The Excuse of "american heavyweights playing nfl"

[ShatteredGlass]

Dirrell did run but he boxed better than Froch, actually did more damage and landed at a much higher clip. To me that is victory in boxing. You may not of liked the style(who could) but you gotta give the right man the victory. Even if Froch had clearly won that fight I still give Ward the edge. Froch may have a bit better resume but right now by the eye test Ward looks like a better and more complete fighter.

Pac could very well demolish both guys but I still want to see it. Pac fighting Mosley, Clottey, and Margarito does nothing in my eyes to prove that he is the best fighter in these divisions. He needs to fight some new blood.

all jokes aside, where do you see James Degale in say 2 years time

Fat Yanks always have excuses

[Cubanborn87]

its not an excuse not so much for bball player but come on if there was no nfl the heavyweight division would be dominated by americans no questions about it, those big freakish athletes would make good boxers

American boxing isnt what it was imo

There are a lot of talented young guys coming through but i dont see that extra edge that seperates them from the pack,guys like toney,roy jones and even mayweather had it you could tell coming up they were something special

All of the best American heavyweights have been exposed and destroyed by Eastern Europeans. The same thing is happening in many other weight classes too.

Soviets/Eastern Europeans weren't allowed to turn pro until the 1990s because of the cold war/iron curtain.

Now Soviets/Eastern Europeans are allowed to turn pro and we're already taking over boxing.

This is just the beginning of the Eastern European domination.

NFL/NBA is just another WEAK EXCUSE

There are tons of potential Eastern European Heavyweight Boxers who are doing Combat Sambo, MMA, Kickboxing, Hockey, Olympic Wrestling, Olympic Weightlifting, Powerlifting, Worlds Strongest Man Competitions, etc.

America isn't the only country on the planet that has other sports.

Eastern European fighters are superior.

Either Klitschko beats any HW from any era.

Why can't y'all break our records then? Why is Joe Louis American? Why is Dan Gable American? I agree other sports in an excuse, and not even a decent one. Truth is we suck now, but our past beats the **** out of your present. You might not like it but we hold the records. Records the Klitschko brothers can't claim, and even if they could who cares? we've ruled this sport since 1860. Look at all the American flags as you go down the list of champions you've got some decades before I give a ****. Our supremacy is evident we're just one nation. you can combine the whole ****ing world against us, and we still have more champs, and hold more records. Enjoy your time in the sun....pray we do produce another Tyson. And **** you for giving me bad Karma twice now your a ***** and a *****

Fat Yanks started becoming ***** cos the rest of the world started caring a bit more about boxing.

The motherfucking truth

It's one of the most pathetic excuses ever. I'm going to give it a go though "Floyd Mayweather and Pacquiao ain't shit, if Messi was boxing instead of playing football he would destroy both of them, at the same time"

Other than Football what sport do you think americans compete against themselves? I never understood why you guys think baseball isn't played all over the world, basketball is like the third most global sport in the world, hockey is played all over the Scandianivian countries, Canada and Eastern Europe, and whatever else. Football is the only sport that isn't global, yet.

I can't give an honest opinion about Degale. I haven't seen enough of him and when I do he pisses me off because he is a complete tool. I like other brits better than him but I know he is skillful. A lot of people are very high on him.
