i honestly dont think he would have as many fans as he does now.. not to hate on him or anything he's doing his thing but to me he's i guess what you would say the great white hope and if he was black or of latin or asian ethnicity he wouldnt be as popular or admired..
your thoughts?
I don't think he would have as many fans. I like Pavlik and I'm sure he would have a lot of fans regardless of race because of his fighting style and personality, but I think it would be naive to say that him being white doesn't add a slight boost to his popularity.
Hard puncher, big heart, exciting fights, AND... he's not a dick.
This is pretty much it.
If a guy is an exciting fighter, he's an exciting fighter. I don't think because he's white has anything to do with it. Why was Tyson so popular?? Was it because he was black or was it because he was awesome to watch??
It's the way you fight, if your an exciting fighter and give the crowd a war, they'll follow you no matter what race you are. Well that's at least how I about fighters.
I cannot avoid a smile when white people:
Complain about racism;
Say blacks have it easier than whites these days (based on some rapper's bling of course);
Say black fighters have more fans and are loved best overal;
Rap (about not having free parking slots at school avaiable or the girlfriend who left although most black rappers also make me laugh rapping about bling bitches and money);
1. Ever been to a black gym?
2. Ever gone application for application with someone on the receiving end of affirmative action?
3. No idea
4.haha true. Old rap used to be about describing what was, now rap is about being a douchebag, black and white rap.

it's because he's white. sad but true.
I am a fan of Pavlik. And he's not white. Less than 10% of the US population (assuming that all are boxing fans for this exercise) still isn't going to add to Pavlik's status.
Mnuburner22, is that you?

If Pavlik was black, he'd be even more popular - we'd hear LOTS more about him in the sports media. They'd be calling him the middleweight Tyson!
I notice the guy who started this thread has no white fighter on his list of favorites. Considering 16 of the 20 world titles from middleweight to heavyweight are held by white dudes, doesn't it seem unusual that he doesn't have a SINGLE favorite white boxer?
you are such an idiot!!
i guess you have no idea on who MARCEL CERDAN is
jackass
Who really gives a shit?
He's white, there are white people on this planet, we don't see many great white fighters, he's now one of em, white fans now have one of their own to cheer for.
lol This was a pretty stupid thread to make
you are a bum
fuck off loser

With the serious fans that's not as much a factor, but with the fairweather types it's absolutely the case. No doubt at all.
Oh you have one of these:
