I'm more bothered that the guy fights orthodox in a movie called southpaw.

This x10000000!

Black people don't have a lot of $ as a race, so companies don't spend time/resources marketing to them.

Simple economics.

Yall trying to play the race card with this too, that's your damn problem, always blaming someone else for there own damn problems.

Thread starter and the people agreeing are Eastern Euros. Take your boring tea party rants elsewhere.

While it's true that there are more boxing movies, generally speaking, made about white characters, we got quite a selection of movies starring black or asian characters too. Check some of these out if you haven't seen them:

The Great White Hope (1970)
Penitentiary I (1979)
Midnight Sting (1992)
The Hurricane (1992)
Tokyo Fist (1995)
Ali (2001)
Blood of a Champion (2005)
Nurse. Fighter. Boy (2008)
Penitentiary II (2008)
Creed (2015)

Yea Penitentiary..Leon Isaac Kennedy doing an Ali/ sugar Ray impression..

I haven't seen the previews. Does he actually fight orthodox in the movie? I know they screwed the movie poster up, but I figured surely they didn't have him fighting orthodox in the actual movie.

In the clips I saw he was throwing straight right hands. I haven't seen the movie yet though.

Lol. I'll still give it a chance. It may just be a storyline in the movie.
