Only people who hates tribalism is people whose race haven't accomplished as much. It's like children. Don't bring up your Harvard kids around my community college children.

6 foot tall black men arent on many NBA lists. What are the rest doing? Not that many playing football either.
Why is it a country like Australia with only 26 million people, a world leader or in the mix in so many sports, AFL, Rugby League, Rugby, Soccer, Swimming, Olympic sports, Cricket, and can still throw up so many good fighters? All our best athletes are doing these other sports. How come such a small country where its best athletes are doing other sports, still produce good fighters?
Now tell me why the US has about 40 million Black people and only 2 dominant sports (NFL NBA) but cant manage to keep the boxing dominance it once had? Obviously it isnt football or Basketball, something else is going on.Comment

Black Brit Craig Richards took 4 rounds off of Bivol boxing with him
Craig's black long reach and black quickness helped him score with 1-2's. Bivol wouldn't move his head out the way. Bivol has black feet but black head rolls are a work in progress for him
Craig winning 4 rounds is impressive because Bivol is levels better than him
An elite Slick Black would be a handful for Top Soviet Bivol
I thought Morrell could be it but he goes Latino and throws boxing out the windowComment

this idea that a weight class is not really very good or up to scratch unless it has these foundational guys in it is not new ive read it plenty of times, andre ward was there and he had controversies with kovalev, u have to have a very specific fighter there to satisfy this condition, actually bud is that guy i presume so he could go there and take on bivol and satisfy that conditionComment

There's literally thousands of high schools in America and probably thousands of colleges filled with 6ft tall basketball players. Just because they dont make it to the NBA isnt my point. My point is they spend their time doing other sports besides boxing thats the point. Its not marketed towards large boys anymore football and basketball are. Once their hoop dreams get cut short at 21. They will just work a 9 to 5 not pick up boxing.
Omg Australia has one all time great fighter and hes Russian lol. No offense your boxers are trash.
Who got more Gold medals America or Australia? Ok then.
out of that 40 million you have women and non athletic people. Not everyone wants to play sports.
I just told you boxing isnt promoted to the black youth anymore. I just explained it to you. Basketball and football takes all the best talented boys once they get to middle school.
I am both black and American why would i come up here and preach bs. Americans stopped caring about boxing after Rid**** Bowe/ Evander Holyfield ( heavyweights).Comment

In high school and college level basketball and football ? Tones. Just because they dont make it professional isnt my point. My point is most will consume their lives with playing basketball or football up until 18-21 years old. Until their dreams get cut short. Do you know how many college football teams their are just in the southern states in America?
Do you know theres high school football teams in Texas that generate millions of dollars each year ? Who's putting millions of dollars into boxing for the youth in America?
Do you know some states get local tax money to support school sports like basketball and football ?
Whos putting millions of dollars in youth boxing ?
Please tell me this.
Let me tell you something. AAU go look it up. Has college scots looking ar freshmen basketball players in high school. They used to do it in football. These scots would come to urban community or poor cities in the south and hand single mothers money so their sons can commit and play football or Basketball a Texas, SMU, Miami Florida State and etc.
Do you also know how much money the NCAA generates ?
Some of these players could maybe get cut at 18 could had been great boxers but by 23 they have to find a real job.
James toney was recruited for football I believe.Last edited by MalevolentBite; 09-15-2025, 07:05 PM.Comment
