  • By the end of the month the UK could be down 3 champs

    Brook

    Smith

    Crolla

    It could've been four but BJS is holding the belt hostage. I always thought the number of world champs the UK had was overrated since they only have on linear champ.

    it is an inflated number because of warren's "special relationship" with the WBO and hearn's with the IBF. the UK is now probably the second largest boxing market so the sanctioning bodies want their cut

    however it's still a very strong generation of british fighters. our talent pool seems to be getting deeper by the year

      You evidently don't like British boxers. Why?

        That's what happens when you always fight the best. Unlike the Mexicans and Americans who always cherry pick the **** out of things.

          I do like British boxers. I just think touting the 14 world champs was kinda overrated. Especially when only one is a linear champ. Frampton and Joshua are my two favs. I wanna see what Callum can do on a higher level but I like him too.

              No shame in that if it happens. Canelo and Linares are great opponents.
              If Brook decides he needs to move up and vacate, then it is what it is.

                Man you're too ******.

                It was a big step up from the point of view of Brook and Liam. They took on the biggest challenge out there for them. I'm not talking about the view from Canelo and GGG's side.

                Understand now?

                  Canelo choose Liam because he was the most vulnerable champ at 154 and GGG choose a welterweight. Both were cherry picks and both came from the UK.

                    Yeah, you're one of the simple ones. I won't bother you any further.
