    Countries with the most amount of current, active registered boxers
    1 Mexico
    2 USA
    3 Japan
    4 UK
    5 Thailand
    6 Phillipines
    7 Tanzania
    8 Argentina
    9 India
    10 Colombia

    So Tanzania, India and Colombia massively fail at boxing. To have a large amount of boxers and not have a single one in the top 10 in any of the 17 divisions is pretty appalling, there's no excuses for that.

    Predictably, they are all completely terrible. That's why you dont know:lol: You don't see the low level guys that aren't good enough to get anywhere.

    I’ll go to bat a bit for Tanzania, they’re a little hard done and have some tough guys in the lower weights. If any of those guys get a champ, I’d bet it’d be Tanzania.
