Countries With The Most Current Pro Boxers

When I can be bothered I'll do them as percentages of the population, out of interest

 

Interesting that Ukraine has only 288 but 3 of them are world champions

 

More as a matter of interest, for me to potentially reflect on why certain nations have higher levels of population entry into the sport , regardless of talent level

 

Over 1 % !!!

 

you should include ams.

 

Boxing holds a different place in different cultures.
I'm totally shook that Australia has that many pro boxers

 

Ippo generation.

 

India has that many boxers? I don’t see any of them highly ranked.

 

With the high population that India has there's bound to be a portion of them that take up boxing, even if none of them are ranked at all.

 

Surprised to see only 12 active fighters from Lithuania. 2 of them are, or have been contenders in recent years, the other 10...all losing records. Overall record of 65-363-1 among the 12. Tomato can capital of the Boxing World?

  England and Mexico have a lot of boxers. Russia on the other hand does not, yet they have done admirably well on the world stage (credit to the Soviet school of boxing).

 

Thanks a lot! Yeah the Soviets knew how to box, who's your favourite boxer from the Soviet school? The Soviet style is often used synonymously with the more upright , less creative European styles (historically - you get all kinds of fighters from all over today)

I was always surprised by India's low participation in boxing, I know having such a massive population can skew the numbers, but they have an unbelievable sporting culture, their passion for the sports they invest in is second to none, yet there isn't really a domestic or international boxing scene there
