In regards to fighters, Mexico is boss at the lower weights but it cannot compete with the US at the higher divisions.
From middle through heavy is almost all non-American, 1 or 2 fading guys (Hopkins, Ward) preventing their total absence.Last edited by ////; 10-03-2014, 10:07 AM.

I think another thing in favor of Mexico is Mexican fighters' willingness to fight the best.
Juan Francisco Estrada: Roman Gonzalez, Brian Viloria, Milan Melindo, Richie Mepranum, and Giovani Segura. Back to back to back to back to back.
Juan Francisco Rodriguez: Merlito Sabillo and Katsunari Takayama back to back.
Canelo: Austin Trout, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Alfredo Angulo, and Erislandy Lara. Back to back to back to back.
Juan Manuel Marquez: Manny Pacquiao, Tim Bradley, and Mike Alvarado back to back to back.
And they're willing to fight at a disadvantage in order to fight the best. Estrada moved down in weight to fight Gonzalez, and Canelo fought Mayweather at a catchweight.
A 21 year old, two 24 year olds, and a 41 year old.

We're strictly talking about Mexico vs U.S not the entire world, I know who's dominating the heaviest weights. Reading comprehension, you need more of it.

The top 2 Mexican fighters listed by the TS won maybe 1 out of 24 rounds against the top American on the TS list.

The fact that Mayweather beat Alvarez and Marquez does not nullify the rest of Mexico's body of work as a whole.
I mean, if we're talking about which country produces DIVAS that need every advantage then the U.S. destroys Mexico,.
