Jermain Taylor: I'll never lose to another white boy.

[Hougigo]

Seem to be the only ones beating him

[IIG]

I'm a little concerned with JT's mental state right now. So much of what I've been seeing and hearing from him lately has been out of character. I'm going to support him no matter what though. I'll be ecstatic if he gets this W.

[SN!PER]

Where are the photos of the weigh-in?

Jermain shot the photographers for hype.

[sicko]

WTF?

I think Sam Soliman will knock him into MUCH NEEDED retirement

[Boxing Goat]

Damn this dude is nutty as hell. Check these videos.

And his header: "Thank God my president got black in him"

Has he always been like this? Maybe personality change from all the head blows? Whatever the case, it is definitely not a good look for this former middleweight champ of the world.

Wow, I liked Jermain until I heard this.

It's a fact that almost every African-American is racist anyways so it's not a suprise but I just didn't think Taylor rolled like that. Maybe he got a grudge after getting pasted by three different varieties of white fighter.

I now wish he would fight GGG so he can cap off the cycle and be knocked out of the game for good.

Worthless idiots shoot their cousins when they are professional fighters and get mad when they get knocked out by white fighters, lol.

It's a fact that most African Americans are racist, is it? And you can't tell Jermain was making a joke about himself, since all he's lost to are white people? smh

[Foreign Soil]

Doesn't come off as a joke at all.. no clue why some people keep saying that.

And what? . . . . . .There is no scientific or biological basis for what we term 'race'. It's a purely social construct. So when we racially recognise other people, it's not just a case of simply reading racial meanings off of their skin, rather we're inscribing those meanings onto their very bodies. Now that in itself is quite a violent practice, but here's the thing.

Racial ascriptions differ. We are forced into very different subject positions according to the pigment of our skin. So whilst the opposite of Jermain's quip may bring with it all the weight of the degrading and dehumanising stereotypes that have ever been used as a means to justify historical and contemporary acts of subjugation, being called a 'white boy' in the dominant discourse carries virtually no negative connotations. None.

It may have been re-articulated by certain sections of Black America to assume the meanings of nerdiness, physical weakness, and having a lack of sexual prowess. But, that was in response to racist ideologies that posit Black males as violent and hyper-sexualised and as having a particular association to the body at the expense of the mind. So, that re-articulation isn't a very effective way to counter racism because it unwittingly plays to its opposite negative stereotypes.

So as a 'white boy' there is no real offence here. Just a man being childish.

Well deconstructed.... More people should take the time to do this to realize how words gain their power and influence
