Is implying that Joe Calzaghe is the only white fighter that matters... racist?


Serious question.

Serious question.

Yes, it implies an unfairly negative attitude toward white fighters.

White guys hold 13 of the 20 world titles from middleweight up to heavyweight, plus 3 Ring titles. Calzaghe is probably the best, but Pavlik, Bute, Abraham, Sturm, Kessler, Erdei, Adamek, Wladimir, Chagaev, Povetkin, and several others "matter".

Well said bro.

White fighters pretty much dominate the higher weight classes.

You're making a false accusation.

It wasn't a monkey you had in your avatar, at least when I saw it. You had a photo of someone who looked like James Toney there.

Okay, I'm sorry. It was a gorilla.

I forgive you.

Bute listed twice though he only holds one title, Adamek and Povetkin listed even though they're merely a mandatories and several others who probably don't hold titles. That's racist.


On a side note, I wouldn't be surprised if people mis-guessed my race based on who my favorite fighters are. I'm pretty confident that people vote based on nationalistic and/or stylistic preferences, but that's how I got into boxing too. It's only after I'd been watching boxing for about 12-15 years that I started rooting based on talent and ring intelligence.

You know what's the *******?

Being called racist against white folk because I am not a Kelly Pavlik fan.

The best part is that I am whiter (in color obviously) than The Ghost.

Race War FTW!

[Mr. Philadel]

I admit I have more black(African, African-American, and Jamaican,) friends than white or hispanic but the mother of my son is half white(Austrian) so that makes my son 25% white and I love my lil' boy to death! I never had white friends but now I have white in-laws who are some of the coolest ****in people I ever met in my life! So with all my heart, I can say I am a recovering rascist No! seriously, rascism is alive and kicking everywhere! It use to be underground now its goin back mainstream and the current U.S. presidential race is a perfect example of this! Can any major news station mention Barack's name without using the word "black"? It's funny, ever since Bernard made the mistake of trusting his tongue while his heart was bitter, non-blacks has seemed to try to use that situatuion as fuel for a slave boat or something! But I do have to admit that MOST black fight fans are impartial! I didn't want B-Hop to beat Calz because Calz was white, I wanted him to win because he's my favorite fighter! And if Calz and Jones Jr. get it on, I'm puttin points on Calz because Jones Jr.'s defense(Layin on the ropes) is custom made for Calz's attack!

Addison you started something here my dude!

It happens to me all the time. People think I'm black.

I also got called a fake white person or something like that by Smokin' (god I hope he is dead), because I'm not a fan of Kelly Pavlik. THE WHITE GUY WHO ONLY SUPPORTS BLACK FIGHTERS!!!! LOLOL

This is when I had an avatar of the Cuban Joel Casamayor...

God this race **** is tight. No, really, it actually probably makes this forum better. **** talking about boxing, let's all raise our fists in unison with our race and spew racial slurs. Tight **** guys. Seriously... it's the *******.

[javelin_fangs]

That was one of the best lines ever.

Love the sig man. I might need to steal it for another online forum. LOL
