Comments Thread For: Bernard Hopkins: Black Fighters, We Are Built Differently

[slindee3]

what about blacks all over the world? it's all the same. how do you explain that? africans in europe. asia. australia. wherever they roam.... even in africa itself.


results don't matter it's excuses right?

let me end this by a line from the last great afro-american boxer,

men lie. women lie. #'s don't lie.


now sit down.

Typical. When it comes to discussing race, whites want no part of it. I wonder why? Now I'm gonna sit down.

Don't believe for one second that whites are intellectually superior to blacks. The only reason it might appear that way is because we were only offered the opportunity to get an education on par with whites about 45 years ago. If we were afforded the same educational opportunies as whites for the last 400 hundred years we would be on par, if not beyond where whites are.

With that said, within the last eighty years, since blacks were allowed to compete, who has been the athletes to dominate every sport other than hockey, swimming and tennis? What are the names of the athletes who have transended sports and are known worldwide? What white man has ever held the title of world fastest man, greatest basketball player, greatest football player, greatest boxer, etc?

Their is a world outside of the US. The bulk of your people live in Africa. Africans without the help of whites and left to themselves, still live in the stone ages. Its the not the worlds fault you are yet to build a liveable country for yourselves. Only african americans have the success in sports, not black. Due to the reasons stated already in this thread. Even then they are not really in top spots over anybody. Besides maybe basketball.

I had no idea that telling you to read Chiekh Anta Diop and also the great debate at UNESCO in 1973 was asking a redundant question. Or did you just gloss over that part?

first of all you only brought up those two sources directly after you asked 'How do you not see any proof?". In other words, you provided 0 proof and yet still acted as if you provided tons of facts to back up your statement previously.

second of all, you are not providing any sort of debate. Essentially what youre doing is saying 'Educate yourself' and pretending as if you have won the debate with that blanket statement.
Im not doing the same to you, Im paraphrasing and providing concrete facts(such as drawings directly from that time and DNA studies). You could at least do the same, or else you are not making any sort of argument.

provide some factual statements or you are not attempting to prove your point at all.

incidently,

The most recent specific conference on the race of the ancient Egyptians was at UNESCO’s international Cairo Symposium in 1974. The majority view was that the ancient Egyptians were neither black nor white, as per current terminology.

I'm pretending I won a debate? No, there's no "winning" this debate and unlike some of the dumb racist comments I read on here, I didn't view your posts the same way. You seemed to have a genuine interest in the knowledge and genuine ideas so I simply pointed out to you where you could find something to support what I'm saying. If you're not interested in researching that but would rather just "debate" me, cool.

how come the best quarterbacks in football are white?

in the history of the NFL there has only one black qb to win a superbowl

doug williams for the redskins

can anyone answer me that?


and no im not racist

i just want bhop to answer that question.

also there have been black tennis players, none were able to be even great

let alone dominate

the best pitchers and hitters in baseball have been white as well.

[Hotsoup]

Wrestling is not a sport that blacks gravitate to. The sports that we gravitate to are the ones that we dominate.

I'm not denying there aren't a lot of great white players in the sports that you mentioned, but who was known as the greatest in those individual sports?

Well if Hopkins is right and Blacks are so physically gifted than you would think wrestling would not be dominated by whites in the U.S, especially considering how it is a high school sport. With teams sports it's hard to say who is the best of all time cause there are different positions. Babe Ruth has been considered the greatest baseball player of all time. Joe Montana has been called the the greatest quarter back of all time. There is really no one guy that is considered the best in Baseball or Football though.

LOL @ this guy. How do you think Europeans lived until they came to Africa? Ever heard of the Moors? You need to educate yourself, you sound like a class A dumbass.

then how come DUKE won the ncaa championships with a bunch of


WHITE GUYS?????





dont even go to the nba, carrying the ball and hand checking and pushing people

around instead of using agility and fundamentals is not a superior league...

the nba is crap today, these guys except the elite would not have been able

to compete in the 70s 80s and early 90s and dont try to throw **** at me i

was all state and know the game.

im white and not one black opponent could guard me .....none..

by the way i love bhop but this is nonsense.

Hand checking isn't allowed in the NBA. It was not allowed since early 2000s. Before that they were allowed to do that.

And I doubt you went all state and no black dude can gaurd you.

I am Hispanic and for the most part I agree with Hopkins. Why do I agree? I know what he means first hand. Blacks are built differently, 2 of my best friends are blacks. They order fast food and eat McDonalds every day, they stay lean, they don't work out, they have 6 packs. One of them is 21 the other one is 16, they're brothers. They have like the worst diet out of all my friends, and they're in the best shape out of all of my friends.
