USA had a good run with Sampras and Agassi. After a long while of dominance by any country there's usually a period where they are out in the wilderness, so to speak. Djokovic (my favourite) is currently dominating. All it takes is one player. Roddick doesn't have any subtlety or finesse. He just bludgeons the ball. The Williams sisters dominated for a long time (after Hingis) then the Belgians came along and broke that dominance, then we had Russians, now Wozniacki.
Happens in every sport. Those who know their cricket can use the West Indies teams of the mid 70''s to 80's as an example. Absolutely dominant and scary team, now the Windies suck. Ditto Australia. We had a team that dominated for 10 years in cricket, and it wasn't even competitive....not so anymore.
& its amazing how quickly and easily boxing has shifted from black to euro dominated in the last 15 years
euros own boxing
there is a good chance if euros had been competing all throughout history, many black champions of the past (ray robinson, muhammad ali) would have lost to better, eastern european boxers.
Than why weren't they dominating the amateur ranks when America's great heavyweights were fighting against them before going pro?
Ali, Foreman, Frazier, Radamacher all beat Europe's best. The list goes on and on.

you dont need warriors to be successful in the nba or nfl...just good athletes with physical gifts..
warrior spirit is must to be succesful in boxing....the only exeption to that is floyd jr...
