    There's a slight difference. I think Australia has the two forms of Rugby, Aussie Rules Football, Cricket, Soccer, Tennis, Golf, Basketball at least ahead. I'd probably say it's not in the top 10 sports in Australia.
    Boxing’s not ahead of football or rugby or cricket in uk and uk smaller but boxing better here by miles than Australia

      Do you understand that the UK has a larger population than Australia too? As in more than twice as large.

                  Poor trainers over there. Same reason Africa doesn't usually produce skilled fighters.

                      Three, well 2.5, codes of football take the best boxing type athletes for the best money then there are all the other sports taking what's left of the $. I do tend to agree that our trainers are not world class eg Horn's pretender. There is also the cultural aspect, many boxers are rough head inked bogans and not anywhere near 100% dedicated to their craft, they have to earn a living outside boxing, have a few beers with their mates and so on. Then there is the isolation thing with boxing being a world sport only the amateurs get some world class experience usually. Nothings going to change soon unfortunately.
