    Sven Ottke is a complete joke though.
    probably the most disgraceful.....boxe........no no, I can't, I'm not going to insult all the boxers from the past , the present and the future by labeling him as one.

    He's so boring to watch. I hope Zab returns to 140 and makes him run again.

    Its about ****ing time that Britain is just starting to get good at boxing, its taken far too long, only in the last 15 or so years have we started to consistently produce good fighters.

    I hope we keep this rate up.

    Can you come with any reason why this is happening? Did Lewis and Hameed got young brits interested to box or what?

    Considering that you guys INVENTED boxing, it's odd that Britain hasn't produced many good boxers until recently. In any event, congratulations.

    Perhaps, it all started with Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank in the very late 80's and we have been producing good guys since, before the late 80's who was there before?

    Henry Cooper?
    And before then?.....we'd need to go back to the late 1800's.

    EDIT: oh yeah, Lloyd Honeyghan and John Conteh wern't too bad either....compared to the US or even Mexico we have never historically done well.
