Why aren't there chinese/japanese/asian boxers?
 

it'd be an interesting spectacle.

They like to use their feet.

Regular boxing is boring. We like to fly in the air and use swords.

What the hell are you talking about?

Boxing is a very popular sport in Thailand. In fact, they have boxing celebrities out there. Because they have their own leagues and are unknown in America doesn't mean that they don't exist.

well then they're a bunch of bitches if they keep to themselves.

I can't believe boxing is still legal in the US

There are many good Asian boxers, however most of them are in the lower weight classes, so you don't hear as much about them.

Japan, Thailand and the Philippines consistently have boxers as champions or ranked in the top 10 in the lower weight classes.

The major boxing organizations are located in the U.S. and Europe, which also puts Asian boxers at a disadvantage inasmuch as pro boxing is not generally regarded as the cleanest and fairest sport there is.

You could turn that around and ask why Asians dominate most martial arts sports that originated in Asia, or whose sports councils are headquarted in Asian countries.

There are loads of asian boxers in the lighter weight classes.....

Boxing is fun there is no reason to make it illegal

What are you smoking?

Boxing is a way of life in Thailand. Little kids grow up and all they do is train in muay thai as soon as they're able to walk.

There are many different styles of boxing. Their styles aren't popular here.

You're ignorant as fuck.

Would it have something to do with their physical makeup and stength?

They made it illegal after Bruce's 3" power punch.

The Philippines has good boxers.

I am guessing you didn't see Morales vs Pacquiao

makes regular boxing look like figure skating

When I was 14-15 years old, me and a group of friends would go out in my backyard, put on winter gloves, and have boxing matches. Boxing is fun as shit as long as you're winning the fight :1orglaugh

yep they make a living out of boxing, there are tons of fighters from that area

Try watching the Olympics some time. Plenty of Asian boxers there.

Kumite!

Pacquiao is a monster! I don't recall the name of the opponent, but I watched him flat-out dismantle a guy 8ish months ago.
