    Well I've never seen a Native American world champ or even contender. Arreola is only a small fraction Native American. So by your logic, the USA must be one of the worst boxing nations of all time.

      Blacks are not Americans. They call themselves African-aMERICAN.

      Like a Mexican-American.

      I wouldn't conider Arreola pure american. Infact the fight was "will a fighter of mexican origin finally be a heavyweight champ?"

        That is actually weird, because every Native American Ive ever met is a scrappy motherfucker.

                I don't see why it's funny that a nation where boxing is smaller than cycling, rowing, darts and snooker doesn't produce the same amount of champions as America.

                A country 10x bigger than Britain and with more than 5x the population.

                  Its not funny at all.

                  Yet you guys sure can talk some smack as if you have rich stacked history of boxing champions. Especially you.

                    I have no idea why anyone would say if you're black you're not American. If you are born on American soil, like so many African Americans you are for sure an American. By that logic most whites born in America aren't American either because they have European decent. I'd really love to know what some of you consider being American is.

                      For the size we are and considering how big boxing is over here.

                      I think our history is pretty fucking amazing.
