    are eastern europeans slowly overt taking boxing..

    someone earlier posted a very interesting prospect in mathew karabov(is that right). hEs from russia...

    You have mikkel kessler denmark(debatable easternern european), abraham(armenian), the klitsckos, adamek, and theres some very tasty fighters in the amateur and professional game...

    Add the fact that fedor and ardre arloski do/did dominate the mma game shows they are slowly overtaing combat sports imo..


    Compared to us brits anyway they just seem more athletic than us. The only reason carl froch has loose long limbs is taking credit to his polish father.

    I think people fear this as they are often boring people with no charisma...but they are hard working, veryt strong and athletic and have very good amateur background.

    Whats you lots opinions on this....

        Kessler isn't eastern european.

        As for the topic one can say the eastern euros always has been kept out of the pros for political reasons. They have always done well in the ams, so now that more and more turn professional from the former eastern bloc, it's only natural for them to take their share of the market. Add to that that there's substantially more poverty in those countries and you have the perfect breeding-ground for hungry pro fighters.

            Well it's Matvey Korobov not matt and not matthew

            i honestly can't tell if this is a troll job or not.

            but short answer........strong commitment to amateur boxing, you'll get alot of good fighters.
