The UK has two fighters who are divisional number 1's.

Carl Froch (168.) and Carl Frampton (122) are the rightful rulers of their division and rated by Boxrec as such. So in 2 of boxing's 17 division, the UK rule. Remarkable when you consider that the US has only twice as many divisional leaders, despite having more than 5 times the population.

Further more, the UK has 2 fighters in the pound for pound top 12 (Froch and The Special One) the same amount as the USA.

I think it's time we correctly accepted the United Kingdom as the Mecca of boxing. :arran

 

Funnily enough I don't know the exact number. However, I do know a lot less of them fail drug tests than US fighters. :good

 

The US only has 4. Only twice as many despite having 5 to 6 times the population. Imagine how good we'd be with the USA's population and being allowed to juice by the BBBoC like US fighters are by their chip shop commissions. :think

 

Vietnam. :good

 

More options to juice? Yeah, I know because the BBBoC implements random drug testing. :good
