If Wladimir was American and black, would he be more accepted as a top heavyweight?

    Would you like Wlad better if he were black?
    Would you like Mayweather or Jones if thery were white? Of course you would. They would be Joe Calazghe to you. BTW,Your avatar is a parody. That's not a real black fighter. And if you have the right to hate Mayweather, Toney, Hopkins and Jones, Paul Williams, then other people have the right to hate fighters you like, including Wlad. I don't hate him, but who cares if others do? You do. Grow some nuts and stop worrying who other people like or prefer as fighters.

      I don't hate Mayweather, Toney, and Hopkins, and I like Jones and Williams.

      Can you imagine how you would feel if there was a daily hate thread here about each of those fighters? Every day, we see a Wladimir hate thread, and usually several Calzaghe hate threads.

      Why not just be honest about it - some people hate successful white boxers.

        So what? So nobody hates Floyd, Antonio Tarver, Margarito, Cotto, Pac, and endless list of non-white fighters ?

        I mean people hate boxers of every race color and creed.

        Get used to it.

        When I like a fighter not many like, or make hate threads on I think it's pretty funny because ultimately I don't give a **** what people think.

        You shouldn't either

          It's easy to ignore a few hate threads, but when you see them EVERY DAY in NSB, always from the same people, it becomes irritating.

          There have been over 1000 Calzaghe hate threads in NSB since his Jones fight, and there's usually one or two every day about Wlad.

            I wouldn't argue about that since there are bigots in all races. But every fighter gets their share of hate. From Mayweather and Paul willaims, to the Klitschko's and Calzaghe. But I don't think it's always racially motivated (sometimes it is)and that's where I think you're wrong.

              I realize it's not always racially motivated.

              For example, Squealpiggy hates Wladimir and loves Hatton - but in his case it's nationalism not racism, since he's from Manchester like Hatton, and he grew up during the cold war.

              And there are Americans who love Pavlik and dislike European and UK fighters.

              However, there are some people like DiegoFuego, Dynamite Kid and bsrizpac who hate all white boxers. The worst of them all is Daggum - in nearly 100% of his posts, he's ridiculing and bashing white boxers.

                Insecure ******s like Chunk and Dynamite Kid hate Wlad because he
                is a good looking, white man who is also a nice guy. Do you think they
                would hate him if he was a short, unattractive squashed faced chump?
                Hell no. Chunk is the double of Steve Bunce, the ming bucket who talks
                a lot of cack on Setanta, so yeah it's obvious why these, manky dudes
                hate the Klits. Hot men who smack the **** out of losers.
