Yes, but majority of the best fighters still fought in America. Only US promoters sign foreign fighters for the most. Until that changes no other country will having boxing on "lock" over America.
    All your boxers, Mexicans and European championships were talking about coming out here to fight a couple of years ago. DAZN’s money changed the game and shifted the paradigm back to the US.

I just root for boxers I like based on how they fight and what they are like as a person. I don't care where they live and don't favor American boxers over others. I like lots of English boxers. My favorite is Callum Smith. I think he is the best at 168 unless Bivol could beat him since Bivol says he can go to 168. If an American fights and Englishman I just root for the boxer I like the most and it might be the Englishman.
      Great post. I wish more Americans are like you. It’s just a pity that most Americans are ignorant.

        The Russian has a British passport and DAZN is a British registered company. Go play hockey and I hope Canada isn’t freezing in July because I heard the ice age never left that country, lol.

          But rugby...

          Dunn had just finished putting the monstrous former rugby leaguer and another international player through a basic agility drill. Normally the exercise would have taken two minutes, but because of the students' lack of football experience, it dragged on for a half-hour under the Florida sun.

          After about a minute of standing there looking at one another, they both tried to drink the Gatorade through their helmet, and literally splashed it all over themselves,"

          The physical shock was awesome. The first four weeks he was dying, just dying every day. And it was like, 'Nope, nope, that was the warm-up

          You could tell that he's never been in an intensive environment where your full-time job is to work out.

          Looool. At least you find it amusing that the song drunkards used to sing at London pubs is now your national anthem, lol.

          Is anything American original? Basketball is netball. American football is rugby. Baseball is cricket. American national anthem is a London pub song. American flag is the Union Jack with stars strangled on it. Your language is also borrowed. At least pay homage to your dad from time to time, mate. Loooool.

          If Maro Itoje and Ollie Lawrence were to play in the NFL, they’d be the best and most athletic players even without steroids, lol.

Other than insulting and pissing off Americans I don't know what you started this thread for or what you hope to accomplish. I am just a boxing fan and don't care about soccer, football or rugby. I thought this was a boxing board for boxing fans.
            A dad can’t insult his son. But he can put him in his place when he’s acting up and that’s what I’m doing.

It’s a British sport and it was about to stay at home the last few years if for because a British company, DAZN, decided to set up shop in America (due to population) and pour money back in the sport.

                The most passionate boxing fans are Brits. And Cuba produces the most technical boxers. Respect those who gave you a chance to become part of the sport. And stop acting like you know it all and everyone has to come to your country to become legit.
                Because Americans for the better part of century have dominated it. Get back to me when they haven't

                  We didn't invent the world, we just make it better.

                  And yes, I find lots of things drunk Brits sing about to be funny

                    Home advantage and fighting in their comfort zone. The olympics and world championships are better for judging talent.
