The ****** Islands, is it the best place for boxing.

[D4thincarnation]

The best nation for boxing is the ****** Islands, would you agree that this tiny nation deserves to be top of the pile?

The ****** Islands have had 3 world champions and with a population of just over 100,000 they have the most per a capita.

While the USA and England can only make it to 17th and 23rd on the list.

The Data from this look to be over a year old, because it has England down as 47 champs and England has now 50, but they are some interesting stats there.

Thanks new to this board still trying to find my way around.

The stats are a bit old could redo them, but thats my will take a while and a calculator again.

Some fighters are difficult to place, maybe they have fought under a different flag from their birth.

Australia could maybe should be a lot higher, left some fighters out because they moved their late in life.

Will try and do a revised and updated list at some point.
