Which Asian Boxer Is Most Skilled - Pacquiao, Golovkin, Khan, Inoue, Shiming, Donaire

[FlatLine]

Golovkin reminds me of a younger Jackie Chan sometimes, obviously the haircut is the main difference.

Khan is British. Saying Khan is Asian is like claiming from guy who lives in Boston is Irish.

Pacquiao is the most proven, Golovkin I believe will prove he's just as good though in the future once these cowards start fighting him.

Well Khan calls himself a British Asian - Britain citizen with Asian roots.

Khan and it's not even close

I knew you would say that ha ha ha ha ha

anyone but Pac

But Obama is more black than GGG is asian lol. Triple g ain't even close to being asian.

His mother is Korean and he grew up in Kazakhstan which is in Asia. It's north of Afghanistan and borders China.

[PAC-BOY]

if obama is black

then yes ggg is asian

Wait...Obama is Black?

How obvious was it that this thread would end up being an argument about whether Golovkin is Asian or not?

Let's not argue about the British guy on the list, let's talk about the guy who lives in Kazakhstan and has a Korean mother.

Why are people saying Asian isn't an ethnicity? Are you saying we can not judge the best Asian boxer?

Actually that was my first thought, I just didn't bother posting it because people were busy discussing GGG's asianness...

But yes, Khan was born and raised in the UK. If Asian is not an ethnicity (and it isn't), then what exactly makes him Asian?

We are talking about his ethnicity not nationally. Or if you like his heritage/race.

I believe he has referred tom himself as British - Asian. A similar term to African American.
