    guys like Tyson, Holyfield, Frazier, and Qawi were all warriors
    Tyson was actually more of a boxer in his prime, people totally forget that. He used Combos to KO his opponents. Holyfield and Frazier yes but still great boxers

      I take it as, "Not giving a ****" what happens in the ring, as long as you fight.

      But that got me thinking, Me being an African American, What do I expect from my own fighters, and what is the Common perception of what African Americans expect from our fighters.....???
      And I came to this list of some characteristics that most African Americans
      usually want from their fighters.

      1. Winner
      2. Swagger
      3. Either a Slick fighter or a Knockout Artist.


      So my questions is, what is the Common perception of what African Americans expect from their fighters.....???

      But if we look at Knockouts...
      Today,5 years ago, 10 years ago, 20 years ago, 30 years, 40 years ago, ever.

      No race of fighters Has more Knock Outs Among their top 10 fighters
      than Black Fighters...compare to any other race. and i am not including
      the black latin fighters...

      So what that tell you about how Blacks fight.?
      "m

      Why are u changing the topic of the thread?

      You orginal question was ...WHAT is the Common perception of what BLACKS expect from their fighters?

      I've answered that, and most of the black posters in this thread have confirmed what my thoughts are.

          i dont really like these racially related threads but many black american fighters are slick flashy and great trash talkers, i guess the ****y persona appeals to the american public

          not all though, but many are

              (not including the black latins)

              Marco Antonio Barrera.

              Many were close but seeing as Mosley is a vet with more fights had to go with another vet that has more ko's then Mosley. Next.

                  My Point is this:

                  I think you are implying that Blacks Fighters dont look for Ko's because most of Black Fighters are "Boxers" in the sport of "Boxing"

                  But my point is, that although Black fighters box INSTEAD of brawl most of the time....

                  That still doesnt change the fact as a group and race of people, Black fighters still produce the most Knockouts.

                    Instead of wanting to see thier fighters inflict damage, they prefer to see thier fighter/s avoid damage, while in return, potshotting and moving to a technical 12round decision victory

                    Now this does not apply to all black boxing fans, but it does apply to most black fans on this forum.

                      If toe to toe fights are made up of unskilled brawlers to would be better suited for ufc/mma (as viewed by many black boxing fans), why is it that, that type of fight is the one that is always considered "Fight Of the Year"?????????????????????
