    When Joe Louis fought for the USA against the Third Reich did people cheer awkwardly?

    When the UK cheered for Lewis against Klitschko is it because they didn't like white fighters? Do people understand nationality?


    "Melting Pot" and nationality don't mean **** in a country where this guy can potentially be the next president.

      "Melting Pot" refers - in the American context - to the idea that all peoples should conform to Anglo American values and culture.

      In fact someone like Trump is actually much closer to the concept of a "Melting Pot" than any other modern politician - most of who prefer the "Salad Bowl" theory (the idea that different cultures can co-exist peacefully).

          I guess it makes you feel better to label things that confuse you as "trolling".

            Race and religion have defined human beings for thousands of years.

            Anyone who claims to be free of any residual prejudice or preference is not being truthful.

            We all pick a favourite, otherwise competitive sports would be pointless.

            My favourite **** genre is interracial btw, I love those PAWGs enjoying some mandingo muscle.

            Peace.

              Up until you started fabricating political theories about American history and culture is when you started receiving troll points.

                Its just closet racists that criticize someone who likes black fighters. I really dont care what skin color a fighter is if they can fight and are good im a fan what nationallity they are is irrelevant.

                  If you disagree with someone they are "fabricating political theories". Don't you understand this?

                  This is how political discussion works these days. People who disagree with you are liars, trolls, ******, ignorant etc.

                  Personally I find it silly to engage in this type of stuff.

                    the funny things is. American boxing fans aren't allowed to like black fighters, says many on NSB. Many assume that because a poster likes A black fighter they're automatically ''pro-black'' or black themselves. lol

                    I'm content with many of the posters in the thread. there are many posters or fans in general that like a variety of fighters from all different shades. that's the point and the importance of proper boxing culture.
