4. Dominican Republic 1.33
5. Venezuela 1.12
6. Mexico 1.03
7. Cuba 0.98
8. England 0.89
9. Argentina 0.76
10. Australia 0.67
So basically, if you consider the population of the countries, Puerto Rico has by far the highest number of boxing world champions in history per capita than any other country in the world.
Bull!
Hmmm... let me guess. You coach debating teams for a living, right?

Hey my friend, some time ago we talked about these statistics and finally you shared them with me, and all of us. We just have to ask ourselves how many world champions we have had as neighbors (almost, less than 15 minutes drive), I had 2, Jose "Caguitas" De Jesus (I sparred with him while I was training for a kickboxing fight) and Juan Laporte.
Hey PRP! Good to hear from you. Wow! You sparred with "Caguitas" De Jesus. I remember seeing some of his first fights on TV. He was still fighting locally, I think. That guy had a HELL of a punch. I saw a couple of devastating KO's. He could have gone even further in his career, in my opinion. As for "boxing champion neighbors", I'd have to say that John John Molina was the closest. He's from Fajardo, which is about 10 minutes from here. I saw a couple of his fights in the Fajardo colisseum, and one in San Juan.
Oh yes, Caguitas was great!!! Unfortunately when he became a champion and gained some money, he also gained too much "friends". And, he followed the wrong path...
