto Rico
UK
Philippines
Russians (Russia and former USSR)

This is the best possible answer.
