The skills a country or a locality predominantly encourage

Ricardo Torres not Kendall Holt mate

 

Theres also the Mexican warriors like Margarito, Andrade, Arce and in the past Chavez

 

Basing on the title of the thread, I'd say all countries formerly under Spanish influence are with "heart" or "never say die' attitude...

 

eastern europeans are technically orthodox and come to fight in hard rockin' shape.

american heavys are lazy!

i agree that british fighters definatly have the "battler" tendency. However, I also think i think a lot are very eccentric. hamed, calzaghe, froch, eubank, all are really one of a kind stylistically.

 

Colombians-punchers
Mexicans(latin fighters in general)-skilled inside brawlers
Eastern europeans-skilled come forward aggressive fighters.

 

Blacks are generally Defense first, hit and don't get hit

Mexicans are machismo balls in hand type fighters.

Euro's are stand up technical robotic style fighters. Not vey dynamic but very technically sound.

 

Kendal Holt is a patient defensive counter puncher with good tehcnique, he should not be mentioned in the same breath as Edison Miranda, Breidis Prescott.

Some of his fight have actually been booed, because of the cautious nature he fights in, most notably when he fought Anaoutis,David Diaz.

 

Eastern Europeans -- The most unathletic lot of all.

 

ever hear of Finito Lopez, Chiquita Gonzales, Alexis Arguello, Miguel Canto, Panama Brown, Jose Napoles, etc...

 

Central Asians (Uzbek, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Mongolian, etc.) tend to be offense-first fighters who try to land home run shots with accuracy rather than who try to set up their punches with jabs.

 

Camacho is from the streets of New York, trained by black trainers.
