Thank you for shining light on boxers from outside of the American sphere. I don't think people realize how hard it is for some of these guys, especially in the lower weight classes, to gain real fame and fortune
And than when they do and take a big fight in america down the line after spending they’re whole entire lives fighting and giving everything for that opportunity and than they get robbed in America and than 6 months later nobody acknowledges the guy got robbed and he’s an afterthought in boxing and loses everything he worked for.
@@mr.fukk12 Facts. A great example is Rolly vs Ismael Barroso. Rolly is a guy who only is relevant because he's got a big mouth + his alignment with Mayweather promotions. He got an extremely privileged title shot at 140 against a Venezuelan who worked his way up the rankings the hard way. Dude gets a complete gift stoppage, and just like that Barroso gets robbed from his world title and all the opportunities that comes with it.
This is the only man on UA-cam who even covers Asian fighters and actually understands the environment in the sport there. I've learned so much from this guy
No annoying voice over, no ridiculous graphics or sensationalist video. Instead clear,concise, informative commentary on the subject. You are the best boxing channel on YT sir. Thanks for another great episode. I'm from the UK and we have dozens of great boxers, but the best I have seen is Joe Calzaghe.
Very true. I've been seeing this surge of oddly indistiguishable boxing "content" that revolves around wannabe movie narrators spewing vapid hyperbole about extremely mainstream boxers. Hancho is just Hancho, he's his own thing.
Ty for always choosing to put out QUALITY over quantity, I'd rather have a video once every three months like this than that shit ppl pump out as much as the leave a piss per day ty again
I’m from omaha,Nebraska home of the one and only Bud Crawford. Guy is a hero here and the by far the best attraction in the state since Nebraska college football sucks now. Also has spent a good amount of his time and wealth fixing up the impoverished parts of the city true inspiration
hozumi hasegawa is great despite barley winning fights by ko, he proved to everyone as being 3 time weight class champion and the best at his time, he's amazing
these accomplishments, that these fighters did, are amazing to talk about or look at, even if they were over there head being champions early, it's still amazing to look at, in male and female boxers.
You should consider checking out Yoshiki Takei. He was one of the most dominant champs in K1 Japan during the 2010s. He’s transitioned to boxing and is undefeated.
Many years ago, I went to Tuesday Night at the Fights in Pontiac Michigan. You remember, with Sean O'Grady. Setting at a table right next to us was Leon Spinks. The guy was friendly as heck, and had the most beautiful penmanship I have ever seen.
@@SoNewEnglandsuxYou're not mixed up. Leon Spinks son Cory Spinks was a world champion at Welterweight. Had a couple of big fights with Zab Judah. Might have got a junior middleweight title also
As someone from St. Louis, I am one of the few who is really proud to rep sonny Liston. It’s a shame how he was treated after winning the title. No one was there to greet him when he got off the plain. Then again, being a monster didn’t help lol. Although my Puerto Rican heritage makes me say Jose Torres, taught by none other then Cus D’Amato. The same man that molded mike Tyson
Liston coming home after winning and seeing no one waiting for him broke my heart. Man had a good soul underneath it all and he deserved better from life.
Eder Jofre 🥊 I hope I’m pronouncing that right.. I train with MMA legend Dan Henderson boxing trainer, his name is Gustavo, from Brazil.. I’ll mention Eder Jofre to him, I’m sure his eyes will light up.. ha thanks for sharing
Now, that is a headline! OHB, you have the best intro of all the boxing related channels. Every video is better than the last. Been watching for 10 years now and your love if the sport and coverage of every division is uncontended. I think you are the only active boxing channel I follow other than Rummy, and thats ou of like 10. Continue kicking ass and thank for the years of content. I'm Canadian, so all our good fighters fight else where. Saying that, For Canada, Tie for #1 boxer: Lennox Lewis, Razor Ruddock and George Chavalo MMA: GSP, Rory MacDonald and from my hometown of Barrie, Ontario. Canada, Gary Goodridge. Still the best KO in UFC in my opinion.
I remember Gary big daddy goodridge wen he first ever walked out in a black gi n ko that guy with elbows he had in a crusifix back in the 90s wen I was a teenager then his pride fc days dam he was a bad ass fighter but u gotta give it in mma to GSP the Quebec city guy I been to Quebec city n Montreal saint Kathrine street de Rua good times even seen a pregnant girl still stripping lol
@MixUp 90 It is fucked up. He opened his own gym in Barrie around 2010 (I think), and it did not last long. It is a shame he was fighting before there was any money in MMA. Any of his recent interviews are kind of sad.
rey mercer only won a minor heavyweight belt, not a major belt, the WBO was not a major belt until 2007, what are you talking about, he even vacated the WBO belt after beating morrison that's the same thing to michael moorer
@@foxwolf316 it's is a nice looking belt though love that cranberry wbo then green wbc the red ibf Don't like the black n gold wba but I might be mixing them up wbc used to be my favorite n ibf used to be my favorite
Best skateboarder u have is BA Brian Anderson n Donny barely just saying ik it's not about fighting but u got the x UFC HW champ at the oldest age in the UFC glover texerira n now Alex perreira is living there now n ron kowawalski lol jk I remember training there when the gravies went there in Waterbury CT
I got Josh Taylor on Saturday cause I think he really did learn his lesson last fight and he will be focused all 12 rounds and won’t be worried about teo power at all so it’ll end up being a somewhat easy fight for him since teo only won his fights due to his size advantage in the past
The absolute worst mistake he could make is not wory about Teos power. Catterall was peppering and rocking him from the Philly shell. He needs to box a cautious and smart fight with footwork and a better jab. Not just falling in and trying to rough house like he did against jack. Josh needs to focus on defense more.
Only reason I cheer against teo is because his father is so embarrassing.. I know it’s ridiculous but I can’t stand that guy.. seems teo has started to distance himself though
N it's at 140 I'm taking Taylor, teo also seems mentally terrible cuz his wife is taking his half his money n his kid that's y Don't get married young kids
To answer your question: I'm Canadian so obviously the best fighter we got is GSP. I'm also of Ghanaian descent and I would say either Azumah Nelson or Ike Quartey (he got Shafted against Del LA Hoya lol) if were talking best Ghanaian fighters. Also shout out to Nana Konadu who you mentioned. He is a legend too.
@FMG Mack my fault he said best fighter and GSP has a best resume in Canada so I went with him. Honestly thinking about it, while we fuck with Lennox in Canada cause he won us a medal, he clearly made it known he'd rather be British, faked a British accent for a while too lol
@Kyle Lamar Myers of course, I trained with a couple house of champion guys before a couple times so I'm interested to see how all the Hamilton fighters do.
I'm from Brazil and the best fighter we had here is the great Anderson Silva, but in the boxing game is obviously Eder Jofre. Nowadays we have a great contender Esquiva Falcao who will soon fight for the IBF middleweight championship.
Thank God for the IBF they only org that gives the best chance for a fighter who deserves the title shot gets it n u gotta defend it no matter wat or u get stripped best org in boxing ibf
From upstate NY. Mike Tyson, Riddick Bowe, Michael Moore, Jake LaMotta, Mark Breland. To name just a very few. Love all your videos man. Keep up the great work.
1. I thank you, again, for including fighters in the lower weight divisions, fighters that Western boxing ignores. 2. I'm not sure why you included Ray Mercer. 3.

