True.....but about those big time British boxers that never quite pan out?
The pool from which the talent emerges is much smaller, so you can not really make that argument. The fact that we are at all successful in so many International sports, considering the small size of our population, is pretty astounding really. People mock a lot of British fighters as nearly men, and gallant losers etc, but the fact that so many over the last hundred years make it into the ring for world title fights in the first place is an achievement in itself.


Yeah..... I know exactly where you're coming from.
