why are white americans so poor at boxing...???

I know this is a troll thread, but it does get brought up from time to time.

The simple answer is the most gifted white athletes are going to play football, baseball, tennis, etc. Bc that's what's more readily available to them.

Most boxing gyms in the states are in the inner city, historically, and in more ethnic/urban areas. That's the simple reason.

Bingo.. I've lived in Orange Park, FL (right outside of jacksonville) for 3 years...it's pretty much all white and all my white friends like 1) college football 2) Pro football 3) baseball 4) golf 5)mma... none of them follow boxing... the nearest boxing gym is 45 min away

Boxing in the US has always been an outlet for those in poor urban centers which today is predominantly composed of Blacks and Latinos. Back in the day when the Italians, Irish, and ***s were in a similar situation they thrived in boxing as well.

so basically you are saying white people in america are not desperate enough to do boxing???
I agree, but wnated americans view...

My view is on the whole white people in america are wealthy, whearas black people and latinos are unfortunately in the poorer districts. Which could mean there only means of getting out is boxing....


In england there are numerous of poor white estates. My home city of nottingham has terrible white estates so hence more boxing gyms...


Which leads me to te question, why is ufc mainly white americans, surely if they can do that sport, they could hold there own in boxing???

Most of the MMA practitioners around here are suburban kids who wrestled in HS. Its a completely different enviroment in a boxing gym and an MMA gym.

A Troll never posts anything decent and instead goes around trying to start flame wars and wind everyone up!

If british figthers had to come up the hard way they wouldnt have those nice sparkly padded undefeated records. carl froch is gonna find out soon enough.

I dont even wanna bother with tyson "i punch my own face during a boxing match" Fury.

The Brits inferiority complex when it comes to america cannot be denied.

Yeah its a sport that more ********** get into than white people so theres more chance of finding a good minority fighter.

Its like why are New Zealand so good at rugby, even though they have a small population every kiwi plays rugby

Great points to explain the cause beyond some racially prompted stuff.
