    in the cruiserweight i assume you're counting ola afolabi an american even though he said on british television this week that he said hes 100% british, so thats 37-10
    now lets take into account that USA is 5 times the size of uk, so
    37 divided by 5 is 7.4, ok then lets take into account the difference in grass roots facilities between usa nad uk, then thats about maybe
    UK10 USA5
    p4p uk twice as good as usa

    AND also may i add, you are taking the results from THE RING which is notoriously antieuro biased, from a more neutral source the results would be even worse

    What's the population of the United Kingdom?

    States is about 308 million so how does it work out ratio wise?

    there are 3 top 10 American heavys? That's a sad reflection on the HW division and still seems pretty bogus. Arreola, Chambers, Ruiz? :patsch

    America's population = 306,194,000 estimate
    United Kingdom's population = 58,000,000 estimate

    US = 38
    UK = 9


    If we take population into ratio the USA has roughly 5x the population of the UK


    So 9x5 = 45


    So if we had the same population it would be roughly

    UK = 45
    USA = 38




    Bitter pill to swallow :)
