    your reasoning is all backwards mate. it's not a coincidence that the divisions that receive the most attention in america happen to be the ones with the most american fighters

      Ok, we're talking about a few fighters here. Do LSC and Canelo mean Mexicans are "taking over" boxing?

        Their Youth look promising as well.

        Cuba, Russia, Kazakhstan, Ireland, Ukraine, Uzbekistan are the leading nations currently in my opinion. (In no particular order)
        I would love to see more pro boxers from Uzbekistan,Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan.K2 promotions can promote them well.Btw why Medzhidov did not participate World Championship?I would love to see him as a Pro as well .

            Somebody has to target those markets. Uzbekistan is full of power punchers with technique. So hopefully we start seeing more fighters from these countries turn pro. We'll have even more different types of styles in professional boxing, which is only going to help not hurt.

            Medzhidov had an eye injury if I'm not mistaken. He would have been a good pro. I doubt we ever see him in professional boxing unfortunately.

                    america doesn;t really have a nationality. we're a nation of immigrants. most born in the US have only been here for a few generations at most. importing talent is what we've always done.


                    you don't get that "tiny little island" phenomenon, like the brits, who were inbred for several thousand years
                    yea but those "inbred" Brits on a tiny island had the biggest empire ever. maybe being a nation of mongrels aint such a good idea. go to Columbia and you will see
