As of now ********** dominate boxing. Saying that whites are "poor" at it would be one way of describing the small percentage of white boxer along with the small number of elite white boxers as of now.Its a bad choice of words but it does accurately describe thier state in boxing. Just like minorites have a poor showing in sports like swimming and golf.Comment

It's really what you grow up around isn't it? Poor inner-city kids grow up around basketball, but if you go down to the Dominican Republic poor kids all play baseball. Different locations, different cultures.As of now ********** dominate boxing.

Yeah that true especially in some of the poorer countries. They dont have the facilities to participate in some of the sports like football and basketball golf etc. But when I grew up I my parents had me in sports year round. I was on swim team for 6 years and never good at it lol. Its realy interesting though that some of the countries in europe have great athlethes but they dont have football baseball in thier culture. Ive met some guys at school that would have been great athose sports but they hardly know anything about them.Comment

eastern europeans control the weakest divisions in boxing while ********** control the most exciting divisions.

Jason Litzau is a beast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
By far one of my favorite fighters. Its a damn shame he isnt shown much on tv anymore following his entertaining setbacks. He is far from poor at the sport.Comment

Gladiators were Romans.
Greeks had the olympics and the participants were not ****** but instead athletes.
Not all Gladiators were ****** either, many were poor people struggling to move up in the world with the fame and fortune.Comment
