This is one thing that has often bothered me...and I don't mean this as a personal slap Missy...so don't take it that way.

Why does everyone always get so up in the air over nationalities & boxing.

I just don't get it. Maybe I'm just an unpatriotic idiot or some shat...but honestly...if a man's a great fighter...I don't give two flying turds covered in corn where the hell he's from.

That being said...facts being a facts...Danny Williams is one to talk about a lack of talent coming from anywhere.

Anywho...I don't get the nationality thing...I never have...I suppose I never will.
I do and I don't.

If I was from the US or Europe, I might not because you guys pump out good fighters all the time. I know being up here in Canada, where we don't have so many, if one were to get to the top I would love that and favour him over the others because he is Canadian.

But nationality being used to talk about the sport as a whole just sucks I think. Boxing is such a solo, personal sport... why bring something as big as the country into it?
