    and people try to hate on american boxing. i'm not american but it makes me laugh to see brits and the like knocking american boxing when they know damn well that the majority of the all time greatest were americans and that america is, in fact, still the #1 boxing country by titles. god damn look at puerto rico! amazing, 7 titles with a country that small is insane.

    UK with a whopping 1 title out of a combined 4 countries hahaha

    gotta say though puertorico is the most impressive with a country that small to hold 7 titles is amazing.

    I find it interesting that he would put Viloria and Donaire in different countries. Aren't both from the United States but represent the Philippines in fights?

    Either put both in the USA or in the Philippines in my opinion.

    First of all, no disrespect to Puerto Ricans, but Puerto Rico is not a "country" but a commonwealth of the United States. Secondly, what you are pointing out, "with a country that small", I assume you are stating or conveying per capita, which means Armenia, with a population of approximately 2.9 million with 4 belts is no 1, again no disrespect to Puerto Rico or the other respectful countries.:good

    Very good insight Galang, I think the list is made based on birthplace, probably not even citizenship towards the respectful boxers country they live in.

    Yeah I just saw that. Viloria being born in the USA and Donaire being born in the Philippines made him determine where to place them. Just shows you how tricky this can be as both can claim to be either Filipino or American.
