Btw, Philippines now has 5 reigning world champs

We are used to having none... those were the days.

 

I think puerto rico has several as well....

 

I think USA, Panama, Puerto Rico and Mexico has 5 or more reigning titleholders...
.

 

Oppsss... Panama only has 3 reigning champs currently... Celestino Caballero, Guillermo Jones, and Anselmo Moreno...
.

 

i just hope that this wont irritate non-pinoys here. i think its just normal for us to be happy for the success our guys havin right now. :good

 

Could have sworn Viloria was American.

 

It is such a great achievement. Very nice :thumbsup.

I see Cuba being the next country to rise, but don't forget about Panama, a country with somewhat overlooked champs like Guillermo Jones, Anselmo Moreno, Celestino Caballero, Nehomar Cermeno and introducing Luis Concepcion, who might have a very bright future.

Boxing is dying yeah... well, it's not. :happy

Up until recently, Panama had Cordoba as well. Damn nice little boxing country there- I wonder how much influence Duran had in getting kids to fight there?

 

He is, they just like to claim him since hes a champ

 

:nono, i see nothing special from any of the fighters (except rigo, but he might be too old).

 

Mexico have about 8.

What the ****? I didn't know Sonsona/Lopez was for the WBO belt. I thought Lopez vacated.

 

pacman mania will lead to so many pinoy children entering the gym to train. ten years from now pinoys will hold nearly all the belts i predict
