    Ok, heres the rules. Pick a country and pick 8 boxers to represent it.

    Must all be different weights, lets say the old weight catergories or anyone who hits that category: Heavyweight, Light heavyweight, Middleweight, Welterweight, Lightweight, Featherweight, Bantamweight and Flyweight.

    Must have at least one boxer in there thats currently an active boxer.

    Whats the best team you can come up with!!

    The hell you do

    Ali beats Louis, Charles beats Foster, Robinson beats Hagler, Burley beats Robinson, Armstrong beats Whitaker, Saddler beats Pep, McGovern beats Ortiz, Wolgast beats Johnson. You lose, back to the lounge with you.

    Robinson would've whipped Burley's ass. Burley just wasn't quite handsome enough to share the ring with him.

    Crazy talk. Burley was beautiful in a way slick Robinson never was. He looks almost angelic, Robinson is an over-made ***** by comparison. It can hardly come as a surprise that a man with an actual prostitute in his avatar would think Sugar Ray Robinson was more handsome than Charley Burley.

    Guy looks like a half-a-***.

    Real men fight heavyweights.

    Typical USA arrogance! As an Australian we would step up to the plate in the first round, rest our stars and still beat both of those USA teams, with 100 per cent certainty!
