All the American Heavies are playing Football/Basketball

[ShoulderRoll]

Most English kids want to be footballers. The money in the game has grown ridiculously over the years that now that even ****ty English players get paid extortionate wages.

But that sport doesn't tend to attract big men to the same extent that basketball and American football do.

So you think all the English or "European" big men become boxers?

[Skip Bayless]

well thats where the money is so who can blame them. in boxing only the top guys make good money but in football/basketball the average joe can get that cheddar

[B-Bomber]

It's an absolutely ridicolous notion.

All Indians boxers are playing cricket , Italians and Spaniards are playing football while the Russian Joe Louis is working in a factory.

It's pure speculation and an entirely tautological argument.

The core of your stament is : so many MrX's could have been boxers, but they are not, because they are not boxers.

It's self evident.

Again, none of those countries ruled heavyweight boxing for a century then suddenly stopped producing champions.

Canada ruled hockey for years, and now they don't, why? Because the rest of the world caught up. Stop blaming your ineptness, recently, in heavyweight boxing on some ******, illogical theory. Get over yourselves, ****.

Do you not see how dumb you look to complain that your talent pool has decreased whilst ignoring the fact that you already have a much larger pool to chose from than other countries in the first place?

Once again, do you think big men from other countries all box?

Fat Yanksville has a population of 350million and endless resources yet you can only produce 1 Heavyweight beltholder in almost a decade. Same as England.

You should be pretty ashamed in all honesty.

Don't bother matter man, the guys subscribing to that ridiculous theory are honestly ******. I don't even mean that as a personal attack, it's just the reality of the matter. They refuse to believe that other countries can match them in athletics, they truly believe they're superior. They lack any humility and need to find some pathetic excuse to explain why they're not dominant anymore.

[Bushidō]

correct. why get punched in the face to try to make money when you can just play basketball and football

His point was easy understand.

Boxing isn't popular here like it was 30 years ago

Those athletes who'd be boxing right now are in other more lucrative sports
