Low self-esteem underachievers, intimidated by African-American dominance

[SCtrojansbaby]

African Americans have been passed in the sport by Mexicans and Europeans .

American Boxing is going down the hill. It started in the 1990's with collapse of the USSR and end of Cold War. Mexico/Europe been taking over. Look at these FOTY, only real american on the list is Micky Ward and Augustus, Diaz and Corales both mexicans.

If you look 40 years ago it wouldve been 100% Americans. Now in the last 11 years theres only been 2. They dont want to give the fans a show, they just want to run around for 12 rounds complaining, lazy ass.

No Question the World Has Caught Up To America when it comes to Boxing And Some Are Currently Ahead of Them Now!

But...dominating for a 3-5 years still doesn't match the DECADES OF DOMINATION from American Fighters (not just Blacks by the way, also the Italian Americans, Mexican Americans)

In summary, yes, African-Americans have made the biggest contributions to boxing. That this would intimidate anyone or ruin their world only means that your self-esteem is based on some racial solidarity and not on your own individual accomplishments, which tells all of us intelligent folk that your real day to day life is pretty darn pathetic.
Congratulations to Bernard Hopkins! -ATG

The way your thread is written doesn't help. It seems to simply want to incite people who might not be a certain skin color....

Hopkins is afraid of year round random blood testing,

even though, the company he works for,


calls for Olympic style blood testing for another fighter.

Does anyone else find this a bit odd?

Black American boxing dominance is a thing of the past and has not existed say 2002 onwards.

Oh and btw, if amateur boxing is the best indicator, Americans wont be getting back anytime soon.

Boxing belongs to Europeans, Latin Americans.

American boxing is not even going downhill. Its already downhill. Down the drains, and theres no salvaging it.

Ancient Egyptians were actually a wide mix of peoples. Sumerian, Greek, Assyrian, Babylonian, etc. Egypt was conquered and influenced by all those. And yes, there's DNA evidence that 30-40% of the upper nile population from various grave sites had what is commonly called "negroid" characteristics in bone structure, etc.

Not to get tooooooo off topic.

Oh, one more thing

Calzaghe > Hopkins always on an alltime great list.