bro i love your knowledge of boxing it helps me expand of what I know so far. I like how youre also in touch with the international side as well its amazing. Thank you Hancho!
For the mid roll question; I was born in Mexico, but have lived all my life in the United States. For Mexico there are so many amazing champions Canelo, Chavez, Sanchez, etc. Though in my opinion Chavez is still the best fighter from Mexico. As for the U.S. I reside in Ga and I have always been a big fan of Mr. Evander Holyfield, watching the numerous documentaries about his career in boxing it has been interesting.
That's a difficult question, the Netherlands have produced so many great fighters. I'd say Ernesto Hoost is my favorite from the retired ones, and Nieky Holzken is my favorite one still active.
You have some of the best boxing videos on UA-cam. I've been a fan for probably 2 years I'd guess. Always know when I click your video it's going to be top notch editing, narration and knowledge. You really know your shit. Thanks for the great content!
Hancho, is Jason Ozuma based off Rick Yoshimura? That would make perfect sense! Btw, I've been a hardcore fan of your channel for a long time now, hats off to you, sir. Now, to answer your question, I'm colombian, and I'd say we have a triple tie between Rodrigo "Rocky" Valdéz (two times middleweight champion), Miguel "Happy" Lora (WBC's bantamweight champion for 3 years, defending the title seven time) and Antonio "Kid Pambelé" Cervantes (two times junior welterweight champion).
Ozuma is more based on Yuji Gomez, coincidentally Yuji and Rick both came from NYC. I did a 40min video of Hajime No Ippo / Ashita No Joe moments. That's all in there.
I hope this is fulfilling for you! You do such an amazing job with these videos and you are keeping boxing history relevant.. man you are awesome! Love your work dude!
I am from Pennsylvania, the first fighter that comes to mind is Bernard Hopkins. Another one is joe Frazier even though he wasn't born in Pennsylvania he start his career here. Honorable mention to Matthew Franklin and for mma eddie Alvarez.
Greetings from the land of the IBF (also known as New Jersey). Currently the best fighter from NJ is🙌down Shakur Stevenson, but speaking all time it’s probably Jersey Joe Walcott. Thank you for the top notch boxing videos, keep up the great work! Also, Taylor takes it on Saturday. **welp, so much for Taylor taking it. Congrats to Teo, hope he finds a sports psychologist & picks up reading some of the works of Adolf Reed to educate himself after this fight.

