To all boxing fans here, stop being racist.

[joepal]

Rooting for a fighter just because "I iz black" or because he's the next white hope or just because he's Latino AT ALL TIMES REGARDLESS OF ANY CIRCUMSTANCE is just plain racist. Try to elevate your standards and be a little more objective because GOD KNOWS BOXING NEEDS ALL THE OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS IT CAN GET.

Por ehemplo, I am Filipino but I rooted for Darchinyan against the Filipino Glen Donaire, and just hated it when the latter quit BECAUSE I WANTED DARCH TO GIVE THAT LITTLE FEGIT A BEATING. When Nonito (another Filipino) KTFOd Darch I almost quit posting for 5 months.

Another example was the Katsidis-Amonsot fight where I rooted not for the brash and ****y Filipino but for the exciting and humble Katsidis. You can just imagine my joy when Amonsot got KTFOd.

Now I like Pac not so much because he is Filipino but because he is THE MOST EXCITING FIGHTER in the world and arguably the WORLD's BEST.

Maybe you guys can shed your racial prejudices aside so that we can analyze boxers (and ultimately boxing) better and make this the universal sport that it should be. After all, boxing ability is not based on one's racial heritage but on one's hard work, guts-to-the-wall training, perseverance, sacrifice, heart and God-given talent, all of which are UNIVERSAL in nature and which can be found in ALL PLACES in the world and not just in one place.

That wasnt meant to be derogatory. I absolutely ADORE a lot of black fighters like Hagler, Holyfield, Whitaker, Glen Johnson, Jermain Taylor, Roy Jones Junior, Ike Quartey, Winky Wright to name a few.

Your credibility is INVALID because you didnt mention Mike Tyson.

Seriously damaged much of your credibility with that "i iz black" statement. Especillay right after you said white hope and latin fighter, both of which don't come close to the asinine statement of "i iz black".
