Let's be honest here, Kovalev - Stevenson is a racial thing.

    Your assumption alone is racist, I'm a white guy who supports Stevenson. There goes your theory.

      Really? If I were a racist I wouldn't have a different person in my corner because the principle of being racist in the first place is because you don't like or trust the values or morals of the races you are not a member of.
      Why do you think Hopkins has never been associated with a white trainer?

      Oh and if you are so convinced as to make a statement like the bolded part I highlighted, wouldn't it be fair to say that a fair amount of racist ethnic fighters have hired 'white' trainers as well?

        It seems like this fight, in regards to Kovalev especially, is evoking racial tension. Last night on the Kovavel-Agnew fight thread I noted about 15 racist remarks towards blacks. I'm not white nor black so I'm neutral here, just calling it how I see it.

          real boxing fans are understandably outraged by adonis stevenson's cowardice..i've only noticed floyd fans who support stevenson's move.....because all they care about is how much money a fighter makes rather than who they should fight

          they're not real boxing fans...


          No real boxing fan supports a Ring champion who is afraid to fight the best in his division.

                I remember in 2009-10 when the *******s used to go around calling people n!gger and sp!c all the time and telling mexicans to go make some tacos and blacks to go eat some watermelon lmfao. Sadly racism will never seize to exist.

                  An absolutely accurate generalisation when it comes to this forum, tho.

                    I'm fairly sure that wasn't from white posters, there are a group of latinos on NSB who do not like black fighters or boxing fans.

                      Posting a link to these remarks might be helpful, otherwise that just sounds like bs.
