    but both those fights also involved an american.

    they had to fight an american to excell.

    vs someone less exciting than brewster, they have looked much less exciting.

    brewster has been exciting also vs different comp.

    as is said: all very good fighters.

    and adamek is an exciting one (with an american style of boxing).

    but this is not about being good.

    its about providing memorable fights. like say bowe vs holy.

    have you read my post???

    i said both the LATIN and the AMERICAN FGHTERS did their part in making memorable boxing fights.

    both torres and cotto are latin. as are barrera and morales. chavez vs taylor ......one was latin one was american.

    now where were the euros??

    You try to hard to discredit them:rofl

    And the Euro's have been relevant for less than a decade.

    Your standards are too high to meet.

    i just pointed out facts.

    and i have pointed out the success the relevance of the euros.

    but as you said: they have not been able to meet the standarts that the latins and US fighters have said.

    and that was my point.

    I think it's plain to see that most exciting fights are between two Amercians, or at least one of the fighters being an American in the match.

    All the American Heavies are playing other sports....just keep using that as your excuse.
















    Yet no mention of the many Euro's holding belts at lower weight classes.

    yes, i talked about the great memorable fights........to which as you seem to point out eastern euros have not been able to contribute to.

    unlike the us and latins.

    and that was my point.:good
