How funny. More like and extremely biased and pathetic assesment of the facts.I think the whole racism angle is a load of crap. At the same time, if the bros were not as big as they are I certainly don't think they would be near as effective as they have been. If they were forced to fight quality fighter from the past I think they lose much of the time anyway. But if they didn't have that size advantage.....I might not even consider them competitive with most. That has nothing to do with color, but with an honest assessment of the facts.
Race is not a factor, nationality is. If they were american and had the hype machine behind them everybody would be on their nuts.Comment

Race has a lot to do with it. I've always found many Klitschko haters are people who ONLY LIKE black boxers. People like yourself. Yes JAB, I notice you also have no respect for Calzaghe and other white boxers.
Be honest with us, JAB. If the Klitschkos were black, you'd consider them to be ATG heavyweights.
But others don't like the Klitschkos because of nationalism not race. Many British fans fall into that category.
I like the Klitschko's as people. I even consider Vitaly my favorite heavyweight at the moment, so I don't get how you can claim I hate them and "ONLY LIKE black boxers". You're upset because unlike you I won't bow down and kiss ass to some fake, contrived greatness you want to assume.
If I didn't find it so amusing I might be insulted by this post. But considering it is coming from a poster who is well known for his racial favoritism and religious intolerance all I can do is laugh!

Has the thought ever cross your mind if they weren't 6'8 they would have better movement. The bottom line is the Klitschko brothers are Brotha killa's as you people sayComment

Challenge them. I'll be happy to give you an education if that is what you're looking for.

No I would not because that wouldn't change a boring ass style or lack of competition in a crappy era. As far as nationality goes, you can't accuse me of that either as some of my favorite fighters today are Pac, Froch, Cotto, Gamboa, Donaire and JaunMa.
Face the facts, you guys are simply butt hurt that people don't agree with you and are criticizing your hero's. Well I hate to break it to you, but that's what objective fans of the sport do. Unobjective nuthuggers on the other hand do what you do.Comment

Challenge what? You BS about this being a weak era? I have already done that repeatedly, in various thread, to various posters. Educate me? You?
You're just another hypocrite like the rest. Apparenly this is a weak era, well what the **** kind of an era was it when Geroge Foreman came out of retirement and won the linear HW champion? Or Holyfield who apparently is an ATG of a "strong era" that would destroy the Klitschkos lost to a LHW
The only thing you're going to accomplish is make me laugh.

You might be right or you might be wrong! I don't know I can't talk for other people or know how they think! But me personally race is never an issue and if someone has an issue with another person race then their pathetic end of!Comment

You're the racist, not me.

Do you see me discrediting the top black boxers like Foreman, Leonard, Lewis etc the way you do the Klitschkos, Calzaghe, etc? The truth is: I don't hate them. But you clearly hate white boxers.
"Religious intolerance" - I don't know where you got that idea, the exact OPPOSITE is true. I always say we should respect each others' religious beliefs.
You must have me confused with squealpiggy, a poster who obviously hates Christians, religious ***s and ******s.
Stop discrediting white boxers. Look past their color and judge them by their achievements without allowing your racial hatred to blind you to seeing what they've accomplished.Last edited by The Hammer; 07-05-2011, 09:40 AM.Comment

When Foreman came out of retirement and then won the title there were 4 active all time greats and sure-fire hall of famers and that isn't including Bowe, Golota, Moorer, Morrison, Bruno, Mercer and other who would fight several top 10 fights each instead of going 1 and done like today's pretenders that doesn't have a whiff of a hall of famer amongst them.
Please son, you make this to easy!!Comment

I will agree race is a factor and always will be in boxing. The same can be said about the Klitschko's biggest fans on this site. No doubt most if not all are white. Look at guys like Tunney (aka Freedom), Jim Jefferies, & hitman. 2 are named after white fighters and all use white fighters in their avatars about 99% of the time. Two of them red k me pretty often and would call me a ni**er. When I told them I was white, they changed it to ******. lol Yeah, no doubt a lot of racial white pride going on with the Klitschko's biggest fans here. If the Klitschko's were black, you better believe most of their white fans would not be fans at all.FIRST OFF.....
im not saying its the "only" factor.. and i am not saying that all people that diss klitschkos or not like them... but i will say that to some people that is it.. Race.. its an issue...
i think its hard for people to see 2 white boys running the division... and i am not saying black people have a problem with the klitschkos... all people have a problem....
the HW division has always been dominated by african americans, and black fighters.... ali, tyson, lennox etc. etc.. and i think its hard for people to see 2 ukranians ruling the division.. its that image....
now im sure there are some black boxing fans that hate the klitschkos cause there white.. IM NOT saying all black boxing fans are like this.... but some.. and i dont think anyone can argue that..
no one can argue that there is people out there that don't like the klitschkos cause there white...
like i said before im not making a general argument that everyone hates the klitschkos cause there white.. but that race is a factor.... and you cannot deny that it is not..Comment
