Britain is just a tiny island in western Europe, no where near as big in land mass as the state of Texas. However, it is true that we have more World Champions than most countries, which is quite impressive when you consider that boxing is sadly no longer big in the UK.

Most of my fellow Brits who I am acquainted with prefer cricket over every sport in the world, albeit most of them are of Pakistani origin.

When I was last in the UK I noticed that Pakistani people seemed to make up about 10% of the UK population so I'm not surprised that cricket is rather big over there BUT it is not true that you have had (and currently have) more champions of the world than most nations.

If you only have 1 title holder then that is more than most nations.

Pakistanis don't make anywhere near 10% if the population and the reason why it's big over hear is because England is the birthplace of cricket.

Last time I was in England I was in a place called Bradford, and it seemed like 10% to me, but obviously I'm not good with numbers!

Sorry.

That is an excellent point.

lol. What a truly ludicrous and utterly unfounded comment.

I love America, but how many American-born men hold heavyweight world title belts right now?

Britain has got a great history in Boxing considering it size and the fact that the sport is not even very popular in Britain compared to other sports.
