Mother Russia
"...all four versions of the world heavyweight title are now held by East European-born fighters," writes The Guardian, by which they mean "the Russians now have the heavyweight division locked down". Anybody who tells you he saw this coming five years ago is a liar. Historically speaking, this is weird, and would set the stage for some completely awesome stuff, if 1) the Americans or the English had anything to offer and 2) the press could be bothered.
