    I watched it before too, i taught it was some special olympics sport that only the morbidly obese were aloud compete in

    can you name one other sport where the 'athletes' need oxygen after playing for 10 seconds?:lol:

    muricans cant hide behind the iron curtain anymore, that's all

    they were never that good to begin with, it's just they cant monopolize the HW division anymore,

    like they still monopolize other sports, like basketball and baseball for example, they even have the nerve to call the american baseball championship ¨world series¨.

    pretty sure many of their legendary heavyweights would have been destroyed by accomplished amateur soviets or cuban legends like Felix Savon, if they had been allowed to become pro.

    They need to get their heads off their asses

    LOL, what a crock of bull****. So the Americans arnt dominating anymore because their best athletes go to other sports?

    I don't think so. The reason is because the traditional boxing countries couldn't grow people to Heavyweight, so there were no challengers. Brits and Germans are mostly around middleweight. Cubans and Mexicans are usually a bit smaller.

    Now that the commie boxers are allowed to compete, the heavyweight field has grown. The Eastern europeans are bigger and game.

    Its also interesting to see that the Welterweight division is the marquee division at the moment. Guess what, its full of americans.

    What a load of ****. The only reason America would win is because nobody else cares about NFL.

    Rugby players are a bit smaller, like someone else pointed out. Because they run for 80 minutes non stop. Those 300 pound guys can barely run for 10 seconds.

    They don't need oxygen after 10 seconds dummy. That right there shows you don't know what you're talking about.
