    Do they?

    'The Fighting Pride of Newbridge Wales' Joe Calzaghe
    Carl 'The Cobra' Froch
    'Simply The Best' Chris Eubank
    'The Dark Destroyer' Nigel Been
    'The Celtic Warrior' Steve Collins
    'Rampaging' Richie Woodall
    'The Grim Reaper' Robin Reid
    Glenn 'Catman' Catley
    'Brutal' Brian Magee
    James 'Crusher' Cook
    'Saint' George Groves
    James 'Chunky' DeGale
    Callum 'Mundo' Smith

    ^^ quite impressive when you consider all these from an area smaller than a lot of US states and none of them have ever tested positive for PEDs.

    Rather than be a Britain and Irish hating nationalist because Calzaghe schooled your heroes Lacy, Hopkins and Jones.

    List me 13 fighters who are better than these 13 who are:

    1. 168 lbs
    2. Have come from a smaller area then this.
    3. Haven't been found guilty of PEDS

    Here is some irrefutable statistics:- - From a previous thread

    USA has an area 3790000 square miles compared to UK which has 94060 Square miles. Despite being 40 times bigger than UK, they only managed to produce just 4 wins out of 21 World title fights :lol:

    Here is a list of fights taken place between UK and US SMW's for World Championships.

    The UK pretty much owns the SMW division, apart from Andre Ward, I would expect prospects like Callum Smith, Rocky Fielding and Frank Buglioni to beat up any US active SMW.

    Joe was the only one who was the true 168lb champ and that was after a decade of dodging the divisions other good fighters and titl holders and waited them out into retirement.

    So no.
