    I agree. Snaggle tooth'd cowards. They should most own it, not fight it. Right?

      UK has more world champions than the whole of Europe, Eastern Europe, and mainland Asia combined!

      And there are plenty more coming up behind them too.

        Khan just took one of the biggest risks in the sport. Fury just beat the guy who dominated the division the past 10 years. Joshua is fighting for a title faster than most guys expected. The lower division is littered with plenty of guys fighting champions or top contenders.

          The UK has made a big comeback recently but I still think bumbeater brook is more of a burden to their image than an asset

            When is Canelo going to stop hiding behind his fans and restore the honour of Mexican boxing by fighting Golovkin?

              Unfair to label British fighters as a whole because of one guy.

              Has any other country won as many world titles on Road than the U.K in recent memory?

              British boxing has plenty of champions and ex champions with balls.
              Ricky Burns for one.
              Jamie McDonnell was a big underdog vs Kameda twice and twice successfully defended his title in Texas of all places.
              Khan is fighting Canelo, nuff said there.
              Fury just went to Germany and dethroned Wladimir who had reigned for a decade.
              Nathan Cleverly, James DeGale, Groves, Murray, Mitchell and so on have plenty of balls.

              If anything other countries could learn a lot from the current Brit pack.

                  Eastern Europe has alot better prospect and all eastern European fighters fight overseas

                      No country has a lot better prospects than AJ, Eubank Jr, Stephen Smith ... etc

                      And UK fighters don't need to go overseas, we have great trainers and some of the best fans in the world too.
