    And this TS comes from the UK I believe, so he's not really in a position to talk about another country that still craps all over his in professional boxing.
    since when have I claimed the UK is good, I have not once. I think we are terrible at football(soccer to you guys) and have declined due to Germany and Spain having better training at grass roots level.


    See I am man enough to admit it, why wont you admit the slide of American boxing, like golf, tennis and various other world sports.

      I would say the US is on the slide even though they have still have some top boxers. Eastern European boxers seem to be coming through rapidly. The UK did pretty well at the last Olympics whilst America won nothing. In a few years when the new generation comes in, it'll be interesting how diverse the sport is.

      Mayweather is done in a couple of years. Ward is what? 30? Bradley is just not that good and living on borrowed time. I'm not entirely convinced that any of those young guys can dominate. We've seen the likes of Paul Williams,Devon Alexander and now Broner be completely exposed in the last few years when all were tipped to be P4P kings.

        When your Hattons and Calzaghes get to 25-0 from feasting on "home cooking" send them to Vegas to set up training and take on the promoters and matchmakers here so that when they're ready for a title shot or simply moving up their "really" ready.
        Theres been a few good fighters from Britian but they fall short when they leave there or have the nerve to step up into top tier comp.
        Your fans actually thought that Hatton was going to be an ATG competitor!
        We talk about our fighters who are over hyped and when they finally get beat its not a surprise to us (Broner) You remove yourselves from the reality of boxing by not recognizing your fighters short comings.
        Is it possible that the size of your country (tiny) has backed up the boxing gene pool?? Is that why the African and Jamacian etc natives are welcomed there? You kind of "make them your own"? As long as their successfull ofcourse! I'm sort of being disrespectfull to England, the difference between you and I is I'm making a point and your being demeaning! Enough of you.

                  So I guess our young fighters suck too......

                  Errol Spence, Gary Russell, Diego Magdaleno, Danny Garcia, Demetrius Andrade, Keith Thurman, Shawn Porter, Terence Crawford, Mikey Garcia are all young fighters.

                  Timothy Bradley is 30, still has probably anywhere from 2/3-5 years left unless he slips in the next couple years. Mayweather is still the best fighter in the sport. Andre Ward is 29, hopefully he finally moves up and schools Kovalev and Stevenson like he would.

                  We could have half the Top 10 P4P in the next year. Mayweather, Bradley, Ward, Danny, and Mikey could all be there in the next year.

                      you could do, but I bet you don't. plus the P4P rankings are subjective and completely biased in favour of US fighters.

                      Don't forget a few moments ago paul Williams, broner and dawson were all "p4p" legends.

                      As say I hope you are right, but to be brutally honest as dirk diggler says Bradleys on borrowed time.
