I personally enjoy learning about the age of imperial empires ruled by European Monarchy's. The athletic itself is incredible, I love the idea of having people to look up to. 6'4 Chad's who are very intelligent and physically fit. That take defending their people seriously and see the success and well-being of their people as glory unto themselves. A shame this isn't always the case. But awesome when it is.
So better in what way? If there two different fighters that both had long careers. And you say, this one was a better puncher, blocker, kicker and so on it isn't really an answer. Just bias.
Off the coast of Gravelines, France,Spain's so-called “Invincible Armada” is defeated by an English naval force under the command of Lord Charles Howard and Sir Francis Drake.

The Contra Armada sailed from Plymouth on April 28, 1589. It had three main objectives: to destroy the Spanish fleet that had survived the attempted invasion of the previous year, to conquer Lisbon, and to enthrone Antonio, prior of Crato, on the Portuguese throne that he occupied. Philip II, and then take the Azores in order to capture the Indies fleet and cause the collapse of the Spanish Empire. None of them were reached. The Elizabethans were defeated against all odds in A Coruña, the Tercios crushed them in Lisbon

British people are the most inferior among all Europeans, of course they lost against majestic Spanish.

Philip II of Spain, called the Prudent (Valladolid, May 21, 1527-San Lorenzo de El Escorial, September 13, 1598), was King of Spain from January 15, 1556 until his death; of Naples and Sicily from 1554; and from Portugal and the Algarves —as Felipe I— from 1580, achieving a dynastic union that lasted sixty years. HE WAS ALSO KING OF ENGLAND and Ireland iure uxoris, by his marriage to Mary I, between 1554 and 1558.
