    I know this is national trolling for the most part, and a couple of these beltholders shouldn't really be counted because of their lack of significance in reality (WBA interim and regular for instance), but Greater Britain is definitely doing something right lately. And yes, I do believe it has a bit to do with stricter drugtesting as well, although a good number of Brits have been found to be dirty as well.

    I didn't include interim. And Britain's only regular is McDonnell, who was unfairly stripped of the IBF and would be WBO but Kameda was unfairly stripped before they fought. Plus McDonnell is probably the only regular who could beat the Super (Payano), so in my view that's far more legit than someone like Broner who just gets given Super because he's a Yank hype job

    Take away regular, however and Brit still leads but this time by 2 titles :deal

    The scales :lol::lol::lol:

    He missed by 5.5lbs because he was petrified of lighting Lee and would rather eat himself into obesity than face him.

    You have to go back to the days of Figg and Broughton to see similar dominance. I never thought I'd see such a golden generation of fistic talent.

    Truly makes you proud to be British. We've never had it so good.

    Viva U.K.! Not only do you guys have some of the most flamboyant, colorful fighters and boxing commentators in the world, but you also have class and you have great women. Hasn't been a fighter like Naz since and not sure if there ever will be. I salute you.

    The UK does have pretty good commentators.

    Ahh hans, in a way I do admire your dedication to the UK vs USA trolling.

    In the spirit of which, isn't Floyd retired? If he is stripped things could get even worse for our trans-atlantic cousins. ;)

    Yeah, just like we have the best refs and judges? :hey

    In fairness though the vast majority of boxing commentators are poor, thats not a UK thing specifically.

    Leo Santa Cruz is a Mexican champion like Joe Bugner was a Hungarian champion.

    Cruz came to the U.S. as an infant. Lived his entire life in California. Learned to fight in the U.S. Fought for the U.S. national team. Lives in California today. And is an American citizen.

    But that would tie the U.S. for first and would mess up the troll war. :hi:
