I agree w/ your list, especially the top five and the fact that you have Japan in there.

Japan is a very underrated boxing country. Yamanaka is one of my favorite fighters, he can punch/box and is always in exciting fights.

Same goes for Ioka, that guy is a beast and one of the best bodypunchers in the sport. Haven't seen Yaegashi fight in a minute, but I saw him fight Edgar Sosa last time out and he looked very good.

I always remember Yaegashi b/c he had a f*cking sick fight w/ this Thai guy a few years ago (the Thai's name I couldn't come close to spelling, it definitely had Porn in it though lol).

It was violent and won FOTY in a few places I think.

USA is number one. Then Mexico then Cuba then Russia and Ukraine. Russia and Ukraine will take over in the next 10 years though. Their amatuer program is awesome.

nice list, just that thailand should be under the philippines, japan under uk, and I cant believe you forgot donaire

Great list but I will switch Russia for the U.K.



BTW: I agree with everything else.

i think the UK tops Argentina.Phillipines could be higher lets not forget Donaire.

This is my point of view so I don't need butt hurt people. Anyways my list goes:

1. USA (Floyd Mayweather, Mikey Garcia, Danny Garcia, Timmy Bradley, Andre Ward, Bernard Hopkins, Omar Figueroa, Keith Thurman)

2. Mexico (Juan M Marquez, Saul Alvarez, Miguel Vasquez, Leo Santa Cruz, Jhonny Gonzales, Juan F Estrada, Salido, Molina)

3. Japan (Kameda Bro's, Takashi, Uchiyama, Muira, Yamanaka, Yaegashi, Ioka, Takayama)

4. Cuba (Rigo, Barthelemy, Lara, Abril, Gamboa)

5. Argentina (Maidana, Martinez, Reveco, Cuellar, Narvaez)

6. UK (Stuart Hall, Scott Quigg, Frampton, Burns, Murray, Froch)

7. Russia (Gradovich, Allakhverdiev, Provodnikov, Kovalev, Lebedev)

8.Germany (Sturm, Stieglitz, Brahmer, Hernandez, Huck)

9. Thailand (Saengthep, Kaovichit, Rungvisai)
