There have been highly successful boxers of all races. In my own opinion, race is irrelvant when it comes to saying who makes a better boxer. It comes down to amateur experience and mentality.
Naseem Hamed, probably Britain's most popular boxer of all of the 1990's and early 2000's (slightly before the Ricky Hatton and Joe Calzaghe era), was an Arab long time world champion who is one of the best fighters I've ever seen. He had one punch knockout power, similar to Sergey Kovalev today but of course he was a featherweight so a much smaller man. He could take a guy out with one shot and he did, most of the time.
Amir Khan is another example of a successful South Asian boxer. He is good, but not great like Hamed was.
Part of the reason there aren't more Middle Eastern or South Asian boxers is because the sport is not very popular in those countries and there exists no infrastructure to support pro boxing. Its not that the athletes don't have talent, it's that the sport just isn't there. Every so often you see Arab, Turkish, andNorth African medalists in the major amateur tournaments but many times these guys don't go pro.
what a completely ******** Post.One of the worst posts Ive ever seen. Race is not 'irrelevent' at all. It's very relevant, because there is clearly superior races and superior nations when it comes to fighting. There has clearly been far more successful boxers by some races than there has others, so I don't know why you are lying and being a snowflake. Whites- there's been tons of highly successful boxers, Blacks - there's been tons of highly successful boxers. South Asians, and Arabs cannot fight to save their lives, they are completely hopelessly embarassingly useless at boxing.
If Naseem Hamed was 'one of the best boxers you've ever seen' then you have incredibly low standards and obviously don't know nothing about the sport. His extremely one sided whooping by Marco Antonio Barrera the second he stepped up shows you exactly what his level was. He got battered from pillar to post the whole night, and then retired at an early age because he could not compete with the elite. He's nowhere near any list of the greatest boxers ever LOL it's very laughable to even suggest he was one of the greatest, maybe you got confused with most exciting or most flashy or something like that lol.
The fact that he's the only decent Arab fighter ever shows you just how pathetic they are at boxing, you can probably count on one hand and have space for the amount of world champions there's been, ever! that were Arab lol
Amir Khan is a laughing stock bum, The fact that he is the ONLY South Asian boxer to ever win a world title EVER tells you everything! He's a glass jawed, multi flowed butt of all jokes loser who will get KTFO once again on Saturday. South Asians are the worst boxers I have ever seen in my life - they all have glass jaws, feather fists and can't get to any decent level. Like the Quote from Angel Garcia '' All my life I aint never seen a pakistani that could fight'' ' the truth hurts and people don't like the truth'
You really don't have a clue what you are talking about. Boxing is a sport with 17 weight division and 4/5 world champions per weight. There can be 70 different world champions at any one time. The Olympics are every 4 years and the World Championships are every 2 years. Yet if you look at the results you can see race definitely plays a part, because these races just are so pathetic at boxing.
Boxing is not the most popular sport anywhere!!!! It's about if you can fight! There's South Asians, Arabs, Turks, North Africans living all over the world!! Yet they can't get to any decent level anywhere.
South Asian males in boxing stats
Pro World Champions , ever - Only ONE!
Olympic Gold Medalists, in boxing ever - ZERO!
World Championship Gold medalists ,ever - ZERO
I could go further with that because there's loads of South Asians fighting in the UK, that are on small hall shows/leisure centres and they can't even get to domestic level, they can't even get to British title level, it's very embarassing for them.
Ukraine is a very poor country, with a war going on, and fastly decreasing population fo just over 40 million, and hardly any money to support their Amateur Team. Yet What excuses do they Make? Zero! they make no excuses and they just constantly produce top boxers and P4P fighters non stop! Lomachenko, Usyk, Gvozdyk, Klitschko's, etc Khyzniak is P4P number 1 in the amateurs. You know why - cause they really can fight! Ukraine didn't even have the money to fund a WSB team in the last WSB series, but India, China, Colombia, Venezuala all had teams in it!
Joe Calzaghe fought out a ******* shed for most of his career!
India has a population of BILLIONS and you think you can make excuses lol! Pakistan, and Bangaldesh, etc huge populations. And Millions of descendants all around the world. India and Pakistan send FULL Teams to the Olympic Qualifiers and World Championships and they almost all go out in the first round. When you draw a South Asian on boxing you think it's your lucky day.
There's LOADS of South Asians fighting in the UK, if I was to post pictures of boxing gyms in the UK that are full of them I'd be here all day! Yet they can't get past domestic level because they are weak, glass jawed, feather fisted bums with very low standards,
I think the 'low standards' thing is one of the main reasons they are so terrible. Vijender Singh is a mediocre boxer, yet he's one of the most famous celebrities in India! He's there hero despite being a bum.
It's the same with almost all sports, South Asians just simply suck at sport. They are very unathletic. They love football ( soccer), they all play and watch football yet they can't get to any decent level. India and Pakistan, etc have never even qualifed for the World cup ever, No South Asian in the UK has ever got to any decent level at that either.
Turkey has a population of 80 million ,yet has never ever had a single world champion ever!!!!! They really can't fight at all
Whites are the clear superior race n boxing. And guess what all the best white fighters come from poverty, it drives them! Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, and the council estates of the UK>
All South Asians a (and Turks, etc) do is make stupid petty excuses for all their failures when there's been hundreds of thousands upon thousands of South Asians that have laced up the gloves al around the world, yet there's a clear trend in them failing to get to any decent level, the same as in almost every sport.
South Asians have ZERO Talent when it comes to boxing, as all the stats back me up.
