Originally posted by Eff Pandas View PostThat region has always produced strong mfers so that part isn't surprising. But I think boxing has devolved a bit, fewer "boxers" around as that style gets **** on more (Sweet Pea Whitaker wouldn't be as popular imho if he was around today or get the fights he got back in the day, he'd be some higher level Erislandy Lara, Carlos Molina type cat who's overly avoided, that a whole other topic though) so guys with power & relentlessness can get further in the game then maybe they could in past eras. And that amateur program has just improved over the last several decades as Russians have been able to turn pro at all (I still remember Yuri Vaulin back in the 90's who was one of the first Russian pros) which is probably bringing talented coaches & bringing & keeping talented boxers to amateur clubs. I also wouldn't be shocked if there is some next level PEDs happening over there, but I'm pro PEDs so some might see that as a negative while I don't.
