    None, primarily because pro boxing is illegal in Iceland. Hel, even boxing training was only legalised a few years ago. I suspect it all goes back to ancient Viking honour, where striking one's opponent in a fight was seen as cowardly.

    :lol: Is it less cowardly to just stick a sword in him?

    No **** Sherlock. Boy, ESB could really use more nuggets of knowledge like yourself to tell us the obvious. Since you're so educated, why don't you take a look at the post constructed from another wise ass like yourself which enspired me to ask the question.

    300, 000 people eh? I wonder if any or all of them are half as observant as you are.

    I was being sarcastic when asking this question of another poster from Iceland, who I felt was a bit too forthcoming when he described the current American list of prospects.

    Do you think any of them are better than ****? Maybe I was a little bit harsh, a few of these guys might make decent journeymen when they've left the club scene

    If Russia had a similar lack of talent I'd describe them as **** as well. It's nothing to do with country of origin, they are just **** poor I'm afraid

    It's ok, you have a proud history of producing heavyweights, I'm sure one will come along soon enough...

    Sorry, I know you've already explained yourself, and I'm okay with everything. Another poster found it necessary to point out the country's population and give me a geography lesson, because he failed to read where my comment came from.

    He accused me of shear ignorance, but apparently his idea of enlightenment doesn't involve reading before commenting.

    What is this so called "American Heavyweight prospect" thing that you speak of?

    I'm originally from some shithole in the middle of Africa in all probability. But my family have lived in the UK for centuries, so I am a Brit.

    Just like you are American. But just living in a country you were not born in is not the same. Basic, basic stuff:-( :-(

    I don't watch amateur boxing anymore, but aren't there any US HWs that makes any buzz?

    there will be
    americans just have to bide there time and a new great heavy will come through.

    america already has about 500 pro heavyweights boxing ,and sheer weight of numbers should dictate that 1 or 2 will make it to the top.

    :good - it would be much more interesting if there were more Americans in the division - especially if they were gifted. Lets see if it happens again.
