    Wrong, Northern Ireland is in Britain...but it is not part of Great Britain which is England, Scotland and Wales.

    Not much to choose from from my country. Not too strange, considering that it's one of the countries where professional boxing is illegal.
    There's us, Iceland, Cuba, Iran and North Korea. Awesome. The axis of douche bags.

    1) Otto Von Porat
    2) Pete Sandstøl
    3) Steffen Tangstad
    4) Thomas Hansvoll
    5) Ole Klemetsen

    Two active ones:
    Cecilia Brækhus - she's the current WBA, WBC and WBO welterweight champion, and one of the best female fighters in the world IMO.
    Andreas Evensen - he's challenging Ricky Burns for his WBO belt in December, and after that, I believe more of you will know who he is.

    Northern Ireland is in UK, not Britain. I hope you know the official name of the country you live in.

    I'll save you the trouble of searching on the internet.

    "BRITAIN" - Just another name for the UK. Some British people are even confused by this, and exclude Northern Ireland from their description of Britain. It IS indeed in Britain.

    "GREAT BRITAIN" - Refers only to the main and largest island of the UK, which consists of England, Scotland and Wales. Can also be described as the "UK Mainland" or "British Mainland".

    OK, point taken. But isn't it stupid that "Britain" includes "Great Britain" and not vice versa?
