    Anderson, but he's facing opposition miles from world level at the present. Not quite sure how this prepares him for a potential eliminator with a Kabayel or Sanchez type

    Wrong. The usa has always been the greatest nation in the Olympic games which has hundreds of countries competing an has hundreds of different sports an events. Only China with its commie government run state sports programs have come close or matched the usa in recent games. Where’s your country in the medal table,son?

    Oh ****, you are actually right. Rugby is big in England.
    But it´s the only such sport that is popular in England that is dominated by big men.

    Yea, USA specializes in sports most nations have very little participation in.
    But if you look at the athletes in American football, basketball and baseball, then you will see a huge number of talented giants.
    And in America, the talented youth athletes have strong programs for those sports, unlike boxing.

    The best (big )athletes in America are in the NBA, NFL and MLB.

    You'll probably see Halley's Comet come round again first....


    Similar to, England having as much chance as winning the world cup as America has of having another dominant world champion anytime soon.

    My country has about 5 million people. USA as of today has 331 million. I'd be concerned if you didn't get more medals in an event played once every 4 years against us. I also shouldn't be surprised I have to explain the difference between a sport and the Olympic games to an American, but here we are.

    You might get a titlist again once the titles split, but being THE champion, no, not a chance. Boxing in the US at the grass roots just can't compete for the best athletes, why on earth would anyone choose boxing over NFL and the NBA.

    We might even see a talent drain in lower weight classes as now collegiate level athletes can receive sponsorship and endorsement deals worth millions per year. You've got a collegiate gymnast right now making more money than most top US pro heavyweight boxers. Jared Anderson wishes he was raking in that kind of money, where one endorsement earns them more money than he makes from any fight he's had to date.

    Everyone was hyping Anderson, but he was just yet another american HW hypejob fraud

    I had hopes for Torrez maybe, but he was exposed as nowhere near good versus Vianello. He needs to move down a weight division, he'll get bashed up by top 20 HW's

    There's nobody! When you see it's an American heavyweight fighting you just expect them to be terrible. Heavyweight boxing is too global now, american HW's have been surpassed and are now a laughing stock.

    It'll be at least 10 years or maybe even 15 or 20 years.

    Yet you can't produce any half decent contenders.

    Devon Young. Kashaun Davis, Joshua Edwards, Jeremiah Milton are coming baby. they are DA FUTURE

    They are gonna do it FOR DA CULTURE, ya heard

    ya feel me Markus @MarkusFlorez99

    and you already know Wilder would still be champ if it hadn't been for the loaded gloves, drink spiking, heavy costume, gypsy magic, poisoning, disloyal trainer, slow count.. They cheated!

    PS, all the best american athletes are playing NFL, Basketball and video games and eating fast food. We would dominate the HW division if there was no Mcdonalds, KFC, and no NBA or Xbox. No other countries have other sports, yall just do boxing..

    You can't compare those bums to Edwards, he's the only person I've seen in years besides Teremoana make Jalolov work and it was with footwork. You can't see the talent
