I believe the country with the richest boxing history would be England. Back in the late 1700s and and early 1800s the towns people would gather together in a field outside of town pound 4 poles into the ground and tie rope around the poles making a square. The fighters in that time would fight bear knuckle for up to 8 hours until a winner was detirmined most often they fought to the death. 4 ounch gloves weren't introduced to the sport until the 1880s. Some of the longer bear knuckle fights would last for 60 or more rounds. If the police showed up most of the time they would break the fights up when that would happen the fight would be declared a draw. One of the longer fights I've read about lasted 22 hours ending in a 188 round draw in central England in the mid 1850s.

What country has the richest Boxing history?

1. U.S.A. (over 400 champions)

2. MEXICO (over 100) champions)

3. PUERTO RICO (over 60 champions)


Although you need to take into account that in the numbers for the USA they count all the Mexican American champions for the USA as well as the US born Puerto Ricans like John Ruiz and others.

But those are the top 3 as far as boxing history and champions produced.

Mexicans suck at life overall.

actually Puerto Rico is part of the United States, so you may as well add their number to the USAs.
