    If the top fighters at heavyweight are as bad as you say, how bad are the Americans?

    Out of 150,000,000 men, including some 15,000,000 BIG men, can't the US get ONE BOXER into the top five at heavyweight?

    Are the Americans really that bad?

    I'll admit Canadian heavyweghts suck, but I won't stoop to attacking the East European heavyweights out of jealousy.

        It's kinda weird to think Chambers is a top 5 heavyweight...

                Eddie chambers is in the top 5 if you don't count the champ

                    Some would argue that the best big athletes are being geared towards basketball and football more than boxing in the US in this day and age. But that would be making excuses IMO.

                        Counting the champ, he really isn't though.

                        Dimitrenko should be higher anyway, and will be after July 4.

                                Even if they were, there are only a certain number of positions to fill in those sports. That would still leave some 15,000,000 BIG AMERICAN MEN to become heavyweight boxers.
