How big is boxing in your country?

I was wondering how mainstream boxing is in Ukraine, Engeland, Russia, Fillipines etc. Especially Ukraine, they are really dominating the Amateur scene.. How big is boxing in Ukraine?
And is PPV everywhere a big thing? In my opininon PPV is the main reason boxing is not mainstream anymore in the US ;(

Its big in the Uk.

Khan,Froch,Haye are household names.

Yea but boxing is only on paid networks right? On sky?

[mikinoki]

In Romania not big but we have every so often a champion like Bute and we back them.Kickboxing is king here and mma is growing fast....

Pacquiao is big in the Philippines but not boxing. Nobody there knows who Bernard Hopkins, etc...is except from few "boxing" fans.

Yea same here in Holland, kickboxing really big, but boxing nope ;(

In the Netherlands boxing is non-existant and so much so that
even Floyd Mayweather doesnt make any news.
Strange considering its located between Germany and the UK.

Yea same here in Holland, kickboxing really big, but boxing nope ;(

In the US i would say maybe 4-5 with Football being king, then baseball, then basketball, then depends on hockey at 4/5

I wouldn't say boxing is that big over here. Obviously the big fights get attention but apart from that, no one really cares. We have a boxing show on a free channel once every 3/4 months. Otherwise, you have to pay for the channels Sky Sports or a boxing dedicated channel ran by promoter Frank Warren for £10 a month.
