    Cuba and Puerto Rico deserve to be mentioned as major boxing producing countries.
    As for the thread question, Panama.

    I think it's now about equal.

    I just think that regardless of whether you have Duran or Pacquiao greater, the point is both countries managed to produce high ranking ATG's.

    Without Pac it's Panama all the way.

    Panama only has Duran, Caballero, Jones and maybe a few others. PR should b there. As should Cuba. PR and Cuba are the 2 most impressive.

    Panama no doubt. BTW Donaire shouldn't count for the Phillipines he moved over when he was like 5. He learned to box in the US, came up in the amateurs in the US, fought the Olympic trials in US, and has had all but 2 of his fights in the US.
