Answer 12

Not necessarily the country but try the hood, projects, or the ghettos. When you had to fight for your whole life trust me it's a lot of anger built up and not to mention you've fought since you were a small child. Basically countries where people have to struggle.

Answer 13

That would depend on era.

In the ancient world obviously it was the Greeks; an athenian, forget his name, no doubt inspired that "Dares/Antallus" myth, assuming the wiki source was accurate which I doubt.  I personally think the real story is better than the myth, although I don't think the Athenian's name was "Dares."

From the late 19th century to about when, oh, Ali Knocked out Foreman, it was the U.S.  America was pretty dominant for a whopping whole hundred years pretty much.  In the 1980's I would say Mexico, but lately the skill of their fighters has deteriorated as economic improvements have taken hold in the country.  Its a common pattern the world over; poverty produces great fighters and because the U.S. was working class from the late 19th century up until the 1940's, and because the educated class of the 50's, 60's and 70's used to be working class, as the country got richer and richer, boxing deteriorated more and more with smaller and smaller pools of men needing it to escape poverty.

From the 1990's until now, that country would be Russia, because even though there IS business opportunity there, and rapid economic growth, it is still largely a poor country, so currently, the Russians are the best.

Oh, sorry, my bad, forgot to add something; countries with histories of poverty and CRIME, produce good boxers.  Sorry for neglecting the fact; that has been the pattern through history in the past 500 years.

Look at MMA; many good fighters tend to be from Brazil for precisely that reason.  Where was Mike Tyson born?  Bronx, NYC, back when said neighborhood was a crime infested h**l.

New York in the 1970's and 80's I hear, was not a nice place to live.  From the ridiculous price tag of just living there I hear its STILL not a nice place to live, and I hear the subways smell like p**s.

Case in point; poverty + crime = good boxing.  With the exception of the ancient world, because war and invasion was more of a problem for them, than crime.  In the ancient world, there was no crime, but war was the problem.  In the modern world there ........

wait never mind, the ancients had it better.

Over the past 100 years or so...

1)  The United States

2)  Mexico, but only for the 1980's

3)  From the 1990's til now, Russia, easily Russia, although the b******s fight like robots.... and without human aliveness, and some sloppiness still shows through.
