Bullshit . The euro's have simply started recovering from two world wars and the iron curtain coming down . It has become a global sport instead of an American one pretending to be .

This.
Lots of poverty and hunger in the east as well. They've just started to get their passports.
Poverty and hunger. As in, it seems to be a breeding ground for great boxers. A way out of it.

not a fan of chisora....
but him being a zimbabwean has exactly what to do with anything exactly
-
Im making a point that Zimbabwe isnt exactly a hotbed of boxing talent and history
-
I don't know if any of you guys have boxed. It's brutal getting punched. As tough as the NFL is it's still better than getting punched. Black athletes in the US dream of being a football player and not a boxer.

You think he's ready?
I'm not sold on him.
I love his recklessness though.

i think deonte is being very carefully managed,,,, i think he has a problem with his chin, i read or heard an interview saying such

scott didnt actually lose i you watch the fight you will see he was on one knee waiting on the count to get to 9
-

that's kinda what my concerns are about him. He needs to campaign for another 2-3 years..take some more shots, build up grit under heavy fire then he'll be ready for a title go.
put him in there now vs Wlad and he'd get demolished.
He has great potential though.
-
he was ktfo with head gear
but so were bute, tua, etc

felix savon brutally ko'd david tua with head gear on with a small right

Ken Norton had a solid build for a heavyweight too.
-
Remember when Ken Norton broke Ali's jaw winning the first fight? He really had an odd fighting style crossing his arms in defense. He really paid for all the battles he was in like so many other fighters.

Klitschko has happened to them. ::)
;D

NFL and NBA.
Yeah NBA and NFL didn't exist in the 70's , 80's ,90's ::) .
The problem is gyms closing all over America , our gym is free and barely surviving( thanks to sponsors ) , it's hard to pay rent ,utilities , buy equipment .....etc when you don't charge a cent to the fighters , unlike MMA guys most boxers come from poverty and broken families ,most of these kids don't even have money to buy a pair of boots let alone have money to pay for a membership.
Just google ''boxing gym closing'' and you'll see , this has been happening for the last 20 years.

The talent pool in the USA is going after football and basketball money instead of boxing. Shit, they are even going after rap careers now instead of boxing. Take half of the NFL and NBA and train them in soccer in youth leagues vs peewee football and basketball camps and watch how many World Cups the USA would win.
-

What did the contracts look like back than? There are plenty of source elements and articles on black talent going after nfl, nba and even rap career money vs not boxing in their youth now.
::)

Ali took too much rope a dope effected his head but I think the best ever.

::) Did you not read the point about the wars and the iron curtain . fact is there were barely any fighters period over 200 pounds prior to the last 25 years . Boxing is a global sport right now and the USA is simply competing with opposition that didn't exist prior to the mid 90s .

that's he's ruthless and fearless? or something else?

Thats Tommy Hitman Hearns p4p one of the hardest hitters ever, welterweight champ ended up fighting as heavy as cruiserweight. Out of the famous Kronk gym.
-
I'm just assuming that the HW ranks in boxing for US fighters has declined because everyone is or is training to cage fight now since HW boxing is now boring in comparison.

P4P, one of the hardest punchers in boxing, Hearns had a right cross from hell.

Actually most people i know consider 2 men in underpants wrapping their legs round each other to be boring and most prefer a stand up fist fight which is what boxing is, you obviously like watching 2 men wrapping their legs round each other so have fun.

Ground hog "game" sucks - boxing rules.

Not the same person...
What happened to them....generation nothingness happened to them. They, the American HW's, have shitty work ethics, horrible influences and a wannabe thug mentality. The best of them rely heavily on their genetic strengths. Very few of them learn the art of boxing or have the discipline. Their focus is on other shit all together. I guess you could sum it up by blaming hip-hop culture. The bottom line is none of them want to hear criticism, none of them want to work hard, they are more interested the life style of a pro athelete and not the actual effort involved.They all wanna hear about how great they are after trouncing 25 or 30 tomato cans. Most of them fall apart after one loss.
It's funny how shit talkers always say they are emulating Ali...but they never learned how to jab, slip puches, dance and move or even rope-a-dope like Ali, only how to shit talk.

that is the prince charles that james toney ktfo

haha oh wow.
Why would you want to emulate ali, fight with hands down and take punches needlessly.
-
They don't lift.

That was only the 74-80 version of Ali.
Why would you want to emulate him? Because he was great. He was in fantastic condition, worked his ass off. Was tough as hell. Had fast hands and a decent punch. All that other bullshit was for show. He was a great boxer.
Plus he fought anybody and everybody. He cleaned out the division...Can you imagine Ali being a champ and allowing somebody else in the division to call themselves champ too. No fucking way. Today there are 3 and 4 champs per wt class. The point of being a champion is totally lost on todays fighters.

better question is what happened to all heavyweight boxers division sucks. fights are slow and boring. every fighter seems to be employing the james bonehugger smith vs tyson strategy. the lighter weights put on much better fights see glenn tapia vs james kirkland just lately for a good entertaining fight.
