Why do British boxers suck so bad?

If I could just comment on the quality of David Haye once again, I think as it stands right now, Haye is about the only HW that stands decent chance of actually beating Wladimir with skills rather than by a shock KO. He is a VERY good fighter from Britain who will hopefully clear out the division as well. If he fought 2 years at 4 fights a year and challenged all the top ranks I've no doubt he could wipe it clean. He should theoretically be handing Fury his first spanking very shortly, another decent HW prospect from Britain. Unpolished and oafish but very big and strong and has more skills than given credit for. He's faced decent competition atleast, more than can be said for Wilder.
Best US HW is still Tony Thomson atm! Or Chris Arreola!Comment

One thing I would say is some of our sport athlete are overrated before they even do anything. Because of the way the market is if you are British you get more hype, more money etc which doesn't help in the long run, I actually quite like Cleverly (He is welsh by the way) and I do think he is a good fighter who got beat by the better man but its just that our media and fans tend to hype anyone because he don't really have a lot to hype home about.Comment

They've always ****** tbh. Nigel Benn is a legend over there but he's basically the black guy version of Michael Katsidis.Comment

Case in point this, we talked more about the Ali KD like it was a win, we talk about it like it was a great achievement. Henry cooper probably made more money for losing but KD Ali than any other boxer from a different country who made Ali work over 12 rounds during those days.Comment

Why do boxers from (insert country) suck?
Why are white boxers better than black?
Why are black boxers better than white?
