Some people take race/nationality here WAY too seriously...

this article may help you understand why nationalism is important and not forgetting where you come from. VIC has touched alot of hearts in Armenia and is a true HERO to us. http://blog.thesweetscience.com/2006/07/04/roots-and-vic-darchinyan Remembering where you come from is important. Nationalism is not the same thing and is also not important. I'm sure anyone could find a few instances where nationalism was beneficial in some way, but the negatives far outweigh the positives.

you know that is way in America they dont want illegal mexicain immgrantes because most of them could cause trouble by making some revelotion or something as well as it effect the amercain culture.

I'm not talking about talkihg shit about someones race. I'm talking about threads like "What nationality is Oscar" or "What nationality is Lennox Lewis" Then I end up seeing 100s of replies to them. What race is Lennox Lewis, j/k. I respond cause i dont aggree with some post and somtimes i over react and start typing too much. Its an interesting discussion, just to hear other peoples point of view or stories or theories.

Im acutally typing. When you get older i think you wont be as offened about race talks as you are now. Its helps to be informed about your people, whatever mix or race or nationality you may be.

You're from Cali, as i'am. So you've heard the rapppers Frost -a.k.a Kid Frost-, Proper Dos, Lighter Shade of Brown, and i could name a few other, but these rappers yelled, Mexican Power, Brown Pride and La Raza -a.k.a Mexicans. Well, i consider these songs classic, they were a hit and played on the radio if you remember. Well, from time to time, i'll bump Mexican Power by Proper Dos, and im sure you remember this song. One day i was bumping this song, loud of course, i go to the gas station and im pulling up to the pump and some white lady i see staring at me with an amazment of what he is hearing, of what i'am listening too and loudly at that. I swear i almost LOL, because her face expression said it all. I was thinking what i ain't supposed to bump this shit anymore fuck off, shit was funny though, its one of those thing were you had to be their. I think she might be out of state or somthing cause their is a great Mexican/Chicano population in the city and i remember being younger and everybody was bumping these youngs and as i said they were on the radio. But yeah, if somone does say white pride, i think they'd get their ass kicked quick, the kkk, fucked up any form of having white pride in public - ask me if i care. Why don't you just.....stop talking...?

I know. But you understand what im saying. John Duddy isnt going to come out and say I AM FIGHTING FOR THE WHITE PRIDE OF IRELAND. You're from Cali, as i'am.

Yah, I totally agree. Fighting for white pride would be career suicide. this article may help you understand why nationalism is important and not forgetting where you come from.

Racism and nationalism are not the same thing, but they are very closely related. I know. But you understand what im saying. John Duddy isnt going to come out and say I AM FIGHTING FOR THE WHITE PRIDE OF IRELAND.

So boxing, in itself, is actually not interesting to you? It's really just a pissing contest between the nations of the world? Do you even like the sport? If a fighter from your country wins a world title, what does that really reflect on your country? Racism and nationalism are not the same thing, but they are very closely related. I love boxing, and I love my nation even more, and when the two combine and we are victorious, nothing could be better. Of course our World Champs mean ALOT to Armenia, a country with roughly 3 million people, we are very proud to have 2 World Champions in boxing and they are ambassadors to Armenia wherever they fight Worldwide. Once they won, both Vic Darchinyan, and Arthur Abraham flew to Armenia to see their family, and both have been welcomed by the President of Armenia and all high officials at the airport. I think our Champs do mean alot to our country because we are so small and not nearly as successful in sports on the world stage as many other countries.

nationalism yes, race no. because if any fighter came out and said IM FIGHTING FOR THE WHITE RACE, they would be crucified. oh of course, thats what i meant.

I think nationalism makes boxing all that much better. Think about it, its one of the few sports aside from say World Cup soccer and Olympics that you can really represent your nation. And its fighting, a battle, and the winner raises their flag up high while the loser goes home to try another day. If there was no race and nationalism involved in boxing, it would be somewhat dull and boring i believe. So boxing, in itself, is actually not interesting to you?
