    whats up with american boxers?

    I dont know if anyone has noticed lately but americans have been getting beat up quite frequently! I dont know maybe we outta consider moving more boxing gyms into the suburbs. I dont know maybe its that the elite american fighters look as though they have bigger wallets than hearts or at least that what they r wanting!...Right now we have Tayler, Tarver, an old hopkins and another senior named delahoya, heavy weights dont even get me started. Mayweather is pound for pound the best american fighter but damn most americans hate him..lol..they pray a white foreigner or practically anyone will beat him...like i said i dont know what it is but maybe we outta close the boxing gyms down in the ******s and train some kids with a little more talent, brains and stray away from the boys from the streets...sorry but my philosphy is ..if any is living in the streets of american they r really facing hard times or just plain dumb...and alot of american fighters just plain are dumb..sorry but true...

    Pretty Boy Floyd is THE AMERICAN BOXER right now and he will prove it on April 8th against Judah.
    Americans dont hate Mayweather as much as you say, he may be a bit ****y, but that is the name of the game when you are a pro boxer.

      you know you are right in some respect but I believe boxing is one of those sports that aren't just about naationality. My fav heavyweight was Lennox Lewis and I'm american...but that doesn't make me unamerican for liking a british boxer...see what I'm sayin...I was even going for calzaghe to beat lacy because I felt calzaghe was a better boxer and not the next tyson of his weight class like lacy was fighting wise

        Don't forget Rocky Juarez he brought home a silver medal from the Olympics, and many felt he should have came home with the gold. His win over Barrera will be his gold medal.

            Cause boxing is becoming a dead sport in the states. In my school theres like only 3 people out of 4000 who box or have boxed. People call it boring only because they dont know how hard it is. While football and basketball are taking all the big boys there wont be a great american heavyweight in a very long time.

                well, some people are doubting Floyd and saying there will be an upset against a very focused Judah.
                From this point on, anyone Floyd fights and beats is proving that he really IS THE BEST out there and it shuts the critics up.

                  People dont hate floyd, they are just frustrated with him that greatness is there for his taking but he dont seem to want to take the risks.
