Did Vitali Klitschko make a racist statement about Haye?

People do not fall for the bait..

Why do people keep calling Haye and Ward black? How can you be black if you have a white parent?

One drop rule

It's not racist.
And Haye said worst by far to Valuev, K2, Harrisson (gang rape), so...

[GG Magic]

This was in no way racist. Anyone who knows Vitali Klitschko even half-well can tell you he's no racist.

And no, it wasn't a poor choice of words. Its sad to see some posters so defensive at this kind of a statement.

Here's a tip: Try putting things into context.

One drop rule

And who is to decide if this rule is still valid?

Vitali's quote can only be interpreted racist if you still see the skin color. Vitali sees Haye as a man, not as a black man, and therefore hasn't said anything racist.

Well i dont think its an official legal law

Pretty sure it wasn't meant to be racist, but I'm sure Freedom will imagine it was meant to be racist when he masturbates to the Klitschkos tonight.
