which country breeds the best boxers

[DAN916]

I agree that Cuba would dominate if they could fight pro. They would destroy Mexico and Puerto Rico.

Will see when Gamboa fights Juanma Lopez!!

[the niggest]

U.S.A. And that is a fact, it can't be argued against and anybody who says any other country is ****in wrong. It is as simple as that.

[Mr. Philadel]

imo...Puerto Rico does....that small island has bred some of boxing's BEST!!!

[Nick Name]

Today:
1. UK has the highest percentage of biggest names and top prospects (Haye, Khan, Froch, Cleverly, DeGale)
2. Mexico has more talents overall but less huge names (Alvarez, JMM, Segura, Montiel above all)
3. USA is struggling to keep up with the past but always there due to the highest standard of facilities and training
4. Germany. Not huge superstars but consistent presence among middleweights and above (Abraham, Sturm, Sylvester, Brahme...)
5. Argentina
6. Puerto Rico
7. Philipines
8. Ukraine
9. Japan
10. Canada

Special mentions for Cuba, Italy and Russia which produce the best talents in the world among amateurs but have facilities/political/economical issues that prevent them from going pro.


All times:
1. USA (...Or should I say "Africa"... just too many great names)
2. Mexico (Chavez, Arguello, Morales & co. plus tons of Chicanos)
3. Cuba (Napoles, Gavilan, Kid Chocolate, Stevenson...)
4. Italy (Benvenuti, Loi, Carnera, Antuofermo, and think about all the Americans with Italian descent)
5. Puerto Rico (Ortiz, Trinidad & lots of others)
6. UK (Lewis, Calzaghe, Benn, Hamed...)

...And then all the rest

A boxer can't be BEST if he isn't a CHAMPION;

Therefore, the country that has produced the most Numbers of Champions are

USA and Mexico

[SCtrojansbaby]

The correct answer is Cuba

[NChristo]

2. Mexico (Chavez, Arguello, Morales & co. plus tons of Chicanos)

How dare you, Arguello was Nicaraguan not Mexican.

[SAN D13GO VILLAN]

I just want to give it up to argentina because they have been coming up lately especially Martinez.

[GeorgiaRED]

just a random guess....USA & MExico.
