anyways usa in olympic games in boxing has win 111 medals and they participate in olympics from 1896 till now
ussr and communist countries participated first time in 1952 and look some informative infos

Take a deep breath now as far as boxing goes the communists haven,t won **** at the pro level until lately and over the last 20 years we Americans have taught the rest of the world how to box except Cuba I remember when we started sending American trainers to these other country's I am not knocking you but you really don,t have that much to be proud of tell me one thing 3 years ago how many champions did you have and before that how long ago did you have a world champion. I am glad your sorry country has some guys that can fight America is the cream and we always rise to the top it,s just a hick up my friend. And if you are proud of the heavy weights you have produced then you don,t know a good fighter from a great fighter your fighters are average at best I would not pay to see any of them fight . If Kelesko is the best out of the bunch you wont be cheering very long as soon as he stops fighting his old sparing partners he will get his *** kicked again you do remember Chris Byrd 165lbs don,t you and you do remember some old south African Corry Sanders nether of these guys are going to the Hall of Fame and neither is Klesko so stop staring into the sun it,s bad for you.

Okay, i am going to admit that i did not read all of that.

Mostly because it looks like a third grader tried to write a master thesis.

I did go to the wikipedia page [nice source, by the way. no room for error!], and from the looks for it, we have more than twice as many medals in boxing than any of those countries.

So, I do not know how communists dominate anything.

A better path for you probably would have been the recent heavyweight fight.



In anycase, Russia, and especially Cuba, do not have many options for athletic young men, i would say that between the two countries, the biggest sports are baseball, ice skating, hockey, and both share boxing.

In nearly every American town, there are dozens of sports to play.

Every highschool has at least 5 different sports or so.



There are many more options.

You've gots lots o time, dontcha bro? Whiling the days away hammering on a computer keyboard (invented by americans) whose signal gets sent by fiber optics (invented by americans) by radio signal (invented by Americans)up to communication sattelites (also invented by Americans) across the internet(invented by americans), as you sit under a lightbulb (invented by Americans) enjoying your good health (innoculations invented by Americans). Why don't you go outside and take you car(invented by Americans) for a spin and listen to the radio (invented by Americans) while driving to an Airport (invented by Americans) to watch the jetliners(invented by Americans) fly by. Or climb out of your mommas basement and microwave (invented by Americans) a HotPocket(invented by americans).



You should be careful about the information you read on Wikipedia, it often has propaganda (invented by Soviets). Just be careful not to get involved in mass genocide/purges (invented by the Russians) while getting hammered on cheap vodka (invented by the Soviets).



Without all these American things, you'd be in some cave somewhere, freezing your butt off in the dark, drinking vodka and planning the mass extinction of any group of people that look a little different than you.

Mr. Gorbachev "Yes sir, President Reagan sir"

OH that's right, we invented the atomic bomb too. Thanks for reminding me. Had we invented it any earlier, we probably could have prevented Germany's invasion of your communist country. People seem to forget that America saved Russia's butt as well as western Europe from the Krauts.



Let's face it, you have the life you have, the comforts and freedoms because of American ingenuity and the American Soldier. You really should pay my country a tribute.

You can thank my family that fought for your freedom at any time. Seriously, you'd be licking Nazi boot and your flag with have that little swashtika symbol on it had there not have been GI Joe.



Im waiting for a thank you. And while you're at it, please send me half of your cash as a means to pay back America for all the things you owe her.

You might need to start asking questions at the grammar section.
