    They got 7(seems to be magic number)
    Pacquiao
    Nonito
    Mayol
    Penalosa
    Concepcion
    Domingo
    Nietes
    Mexico still has 4 time as many as the phillipines.

    Can someone please tell me how in the hell the UK is leading this poll. There are a few good fighters from there but after the top 3 or 4 their depth is real weak, u can make a case for them only having 4 world class fighters as Afloabi,Rhodes,and Mitchell barely make the cut.
    SHould have made this poll open to the public, This just shows you how many biased englishman we have on ESB.

    I think they know how much Fanning hates British fighters and they're trying to wind him up, I agree with you about Mexico though.

    just their best guy, after tbat they really arent that impressive, Nonito is good but he needs to step up and fight a quality fighter. In a few years the Phillipines will be looked at like any other country when it comes to boxing talent. I think Mexico will be no 2 for quite a while

    Mexico
    Marquez Pac Marquez arguably won those 2 fights
    Margarito Nonito Nonito seems to have the momentum but Margo has beaten many more impressive opponents.
    Vasquz Penalosa both on the downslide Vasquez more highly regarded
    Marquez Mayol this is not even close still think Marquez has a lot left and will beat Vasquez in their upcoming fight
    Montiel COncepcion again no comparison Montiel clearly better
    Soto Domingo ^ same this getting repetetive here
    Mares or segura Nietes ^ same thing Mexico clearly above

    Oh thats it i got another 20 world class mexicans to name but we seemed to have run out of phillipino fighters.:patsch
