    Well I don't think your the person I'm refering to. I'm not the kind of guy who stereotypes everybody. You see the lack of appreciation on this forum and in ticket sales.
    Appreciate that though

          Then you need to put it in a different way, Its the style that some people dont appreciate not the race of the boxer who use that style...Hope that makes sense.

              Nop, I just feel like people get offensive whenever a great black fighter gets props.
              You know people do things like come into appreciation threads and make a negative statement without expressing their true opinion.

              How did you feel when you opened this thread ????

                  No in my opinion Black American boxers get downplayed all the time. I feel as though people catch feelings with blacks in a thread like this but Mexicans, PR's, and Pinoy's can shout all kinds of ignorant **** and get away with it.

                  Again I just asked you to show some unbiased appreciation fo these fighters above

                      If I started a "White American fighters" appreciacion thread it would be cause for ban. This is no different. Try appreciating the sport and not the color of its participants.
