But a lot of black fighters are overrated and overhyped IMO based on their colour.

They are either the next Mike Tyson or next Floyd Mayweather if they are A) Athletic sluggers or B) Quite good boxers.

Kirkland and Jacobs are just two recent examples.

some blacks are good some are bad some latinos are good some latinos are bad some whites are good some whites are bad etc. it depends on the individual not his race

Kirkland and Jacob were never considered elite fighters so your comments are plain dumb. Trying to group Kirkland and Jacob in the same category as Tyson and Mayweather is idiotic.

Who ever even considered Jacobs that good? Or even Kirkland for that matter? I'm pretty sure a lot of people thought Kirkland would be dropped eventually...

[Sparked_1985]

I will always tune in to watch Kirkland fight.
