what happened to italian boxers and trainers

seems today that in usa that its only black and hispanics in the world of boxing italians use to be into it heavily but also theirs no real boxing trainers/gyms anymore i googled boxing gyms just in nyc cant find any old school gyms ran by italians old school guys why is this or am i wrong

 

Of course, only top celebreties and No1 No2 ( maybe ) are necessity for sherdoggers.

Not that terrible, for example I had watched 6 rounder not in high level, this bout was done with more than 3 months notice, boxers rank was between 450 - 600 and me liked.
Normally did homework, decent guard maintaining level and cardio. Not at all bad for this guys level and age/ experience.
Yup, Continental europe….

 

You mean americans?

Because they are ok in europe

 

lol its fine say it thats the issue today if someone feels offended people are afraid to say something

it isnt that they dont like the sport cause u still hear them talk about boxing so im guessing that you think it might be that lots of them were losing to other races of people and made them quit that is possible

 

The same reason you don't see tons of jews in boxing now. If economic opportunities are good for you, you're less likely to go into boxing.

Thailand has the most fighters of any country, and it's no secret that regions like Isaan pump out most of the great fighters.

 

its still a thing (for self defense) in italy, but soccer is probably the biggest reason.

 

jews in boxing? tbh most jews arnt known for their athletic ability besides bill goldberg lol idk any other real jews in top level sports?

 

i mean italian americans tbh from ny philly jersey ect rocky like guys

 

There were a huge number of Jewish boxers in the first half of the 20th century, and a lot of great Jewish world champions too, such as two of the best ever in Benny Leonard and Barney Ross, and Max Baer was part Jewish which was a big thing for his fight with Max Schmeling. Even Ring Magazine was founded by a Jewish writer, and Everlast founded by a Jewish family.

 

My great uncle was known as ‘The Jew Killer’ due to all the Jews he fought and beat.... until he ran into Barney Ross.
After the war he retroactively became ‘The babyfaced assassin”. or something harmless like that.

 

lmao at the jew killer XD

 

The discovered Pizza was a far more lucrative business.

Though if you take one look at that Jersey Shore show you'll find your answer most likely.

 

ya, it became kinda taboo.

In the 1920s approx. one third of boxers were jewish

 

So poor, hungry people make the best fighters...not sure anyone (with reasonable intelligence) could have an issue with that line of thinking.

 

This guy would of done awesome in boxing.

 

No.

It is different.
Rough neighbourhood in teenage/ youngster age make people more….let's say, tough and realistic. This more impact character and life experience, regardless are you a businessman or fighter.
Hungry for respect...yes...
Hungry because not enough food on the table….no, of course.
