    What papers? The hell are you talking about?

      I would say whites, because I am white, and I like many fighters of different races and nationalities, white, african american, asian, mexican, european, etc etc.

        Just look at the fans during a white/black matchup and you will see many white people cheering for the black fighter, but you will almost never see a black person in the stands cheering for the white fighter, unless he's part of his entourage.

              Calazaghe definitely rates over PAC in my opinion. Whoever said Pac better come back here when Pac is 36 beating the top young fighters in his division.

                When he puts his papers in fatboy, that is when he is retired. If he retired before and came back, why should we believe him this time?

                  whites are more capable of overlooking race especially in most sports where blacks are the best athletes.

                  golf - tiger woods
                  nba - kobe, lebron, pierce, chris paul, etc...
                  football - most positions except quarterback
                  boxing - floyd, whitaker, srl, srr, ali, etc...

                    huh??? calzaghe beat up a 43 year old hopkins and is going to beat up the shell of the shade of rjj. that's like pac coming back at 36 to fight castillo and casamayor both of whom will probably be in their 40s.

                    he's ducking pavlik, the one last real threat to him (and I believe calzaghe would win that fight).

                      It's rare you see a black person give a fighter that isn't black props.. on the other hand, You see all these white boys like Forever Bled and Ree****yalus with black fighters all over their sigs and avatars.
