    Myth: Britain has not produced a truly great fighter for fifty years.

    Busted: It has been longer than that.
    Myth: America produces the best fighters

    Busted: They're all PED cheats

      Myth: Mexicans are one dimensional, they can't box!!
      Debunked: Juan Manuel Marquez, Rafael Marquez, Christian Mijares, Finito Lopez are great boxers. There counterpunching is/was on point.

      Myth: Antonio Margarito had an unbreakable chin!!
      Debunked: Shane Mosley KO'd him. Pacquiao wobbled him.

      Can you come up with any?
      Marquez is the definition of one dimensional. All he can do is counter, if you do anything other than come right at him you'll probably win the fight. So that myth is still confirmed.

          Myth: All European fighters are hype jobs.

          Busted: Fighters like Porter, Wilder and Thurman are as much hype jobs as any Euro fighter.

            When a boxer says he gets stronger as the fight goes on. That's just not physically possible. If anything, the other guy just wears out quicker.

                  Myth: Dirk Diggler can take a ****.

                  Busted: Only because he can't even take a joke and got emotional like a PMS'ing female.

                    Most of the top fighters are on PEDs, regardless of nationality.

                      I didn't even read your post. I saw your avatar of Cotto and it reminded me. I think you are the one who caught feelings mate.

                      Americans seem to get caught the most despite their testing scheme being **** or non-existent. It's safe to say they are the worst nation for it.