4:04 ngl The first thing I said when I saw that man was, “He got hair like my daddy!” And it’s also wild that that great boxer was the visual template for Mr. Satan. I completely thought he (the cartoon character, not the champion), was made up or a caricature of American ✌️ movie martial arts ✌️ actors. Dope segment.
Hmm... To answer your question(New Zealand), our top MMA fighter would have to be Izzy, and I'd say Joseph Parker for boxing. New Zealand has plenty of talent in both disciplines though.
I’m from Canada and Winnipeg so the best fighter to ever be born in Canada is of course the great MMA fighter Georges Saint-Pierre. The best fighter to ever call Winnipeg home was former WBC light-heavyweight champion Donny Lalonde. The best kick-boxer I’d say would be Joesph Valtilini and as for Muay Thai fighter I wouldn’t have a clue because of the lack of media coverage available.
I'm from Delaware and It is easily Dave Tiberi. He was robbed when fighting against James Toney during his IBF Middleweight reign. The closet fighter from the Diamond State to win a title. God willing, I can be the first.
14:51 Boxing: past favorite/best: Sugar Ray Robinson/Muhammad Ali. Current favorite/best: Terence Crawford/Clarissa Shield MMA: Jon Jones/Demetrius Johnson 14:56 Smokin' Joe Fraizer. Beaufort, South Carolina
Plattsburgh NY, I'm about 20 mins from Canadian border and the obvious answer would be Tyson but I'm gonna go with Glenn's Falls own Hacksaw Jim Duggan! Hooooooooo!!!!!!
Holly Holm the GOAT from New Mexico, still only person to hold boxing and mma major world titles. Also Jon Jones trains here but idk if that counts since he's not from here.
For real holly holm only legit champ boxer to be legit mma champ I cannot say that about anyone else ,noone comes close to her accomplishments but one thing bothers me did she really make more money fighting in the UFC than sticking to boxing or did she just want a new challenge

I’m from Canada and Winnipeg so the best fighter to ever be born in Canada is of course the great MMA fighter Georges Saint-Pierre. The best fighter to ever call Winnipeg home was former WBC light-heavyweight champion Donny Lalonde.
The best kick-boxer I’d say would be Joesph Valtilini and as for Muay Thai fighter I wouldn’t have a clue because of the lack of media coverage available.
Yukon, Oklahoma’s very own: Sean O’Grady
I'm from Delaware and It is easily Dave Tiberi. He was robbed when fighting against James Toney during his IBF Middleweight reign. The closet fighter from the Diamond State to win a title. God willing, I can be the first.
Philippines here. Best fighters probably Pacquiao, Donayre and other champs from OneFC like Eduard Folayang, and Kevin Belingon.
I’m from Alaska, I think the greatest Alaskan born MMA fighter would be Carlton Minus (active) and Nic Herron Webb (retired)
Asian boxing history is fantastic.
I’m Danish.
The best boxer from Denmark was Mikkel Kessler.
Absolutely love that guy, go give him some love please :)
The Viking Warrior!
Kessler wat a beast in the super six tournament I remember watching him live from the states super series tourney is the tops
Race plays a big part in boxing people don't want to believe that

The difference being, of course, that Jake Paul doesn't actually fight boxers lol.
Regis Prograis is from my State. He’s definitely the best from my state⚜️💪🏿

George Foreman was born in Marshall, Tx about a 20 minute drive from where I’m living now
4:08 I’m glad that was said because I was def thinking it , he has my dad bush and it’s nicely sits as if it’s too fake lol
Plattsburgh NY, I'm about 20 mins from Canadian border and the obvious answer would be Tyson but I'm gonna go with Glenn's Falls own Hacksaw Jim Duggan! Hooooooooo!!!!!!
Puerto Rico. Wilfred Benitez.
Puerto Rico (Trinidad)(Benitez)
Massachusetts (Marciano) (Hagler)
4 all time greats and all great in different ways. No one could slip a punch like Benitez
Holly Holm the GOAT from New Mexico, still only person to hold boxing and mma major world titles. Also Jon Jones trains here but idk if that counts since he's not from here.
For real holly holm only legit champ boxer to be legit mma champ I cannot say that about anyone else ,noone comes close to her accomplishments but one thing bothers me did she really make more money fighting in the UFC than sticking to boxing or did she just want a new challenge
