Hes one of those guys who came to America in his teens. Think thats why a lot of guys get confused because he "sounds" American But yeah, Mexican.
GGG is the truth Wlad is legit as he's proven Beterbiev might be very good Everyone else is average. Anyone that can take Kovalev's power and can box a little will beat him I hate how people suggest that EEs are like some invincible robots. Its just as flawed as when people say black people dominate sports. Its simply not true.
I'm half Russian, I've had a 2x4 fall off a roof hit me in the top of the head, flew up in the air off of a skateboard landing back of my head first into concrete, running in a park tripped went flying chin first into asphalt, took an full force axe handle blow to the jaw by accident, got jumped and took 2 hard rabbit punches to the back of my head. None of it even wobbled me, never been close to being knocked out, even though I'm not a boxer but I know I have a great chin, Russians are pretty tough, maybe not invincible but close.
also rans where?....Surely not the more competitive divisions. you old eastern euros have a loooooong way to go before ya'll can start talking **** about taking over anything...let alone boxing. Even your prospects are old America will always be at the Vanguard when it comes to the sweet science....it was perfected here. The lineage is here The heritage is here The gene-pool is here Just look at the boxing HOF and understand how FAR ya'll have to go:hi:
In fairness they weren't dominated the amateur game the way they do now 20 years ago. We've been hearing this for years you say but in truth everyone can see the number of great Eastern Bloc fighters turning pro has increased massively, 20 years ago America was at least second in the amateur game today their barely top 10 wait 5 years and the amount of Eastern European champions will be at least equal to America IMO.
in the runt divisions... and I believe Mexico is the next most successful nation (no surprise given the sanctioning bodies are based in the US and Mexico).
Honestly. I don't think we're gonna see EEs take over every weight division. Thats what I'm saying. Russians are known for being tough but so are Mexicans. That doesn't mean every champ in every division is Mexican. If anything eastern asians might take over every division. I really reallly doubt that too.
Yeah perhaps I'm using it incorrectly but what I mean is hes not gonna dominate his weight class like Wlad does the heavyweight nor is he going to be a p4p guy for long time/big draw imo What I'm saying is he's more than beatable.
