who are the three best boxers from your country at present?

Nigeria
Ajose Olusegun, Samuel Peter and Tony Salem for the future.

 

You don't look like a *****, you're not from this country. Common sense would dictate that English would be our official language. However, it mysteriously isn't.

 

This is a question to yourself, MrMagic and any other Scandinavian here.

Who is historically and currently the best Scandinavian country RE boxing?
Let us include Iceland (for what good it will do) and Finland in this.

 

Right oh, given that many if not most Americans and Mexicans and fair few Puerto Ricans are "from" Europe originally, I'm going to claim Cotto for Spain, Roy Jones for Wales (Jones is a Welsh name after all) and Kelly Pavlik for Germany. Gatti & Marciano for Italy, Duran for Scotland, Tyson for Belgium, Maquez for lower Saxonny, and Muhammad Ali for England. You cool with that?

 

I wouldn't call them Americans, but they are American citizens. Tito can come to this country without a passport, enjoys every U.S constitutional right, can vote in presidential primaries, and can run for president. Some of the rules here are weird.

 

Point is Margarito is ''american'' with all the technicalities in the book but he really is mexican.

 

Shamefully? How come? Because he has lost one fight in his career to an ATG?

Or because he is a decent and funny lad?

 

I agree.

 

The guy had damn puertorican underwear at the de la Hoya fight weigh-in,that guy is boricua to the bone for real.

 

Could someone from PR become American Pres?

 

If they were born after 1941 they could run for president.

 

Apparently yes.They will make Cotto run for house

 

But ARNIE can't? shocking!

 

There have been a few very good British boxers with Nigerian heritage too.
