    There are sone incredibly strong people in Pakistan, again due to the way they were brought up

    Don't be surprised if this hits off that some good big punchers come out of it. Maybe not technically the best but say someone like ggg or Lucas

    Pakistan is a very diverse country, you really need to study it though to understand

        An ethnically diverse country is the USA, or Brazil. These two are the most diverse in the world.
        You dont need mass immigration to be diverse if u look at UK and factor out the immigration its a union of English, Scots, Welsh and Irish all of whom are different ethnicities so that makes UK diverse even without immigration. You dont have to look different from one another and u cant say English and Scots are same ethnic groups

        Same concept applies to the country we're discussing

          Is the real world ignorant? and stereotypes people they have no experience of living with?

          No thanks.

          Nothing has failed, what has failed is your understanding of people who are from different parts of the world. You simply cannot brush a whole nation because of their lack of interest in a sport activity.

          Why your so hell bent on putting Pakistanis in a negative light when it comes to this topic just makes me question your respect for diversity.

          Give me a real genuine reason why people of Asia cannot be successful in this sport? Golovkin is Asian btw.

            @ Badzi1987 lets just hope his intentions are not sterotypical or based on racial nature. but lets assume he lacked understanding on this topic. although he is adamant to be correct lol

            just wish he does some homework on the topic and polishes his/her facts beforming forming opinions.

              all the Asian countries have untapped talent, there are billions of them

              Look at Triple G and Pac man

              India has made inroads, just a matter of time they get some professional boxers. Kazakhstan as well were having many boxers in the Olympics and now they have Triple G

              Boxing or any sport for that matter is all about investment and facilities

Also, commercially it can be huge.
                From my understanding, Pakistan was India before independence

                So they are the same, asides from nationality.

                India has a deep rooted link to martial arts and yoga, as does most of Asia, as trainers traveled country to country teaching folk and establishing classes, there was this fascinating docu about Martial Arts on TV some years back and it showed the different forms of Martial Arts and its origins, amazing stuff.

                  Dear oh dear, you really went and chucked all your toys out the pram, didn't you...

                  How have I tried to "put Pakistanis in a negative light"? I haven't. You're making stuff up.

                  When did I say anything about Asians? What the **** are you babbling on about?

                  And Golovkin is Eurasian (half European, half Korean). Absolutely no connection to this thread, so why you brought him up, I don't know. This thread has nothing to do with Asia. Please try to stick to the topic.

                      WHEN DID I MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT ASIA?

                      Exactly...

                      Golovkin is half Russian (European), and half Korean. Not that it matters, but now for some bizarre reason, a thread about Khan setting up a boxing school in Pakistan has moved to what ethnicity Golovkin is. **** you people are so desperate. lol
