Is it just me or does it seem like Ukraine produces more good boxers these days than Russia? Not to take anything away from Russia. But alot of really good fighters come out of Ukraine.

Not sure how the numbers compare but Russia has more than three times the population of the Ukraine, but there's no question that Ukraine is turning out an amazing number of great boxers now. I wonder what kind of boxing program they have there. It must be very good and widely available
