    All i said Tito was that what your saying is your produce more champions based on population all i am saying if you look at the top 10 even top 20 all time greats i would say you proably have more US fighters then any country i not knocking you your right i just putting out a point. When i say from the US i mean born here Sugar Ray Robinson, Sugar Ray Leonard, Tommey Hearns and the list goes on people that were born here is what i meant sorry if i was not clear but that was what i was getting at.

    I have no disagreement with what you just said.

    Also if you look at how many Champions are in different weight classes i would have to say that the USA has that cover as well and in the main watch divisions we have had in the bag for the most part so its all at what your looking at i was just pointing out some things that is all.

    Again... based on the sheer numbers of champions the U.S. has produced, I have no qualms with that, either.

    Once again, it's when people start talking about the U.S., Mexico and England as being the only boxing countries worth talking about... that's when I pull out the stats.

    Boxing's huge in P.R., but no... it's not at the HS level or anything like that. There's a lot of young talent, and plenty of gyms for them to develop in. It's always been a wonder to me how we do so good at the pro level, but have had relatively little Olympic success. Regardless, there seem to be a lot of young prospects rising up through the ranks, to where I see there being a good P.R. representation at the world class level for many years to come.

    Just wondering becasue the Usa does not have gyms in HS well at least in southern California i was just wondering if PR did i think that Mexico might they are very into boxing and they people turing pro at very young ages but they might be the same way as us and dont have it envoled with school there i wonder why that is because it used to be in the schools and now its not i guess because they dont want people getting hurt and then everyone pointing at the school trying to get the money they dont have really sucks because it is a great to keep and shape.
