          It's really interesting to see how different nations produce boxers that do well at certain weights.

          Look at the Ukraine, all those guys are massive. The USA seems to produce Average sized to Large champs (140-175) while Mexico/Philippines/Puerto Rico have smaller champions. The UK is similar to the USA but can actually produce a decent Heavy once in a while.

          Look at Germany - their three champs are within 15 lbs of each other.

          Fascinating stuff.

                Vic Darchinyan is Armenian and the IBO is not counted as a major title.
