    Seriously, they are all ****

    Normally have glass jaws and get exposed the minute they step up

    Is it genetic or something else?

    You guys just don't have access to the PED's the US and Russian guys have access too.

      Name one decent HW in the US atm, extant ones, not prospects like Wilder, besides Tony Thompson? Nothing! Pretty sad when your best HW at this time that would pose any threat to Klitschko whatsoever is almost a pensioner!

      In the 90's Britain had Lennox Lewis! Today they have David Haye! What US fighter is of this calibre now???
      No he didnt, Watch the fight.

          Yeah I know. It was a farce but Chisora is English not American!

            I personally think Billy Joe Saunders is going to be pretty good, shame he just doesnt have a bit more pop in his punches.

              compare British to other countries with similar populations and socioeconomic conditions such as France, Germany, Spain and Italy and they actually do very well in boxing.

              Not so well in Football of late but I guess having 4 teams doesn't help.

                Yes until the opening up of the soviet union, Britain had it over continental Europe.

                There are SOME good/top boxers from the US in the lower divisons, we know who they are. But they are now an anomaly in an otherwise fat, lazy and undisciplined society.
