    And also I know a lot of people in real life from all over the world and different races and there's equal good and bad people everywhere.

    Online though there is a lot of trolls and the online African american fanbase are truly the worst around, and they turn people against African american fighters

    They are actually racist in the literal sense which is they think African Americans are inherently Superior to all other races, and they don't even veil that view. However they point the finger at anyone who criticizes and play the race card.

    I'll say it again online African Americans are the WORST fans by far.

    But in real life all African Americans I meet are good people and a lot more sensible than these boxing scene trolls so I don't take that as a reflection of African Americans in general.
    True, they are right now but to be fair it fluctuates. There was a time were Filipinos were the worst when Manny was dominating boxing. Then next thing you know it will be hispanics followed by whites. It happens all the time. What sad about it is they don't even care about boxing, they just care about their race doing well in the sport for their weird dumbass agendas. Like being good at a sport makes a race superior to begin with. That's the Internet for you. Lots of weird mofos.

            Definitely not race.

            As a south african, i like to support our boys as theirs not too many left at the top level now, so if Zolani Tete or Tommy Oousthuizen, etc are fighting i'll support them.

            Apart from that may the best man win really

              I support all of the Irish and Mexican fighters. I'm not Mexican but they are basically just a tanner version of us. Not me in particular as I'm kissed golden from the sun. I connect with them,at times I consider myself trans-ethnic.

              I try to support an equal number of fighters of all races,ethnic background,and nationality. Italians,Polish,Scottish,Cubans,Ricans,etc

              I'm in search of a good ***ish fighter to support so if anyone knows of one hmu. Notice I said "a good ***ish fighter". I don't want another Yuri Foreman situation on my hands where I wear a yamanaka to the bar in support of Yuri only for him to get his ass beat by Cotto and embarrass me greatly.
