Almost 1.5 BILLION chinese and yet china has no professional boxers??????

Interesting subject, China lately had a pretty solid am program, maybe they will soon come out with someone spectacular.

My personal opinion is that a strict political system can not breed a good professional, thats why Ivan drago type of a fighter will always be a subject of movie rather than a reality

they do KUNG FU!!!

they do KUNG FU!!!

then they should have some really good punchers

mao zedong also banned the sport & anything that involved western philosophy or lifestyle. look up the chinese boxer rebellion on wikipedia you ignorant sons of b*tches. Nobody ever learned about the chinese isolationism in school?

there will be professional boxers coming in the future. as the chinese government have relaxed & opened up china & is slowly embracing western lifestyle.

zhou shiming is a flyweight who might make some noise.

nothing pelsonal. just hate.

i agree. and now that china are open for the sport..its people are are catching up with their neighbor probably not ready for international competition.

hey, is PELSONAL intentional? thats kinda chinese,hehe

[Siggy]

i think chinese view combat sports as unnecessary violence. violence should only be necessary, when one is defending themselves....or when the government is trying to control its own people.

oh, and people need to stop using the term "chinaman."
would you refer to latino fighters on here as ****s?

The government of China is lean more towards the amatuers, olympics, world events. Even though Yao Ming plays in the NBA, before he came, he has to promise that in time of international competitions, Yao Ming must play for the national team.

I saw a heavyweight at the 2007 World Championships in Chicago that could punch and he was a big guy, but he lacked majorly in skill.

They got some punchers. They should. They have 1.5 billion to choose from.

Zhang. He's 6'7 but not very good. Glazkov and Cammarelle always spank him.
