Oh I don't doubt that. I'm just saying, how many other countries do you see dominating their 10th most popular sport?Comment

That kind of football is not suited for the big man. The NFL caters to big, strong guys and would diminish heavyweight fighters from the U.S. Most soccer players are not legit heavyweight size so that argument doesn't work
Chambers beat Dimitrenko so what's that say. I wouldn't say Povetkin, Chagaev, or Ibragimov are impressive heavyweight talent. They may of had belts(except povetkin) but it speaks to how crummy the division truly is. They are not very good at all. Can't say anything about Boytsov because I've never seen him fight but outside of the Klits the division is really poor. American or Euro.
The point about 'soccer' is pretty legit although there are some exceptions but don't forget about rugby which is much more popular in the UK than boxing to be honest, definitely in terms of participants.Comment

You overestimate yourself, greatly.
