  2. Totally agree.

    Broner also schooled a brit last weekend, history proves american produce the greater fighters

    Look at the past greats

    Sugar Ray Robinson
    Mohammed Ali
    Sugar Ray leonard
    Rocky Marciano
    Joe Louis
    George Foreman
    Holyfield
    larry holmes
    Mike Tyson
    Micheal Spinks
    Hagler

    And there's current greats in Mayweather, Roy jones jr, Bernard Hopkins, Shane Mosley

    Meanwhile brits still go on about Henry Cooper because he put up a good fight against Ali. Lewis was the only great brit and Canada made him.

    It's a no contest I'm afraid.

    If you look at the top 20 current pound-for-pound ratings in BoxRec it list 3 British and 4 American. Really quite indistinguishable, if not more impressive for the Brits given the relative size of the countries.

    I always find that nationalistic flag-waving is comical. You have two groups of people, you're much more similar than different, arguing for their country's( a place they most likely were born into as opposed to choosing) achievements that they personally contributed nothing.
