The Next White Hope?

I think the white/black hope thing is pretty gay. David Tua is white, why was he never considered a white hope? It's because he is not EUROPEAN white, he is Samoan white. The Russian fighters like Valuev are not white hopes either, because they are Russian, not European. So stupid. Kevin McBride is a joke, noone knows who he is because he is a bum, and will probably beat Ruiz if he doesn't die from a heart attack, but he is considered a white hope? What is that to brag about? Black guys says we got Ali, and the White guy says back we got MCBRIDE!!! :D XD

White Hope??? I sure don't understand this. This isn't the godamn 20s anymore. We should be past this. Nationalism is great. But being concerned with a fighter's skin pigment? A very unevovled way of thinking. AMEN ................................

White is white. Black is black. So sad to see. Only an American would say that... WTF Is it with you guys? So you see a Russian and a Brit guy and you classify them as the same thing? WTF Is wrong with you. Different cultures different everything. So they share the same skin colour, so fucking what. A Nigerian and an Ethiopean. Go call an Ethiopean a Nigerian and see what happens...Just cause they share the same skin colour doesnt make them the same people. Stop being so damn racist. The rest of the world is not like the US ok? THere maybe you have a sharp black and white line, the rest of the world doesnt. The difference between me and you is that I see people for their culture, not their skin colour. I am Ukrainian, my skin is white, I dont feel like I have any sord of relation to an American, or an Australian, just because we have the same skin colour. I realy couldnt give a shit. So stop classifing the whole caucasian race as some sord of one people. A Brit is a Brit, an Italian in an Italian a Russain is a Russian. A Nigerian is a NIgerian, an Ethiopean is an Ethiopean. A Filipino is a Filipino. Stop seeing the world as black and white, its much more richer then that, your just too blind to see. Go Visit Africa, Asia, Europe and then tell me if the world is black and white.

Aint that the truth. Any hope that shows promise besides Wlad and Guinn is good. White guy, black guy, whatever. Im just looking for some HOPE in the heavyweight division. And the search continues........ Rockin' :boxing:

When they say you cant consider them cause they're slavs not American, that means that they dont want them considered in this category. White is white. Black is black. So we are not talking "White Hope" are we? Slav's are as white as can be. More than some southern Italians! What about German, Scottish descent? We are talking "Born and Raised in American White Hope"!!!! In this case, their ancestor's ethnic backgrounds do not matter! Their Americans!

Please put Wlad in cause hes all HBO hype and Vitali is too in a way. Remember Vitali tried doing that PPV and it BOMBED? Please leave em out. They arent American, and 15 years ago every single American would hate these guys with a passion.

...Good post and your right. To really be considered a great white hope you are talking about an Italian, Irish, or true American anglo type and American bread fighter. The Klits are left out of the equation unfortunately because of their location and heritage. So we are not talking "White Hope" are we? Slav's are as white as can be.

DAMN, Rodegers=Bust got ta sickest SIG right bout now!!!!!!

all i gotta say is duddy

But throw in Wlad there too. Vitali is good. So it aint all hope with him. Please leave em out. They arent American, and 15 years ago every single American would hate these guys with a passion.

yo I dint realize Litzau has a brotha too jest yestaday. He got like 1 loss though and has less ring experience than Jason.

I've seen Duddy once. I wasnt too impressed in that fight. But I saw highlights of another fight and he looked promising.

I think Litzau might do it along wit Duddy.

Never heard of PR and Mexican fighters in boxing? :rolleyes: LIke I said, Nationalism is one thing. Being concerned with skin color is stupid.

Wow, if McBride is going to be a white hope our race is going to be a fucking joke in boxing. hahahahahaha

Wow, if McBride is going to be a white hope our race is going to be a fucking joke in boxing. :D :D LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!

A white hope has to be an American heavyweight of Irish or Italian decent. There have been plenty of champions that where white Americans in the last hundred years, but I don't know if there has been any white american heavyweight champions in the last fifty years. I think the white supremisist fans are looking for a Matalone to get excited about. Can't they just fall in love with Vitaly's awkward defensive style? Joe Mesi was a white hope. He made about ten times as much as he should have in his career because of that. If he was black he would be on the same level as Darvell Williamson. ...Good post and your right.

Say what???????????????????? Yeah I dont know of too many. I hope Duddy turns out to be the real deal though. The guy has weapons....but needs to be tested.

I agree with Mesi. But throw in Wlad there too. Guy hasnt looked good in 4 years. Its mind boggling why hes still on TV. Vitali is good. So it aint all hope with him.
