America is no longer the home of Boxing

but yet show your face again on it when your prediction was a disaster

 

Those were hispanic/latino fighters supported by a mostly Mexican/Mexican American crowd.

 

Which happens to be THE biggest boxing fanbase in the sport. :deal

 

No way did HBO give free tickets away for Ward vs Dawson. Ward always sells out at home. Making up lies to suit your pointless anti-American agenda.

 

Cause you say so? lmao

 

All those Euros and UK hypes waiting to cometo USA and make a name for themselves DON't GET it TWISTED, we don't have fighters dying to go Europe or UK, its the other way around so you decide where is HOME of BOXING

BOOM!

 

America is not the be all end all anymore as boxing has become more global, but I do think at this moment in time Vegas is still the place to host big marquee matchups. The Klitschko's have success in Germany but let's not forget that some of that is out of necessity because American's, Mexican's and even Canadian's wouldn't show up to watch it. The heavyweight division is so stagnant, you guys across the ocean can keep it for now.

Let's take a look at other division's. At SMW the man to beat right now is Ward, do you see him going to Europe? Yeah, right. There is also a chance he will be moving up to LHW where the big fights would still be hosted in North America seeing as the likely opponents that he would face are Dawson, Pascal, Cloud, Campillo, Kovalev who just made the trip over.

At MW, two of the top European fighters just travelled to appear on HBO to make more of a name for themselves.

The lower down the list you go just gets more North American, with the exception of the far east fighters.

 

its only home of boxing cause of vegas. and it could be macau if macau had a functional fair sanctioning body.

is america home of boxing? yes. but not for long and its been trending away for a while.

 

America hasn't been the home of boxing for a long time, their isn't a home of boxing.

Every fighter should be aiming for Vegas but other than that America is the same as anywhere else in the world, the home fighter is almost always the favorite and is always the one who sells the tickets.

I don't understand why Americans don't come over to Europe, more people watch boxing over here and more money (other than the biggest events) is made.

 

I'm Irish you ****in silly Klittard!
And you're only saying that because you know America wants **** all to do with the sisters.
Try a bit harder Clitoris.:klitfanb::naughty

 

What are you talking about, all your HW's are dying to get a chance from a klitschko and fight him in germany. How many americans came to fight klitschkos in europe? Have you ever heard about steve cunningham- seems he doesn't think that america is home of boxing. Hernandez from cuba? ofcourse cooto, floy and manny don't fight in europe, simply because it's ****ing hard to even find grown up boxers that weigh that little. You can find good boxers from 160 lb up and also many important fights happened in europe in the higher weights.

 

1 ****ing division the klitchkos got their big break on HBO docu and showing their fight...

DOn't get it twisted, 1-2divisions ain't boxing...

ward dominated most of ur euros in one of your hottest divisions... so who cares about 1 lonely hw division.

 

Love how you've just lumped all of Europe into one big place, as though it's all the same

Of course the biggest fights are still in Las Vegas, they probably always will be. However, boxing is becoming more of a global sport, and European fighters are getting better and better. I never understood why Americans are so hostile towards all other nationalities?
