    I see nothing wrong with rooting for your own race, as long as you do not show disrespect based on that, toward the other fighter. I go sometimes for the white, and sometimes not. that's personel choice.

      Racism has no place in this sport. It is all about your skill and will to win, not the shade of your skin.

        Yeah. Otherwise let's just call it "black boxing" or "white boxing" or "Asian boxing".

          But then you are walking a tightrope. When you have two choose between two fighters of equal ability you RATE your own-race fighter better, more often than not.

                DID YOU EXPECT ANYTHING DIFFERENT?
