    ho ***n hum. lame subject.

    obviously america produces great boxers and obviously most of them are black. our style is much different than other cultures.

    sometimes others can figure them out, sometimes they can't.

    ***n next. soooooooooooo ******.

      About this rhythym point, I DO believe that black people have that certain something which is often lacking in others, BUT............ many years ago, I was travelling across Canada by train, (think it took 5 days) and got into various conversations with the sleeper attendants who were all black.

      Now I'd been more or less absolutely convinced that black people were all Jazz musicians, since I was deeply into New Orleanz Jazz, and had played with several black musicians who were terrific, with enormous drive, lift, and bounce.

      So in these conversations with these guys, I was keen to bring the conversation around to Jazz, Black Jazz. Much to my surprise, I found that not only did these guys NOT play any musical instruments, but they knew practically NOTHING about Jazz, not the great Jazz musicians...........

      So......... I consoled myself with the fact that they knew of Sugar Ray Bobinson, and that he was a terrific jazz dancer.

        They might have rhythm but half of todays black american fighters lack power to go with it. I like Hagler, he didn't **** around.

          you racist, idiot....... look at the titles.... mostly held by white europeans currently, alot of German whites.....

          so dont go on and say whites can't fight or blacks are naturally better fighters.. cause your not its the individual that counts...

          when you say whites can't fight, dont leave out the european whites... cause there white to........
          I dont like all these race stuff..

            I don't agree at all.
            Calzaghe has no rhythm and he was beating black dudes asses left & right.

                There is nothing typical about Froch. He and pavlik fight completely differently.

                I do think there are differences between boxers from different backgrounds, but it is a stretch to put it down to genetics. I mean, there is a lot of simplistic evidence for black athletes being naturally better sprinters than white men, but I don't know about 'rhythm' or brains or anything.

                Funnily enough not many black athletes compete in worlds strongest man, but again am reluctant to draw a genetic racial trait from that

                    Glad they didn't either, it makes them more competitive.

                      How old were they when he was beating them?
                      Was any of those blacks a pound for pound fight if he wasnt old?
                      Where was Calzaghe when Roy Jones and James Toney were in their prime?
