The Third British Empire

[Zaroku]

Look at the instigator of the troubles in the world....it's your race the ***s...especially the orthodox ....immaculate sex where they put a hole through the sheet so they imitate the ****** Mary...different drains to everybody else because they think there **** is superior to everybody not from there religion...Women shave there heads and wear a silly wig....zaroku if your gonna start throwing insults about you need to look at your religion lol.....money hoarders and proper shylocks.....I'm Church of England and English through and through but to comment on my country then you need to least educate yourself....it's a fallacy that Muhammad is the most popular name and after last time you said that I actually looked it up out of curiosity...it's actually 19th.....but look at America....full of mexicans,Chinese,inbred and Donald trump lol....English will always be the race that changed the world.....don't bring religion onto this site because there's a lot of people who don't like the ***ish race my friend..... We are the leading nation in boxing at the moment so get use to it !!!

I think the Church of England is great. England is awesome for bringing in the Somali's, and spreading the Religion of Peace. I wonder how well off Britain would be if ***s didn't pull the strings of power. Are you on the dole now?

I think it is a shame that Brits who are themselves on the dole, look down on immigrants who are on the dole. People need their benefits.

Yes right now there are many great UK boxers. If only Amir Khan had a better chin, you might have another paper champion. I love Tyson Fury, he is a character, I believe he will defeat Wlad again. I think Joshua is a beast. He is a true Brit!

I was hoping Scotland would go it's own course. Oh well!

I was hoping to spark debate about such a (relatively) small nation has ended up with such a disproportionate share of the main world title belts.

I therefore included the main bodies world title belts without ignoring world champions that posters on here believe to be terrified of other fighters.

Could be a freak anomaly, or could be the result of the funding and training that has been invested in the amateur and school boy levels.

Could be that uk promoters have got good at picking easy routes with agreeable governing bodies.

But if it is preferable we could just try and throw around national and religious stereotypes.

Is there a separate forum for adults?

The tiny Islands of Great Britain conquering the world is not a new phenomenon, it has happened twice in our long and distinguished history already.

That would put their family joint sixth behind just; the UK, US, Mexico, Japan and Russia!

The slogan has often been, “The Brit’s are coming!”

The Brit’s are now here. And they are, once again, ruling the World.

You say you are proud because your nation murdered, enslaved, committed genocides, and robbed people of their riches?

[Zaroku]

Maybe a combination of things.

Tyson Fury is a decent fighter! I love him in his interviews.
Eubanks Jr is a great fighter. His dad was one of my idols.

Plunger is my buddy! I like him. He is cool!

Boxing is my religion. And many of the Lords of Boxing are British. I love England. London is a great city. The British museum has amazing works of plundered art & artifacts. As a Yanker, half yank and half wanker, I have enjoyed my time in London. I may have to visit again this year.

Have a pint on me buddy. Shalom

The tiny Islands of Great Britain conquering the world is not a new phenomenon, it has happened twice in our long and distinguished history already.

In December, Tyson Fury and Billy Joe Saunders collected World Title Belts at Heavyweight and Middleweight (historically the #1 and #2 glamour divisions), swelling the roster of Great British World Champions to twelve men, and prior to the IBF’s crazy decision to strip Fury of its title around a week after he won it, a total of FIFTEEN of the world title belts.

But in this world of fragmented, where does that see the British Empire stand against the American’s and Russian’s, and of course the lower weight superpowers Mexico and Japan?

Looking just at the four main recognised world championship bodies, the WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO, and the all important Ring Champion’s, we should see five belts per weight division. Sadly the WBA deem that five world champion’s per division is not enough and so have three belt’s available at each weight class, Super/Unified, Regular and Interim World Championship’s are on offer, bloating us to the potential of seven “World” champion’s per division ,so across the seventeen weight’s there are a total of 119 belts available.

At present, twenty four belts are vacant, bringing our total down to 95. Fourteen of these belt’s presently reside in the UK, with Tyson Fury holding WBA Super, WBO and Ring Heavyweight titles, James DeGale holding the IBF portion of the Super Middleweight title, the aforementioned and newly crowned Billy Joe Saunders as WBO Middleweight Champion, Liam Smith holding the same title at Light Middleweight, Kell Borrk’s IBF Welterweight title, WBA and WBO Lightweight title’s for Anthony Crolla and Terry Flanighan respectively, Welsh Wizard Lee Selby waist is adorned by the IBF Featherweight Belt, and then we have two titlist’s at both Super Bantamweight and Bantamweight in Carl Frampton (IBF) and Scott Quigg (WBA) at the higher weight and Jamie McDonnell (WBA) and Lee Haskins (IBF) at the lower weight.

This impressive haul becomes even more impressive when you tally up the belts for the other nations, the UK stands proudly at the top of the list, followed by Mexico with ten belts, and Japan and the USA sharing third place with nine belts apiece.

Given that few people accept that the WBA “interim” title is a genuine “World” title, and that the Ring Magazine Title is not a belt that has a governing body behind it, my analysis saw me set these two belts aside. This would leave us with 85 titles across the 17 divisions, of which just 11 are vacant, meaning a total of 74 belts. By country the results are equally startling:

Exc. Ring & WBA Interim
UK 13 18%
Japan 9 12%
Mexico 8 11%
USA 8 11%
Russia 7 9%
Cuba 3 4%
Thailand 3 4%
Germany 3 4%
Puerto Rico 3 4%
Kazakhstan 2 3%
Philippines 2 3%
Domincan Rep. 2 3%
Argentina 2 3%
Ukraine 2 3%
Venezuela 1 1%
Nicaragua 1 1%
Canada 1 1%
Poland 1 1%
South Africa 1 1%
Sweden 1 1%
Uzbekistan 1 1%

74



Almost one-in-five of the current “World” titlists hail from the British Isles, for such a tiny portion of the world’s population to hold such an inflated portion of the is truly remarkable, and something that could actually increase with the prospects that are coming through in Britain.

The likes of Callum Smith and Anthony Joshua would be expecting their futures to be adorned with large, shiny belts, and the likes of Tony Bellew, Nathan Cleverly, George Groves, Martin Murray, Chris Eubank Jnr and Amir Khan are set to be joined by the returning David Haye as people that will be aiming for a title shot in 2016.

Indeed Callum’s brother Stephen has a tilt lined up for March to become the second “Smithy” to collect world honours. You’d be a brave man to bet against the Scouse family holding 3 belts by the time Big Ben chimes away 2016.

That would put their family joint sixth behind just; the UK, US, Mexico, Japan and Russia!

While I get that this might be a pride thing, I red K'd you anyway for a bait thread.

People like you, are the reason people like me (A non Brit Fury fan) have to put up with morons in the USA hating Fury/Cheering for Wilder for nationalistic reasons.

People like you are what's wrong with boxing. Let that crap go and just enjoy the fights without making it "us vs you" outside of the ring.

Have you read my post, or subsequent posts. I am intrigued as to how a nation of around 60m has managed to claim almost 1 in 5 of the titles available.

Is that bait?

I'm shocked that it became a us vs uk crapshoot, but then it seemed to turn around and the two people that seemed intent on offending each other are now trying to arrange their first date.

Thanks for the red k, whatever that is or means, and my apologies if raising a discussion about boxing on a boxing forum offends you.

At least you didn't assume I was advocating genocide like the other fella.

Is this normal for this forum?
