    No such thing. Otherwise, it's a worse level.

    This debate is irony at its best...

    No one has the guts to say it out loud but the Euro-level vs American-level debate is mainly a :

    " Black fighters vs White fighters " discussion for most here.

    Black = better than White for many here. They don't have the guts to say it and be called out as racists....

    But many claim that Lennox Lewis was the best European fighter of all time.

    10 pages and finally the root of the thread is delivered! Thank you. Most likely the OP is a jealous white man (judging by the euro-level beauty on his avatar) and cannot comprehend through his mindless brainwashing by ESPN and other american sports media that white men from europe are athletic and talented enough to be dominating boxing in the upper divisions at the moment. Cowards like him throw out a litany of excuses such as the NFL, and NBA take the best american athletes with no proof whatsoever. Just face it man, every ethnicity will have great fighters, accept it and move on.

    hhhhmm off the top of my head, an unknown honeygan stopping unbeaten p4p no 3 Curry in the states, benn annihilating barkley in the states, mcclellan was also in the ring top 10 when benn beat him, mini tyson beaten by slappy, nunn lost to rocchigiani, michalczewski stopping griffen and im sure there are plenty more, if americans had to do a bit more fighting on the road it could even be a landslide :yep, or should i say definitely would be, michalczewski also beat virgil hill

    Euro-level is a term coined by insecure Americans!!!!

    Nothing more or less.

    When the Americans are hyping one fighter after fighter only to fall to a fighter from what the perceive to have less boxing history, they invented the term euro- level. Example - Dawson, Williams.

    Just as Europeans term American- level for soccer skills denoting mediocrity.

    Americans using the kessler and abraham fights over and over again to try to justify something, eh reality check, calzaghe already did a job on kessler, but he didnt need to headbutt him in the process, as for dirrell we hear the same stuff again and again and then froch does a better job on abrahan than dirrell did!! LOL plus it was in a neutral venue, so if thats all youve got its pretty sad :hey

    european level has alot of pros and becoming euro champ is very underrated.

    Thats exactly what Im saying. Ive met so many pussies like you at the gym or at school who think that black guys are so much more athletic and you almost cower in their presence. You then see white guys from Europe/Russia dominating our black Americans boxers and you cannot accept that (because youve been told your entire life white men cant jump, dance, ect..) and throw out all kinds of excuses like all potential american boxers are in other sports, NBA, NFL and so on.
