I remember some white kid debuted on the Judah-Mabuza undercard, was a ww and sounded like he had alot of hype behind him, it wasnt HBO but iit seemed like he had a following, Anyone think of any white fighters coming coming up, Preferably that speak English and will appeal to the wider audiance?

        I said irrefutable proof and you've given your unqualified opinion. Show me proof these people are "left wing, zionist ***s" who are purposely doing these things.

          Er Katsidis is there ebcause he is exciting, and he made Cassa look old.

            HBO has zero interest in white fighters outside of using them as opponents. There was an article posted on Boxingscene last year about how they were going to focus on bringing African American fans back into boxing in a big way.

            It is what it is. This is why Showtime is a MILLION times better; they don't give a **** what nationality the fighters are and they don't have an obvious "HBO favored" winner, which is why their fights are exciting a lot more often.

              I understand Pac being featured, but I don't understand the push for Mayweather who's fights are always dull 12 round decisions.
              Well he sells PPV's duh.

                Still waiting for that proof. And you editing your post has come WAY to late as I've already got the original quoted. Nice try at hiding your shameful bigotry.

                  I don't what they are doing but if I were them I would have gave Pirog a 3 fight contract and then hyped him up. But that still wouldn't solve the "American" problem.
