To be fair, I think sport dominance is mostly driven by socio-economics.

Sports that are relatively inexpensive to play (basketball for example) are usually dominated by **********, such as blacks. It's also a cultural thing.

Sports that are expensive to play (such as golf and hockey) are dominated by white people.

Excellent point. In the end, physical sports that can be played (or in the case of boxing unfortunately must) be played out in the street are dominated by the poor. You grow up fighting? Become a fighter. Inner anger and physically gifted? Play football or box or basketball. Grow up with money? Play hockey or lax. In the end this sport is dominated by the POOR, and as a kid who grew up in a low-middle income family I still take pride in that. I love to see hard work pay off.
