      USA! USA! lol

      A lot of people seems to be Anti Americans In General regardless of Race. I been seeing people on this forum for years talking about how their country or their region of the world is "Taking Over Boxing"

            Now you're pretending you like "American" fighters. That's cool. Someone on the forum has you shook I guess.

            But my question is how are they different?

            Is liking a fighter just because he's American any better/worse than liking a fighter just because he's white or black?

            I don't see the difference.

            Immediately loving someone just because they're "American" seems even dumber than liking them based on their race. Most Americans have zilch in common with each other. Just seems like a copout.
            I used to have a signature about Floyd? It's still the same!

              To me, I don't like or dislike fighters by race or nationality. When they get in the ring they are just fighters and I judge them by what they do in there. It is irritating that there are so many people here that are unable to do this.

                  It's very unfortunate but since white American fighters have been ran out of the sport, they think it's an obligation to root for fighters who share the same color skin as them. It's a very barbaric way to look at it, but it's how they operate. I think they should start rooting for more American fighters, that way they aren't always so depressed all the time with their losing fighters. American fighters know how to win.

                      What race parts? Lol. I wrote that intentionally cause I know in some insecure minds people battle contraversial théories. I know it got you. Ver. 3 will come eventually. You can get it too.

                      Just smoke a spliff and listen to Maggot Brain and stfu. When you're 60 you'll thank me.
