And why does everyone have to agree on this next fighter to bandwagon why can't you just follow some guys if you haven't been doing so already. I see you like big guys, try watching some of the smaller guys there's alot of talent and some of the best fights are at 154 and below. And oh yea try not to narrow it down to black fighters. margarito is good, Angulo is good, JMM is good, vasquez, r. marquez, victor ortiz, david diaz is good, paquiao is good, pavlik is ok. If you want to stick to bigger guys then stick with dawson but it's going to be pretty boring as there's rarely big fights at the higher weight classes now a days. **** jump ship to david haye lol
    I'm not a bandwagon jumper. I already liked Dawson, but I didn't know if Roy was going to fight him, so I didn't want to become a big right away. I was only kidding, about us all agreeing. I was just fooling around.

    I just like the style many black fighters have. Its not a race thing, its a style thing. Black fighters(not all, but a good majority tend to be slick boxers), while fighters of other races tend not to fight that way. For example I think Paulie malignaggi is pretty cool and hes white. its a styles thing. I'm white myself, so obviously I'm not against whites.lol I like Manny Pacquiao, hes allot of fun to watch even though hes more of a brawler.

    But its not like I said, hmm I'm going to like B-Hop because hes a black fighter. Theres reason I like B-Hop. Theres reasons why I like all the fighters I listed.

    But anyone will tell you, I'm a real fan of those five fighters I listed. When roy got koed by Glen Johnson, I was a Roy Jones fan still. I've always supported Tyson, Jones, Toney and B-Hop no matter what. Even when Tyson ******, I supported him.

          are you the same way? I just tend to like the style of black fighters better.


          I'd rather watch Pernell Whitaker than Marco Antonio Barrera. Its nothing against Mexicans, Barrera is a great warrior. But I just like the slicksters and they are often the black fighters. (not all the time of course)

            Racist.

            Are you not aware Pavlik was slick back in the day? He was also a bit darker.

            Coincedence? Think not.

                I don't follow every single fighter. I'm a big fan of the sport. But some of you got me beat. I tend to follow the fighters I like. But I try to follow others too.

                Anyone who truly knows me on here, knows that I'm not racist at all and never have been.

                  I was kidding about the racist part man.

                  BUT Team Pavlik says he was a "slick boxer" back in the day.

                    lol. Maybe he was, there is always exceptions. I'm sure in the history of boxing, theres been slick fighters of every race.
