    Because Fielding v Rebrasse. Boxing ring is a Haymon-esque theater over there.

    The whole time we were running ****, I didn't feel the need to remind anybody once. 'Cause when you run ****, you don't always have to be reminding people you run ****.

    Kudos to the Brits for having the most belts right now but they aren't all the dominant guys at their weight class.

    Fury might be the man at heavyweight, although I expect Klitschko to beat him in the rematch. But for now, he has a decent claim, better than Wilder or Joshua at least.

    But cruiserweight isn't a British dominated division. Drozd is Russian. Glowacki is Polish. Lebedev is Russian. Makabu is South African and Usyk is from the Ukraine. None of the top guys are British.

    Same thing at light heavyweight. Kovalev Russian, Stevenson Canadian, Ward American, and Beterbiev Russian.

    Super Middleweight is a British dominated division with DeGale.

    But Middleweight belongs to Golovkin from Kazakhstan.

    Junior Middleweight is the ginger Mexican's country. If he moves up it belongs to Lara (Cuban) or Andrade (American).

    The welterweight kingpin is, assuming Pac and May are serious about retiring, Thurman, an American.

    Super lightweight belongs to Terence Crawford an American.

    Lightweight, well nobody is dominating there, but we might as well give it to Terry Flanagan a Brit for the moment.

    Super featherweight is Uchiyama's from Japan.

    Featherweight's dominant champion is Lomachenko from the Ukraine.

    Super Bantam belongs to Rigondeaux from Cuba.

    Bantamweight boss is Yamanaka from Japan.

    Super Flyweight is Inoue from Japan's.

    Flyweight is Roman Gonzalez' from Nicaragua.

    Top Light Fly is Donnie Nietes from the Philippines.

    And Minimumweight champ is some guy from Thailand.

    I'd say you have a right to boast about having three dominant champions, the same as Japan. But twelve is wishful thinking.

    Do not care about the origin of a boxer. I just like quality boxing. Hence why you'll never see me hating on any of those guys.

    In fact, I think it's poor form to hate on pro boxers, period. I mean, talk about technique, who's better, and what have you. But some guys are straight up disrespectful, and should seriously go spar some of these "cans" as some say and get a reality check. They could use it.

    Anybody who steps in that ring deserves respect. Yes, even Mr. Crumble.

    They aren't world champions. They are titlists. And Americans never gloated when they had dominant titlists.
