Why dearth of Black heavyweights?

Cause they move like damn robots out there. Like I said, white fighters just look sloppy and uncoordinated in the ring. Not saying the Klitchkos are sloppy because they aren't, they are good boxers but they can't move, these are big, lumbering men in there. Not to mention I have a certain threshold for jabs. I can only take a few hundred or so before I'm ripping my eyes out. As for Mayweather, I don't find him that exciting, I just find his skills pretty impressive. Most of my favorite fighters are the boxer/puncher type. I like a guy that isn't afraid to mix it up and brawl in the inside but he also needs to know how to create space, work the ring, and put a boxing lesson on his opponent.Comment

Are you crazy? Did you not see Vitali dance his way around Arreola with the swiftness of Fred Astaire?Cause they move like damn robots out there.

Not to mention he's almost 40 years old and coming off serious injuries that kept him out for years.
Wlad is also very mobile.
You need to rewatch the tape.Comment

Once a black/american HW is the HW champion, he will fight like 3 fights and then considered an ATG. That's how the standards are.Comment

Canadians would dominate the heavyweight division if all our best athletes weren't playing hockey.Comment

Riiiight, you double standard racist, I bet you think Holmes' jab was ATG. As well as Ali defensive clinches. The mix it up brawl fighter t who can create space hat you are so impressed with, that's the definition of Vitaly, if you ever have seen him fight that is, which you probably haven't.Cause they move like damn robots out there.
