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

[Sweet Jesus]

17. USA - 416 Champions - Pop. 307,100,000 - .00013%

21. Mexico - 114 Champions - Pop. 111,000,000 - .000102%

Where is Slovenia? 1 champion population 2,100,000.
Also only 2 proffesional boxers and 1 of them is the world champ.

The stats are about just over a year out. Slovenia would be 31 just ahead of Croatia.

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.
