How Many Black Posters Like Kovalev and How Many White Posters Like Ward?

[Weltschmerz]

Boxing can definitely bring out a tribal, us vs. them mindset, which according to a Hell on Wheels episode amounts to a distraction for the idiot masses and will mean nothing no matter who wins.

But since the racial aspect of the sport comes up often, I thought I'd do this little survey.

For myself, I am sure I fit the stereotype. I am white and I like Kovalev in the ring and out of the ring. I don't like Ward in the ring, but I think he's pretty cool outside of the ring, although I saw on a video where he claimed Mayweather invented the jab to the body. WTF?

Anyway, just curious.

If you want to make a survey, maybe you should add a poll.

There's nothing 'wrong' about supporting fighters of your own creed and color, btw.

Ward is really awful at being black. He doesn't joke about growing up poor, doesn't wear ***elry or any loud colors at all, speaks quiet, doesn't show off expensive purchases. His facebook posts are all about his wife and kids. That's not very entertaining.

Kovalev killed a dude. That's what I'm talkin about!

In case you're circumcised, it means that your mom is a Sephardim ***... (My wife was ***ish...)

That's me! Bingo. But, I hate ********* and many things going on in and around Israel.

Ward's father was white too so it sort of negates the thread.

I met SOG at fentons(ice creamery in Oakland) years back, I complimented Ward on beating froch etc...he smiled and said something like "re watch the fight, I barely won." He shook my hand, and went back to his people.

It was impressive. No bragging, nothing, I was talking crap, and Ward walked away! SOG!

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

I'm Mexican respect both fighter but I like Kovalev much more just for his raw aggressiveness and his ability to box which is underratted here like it always is with an aggressive fighter.

puerto rican here, like both but lean towards kovalev by the slimmest of margins.

Ward is a Christian. A child of God. A son of God. Proper parenting will set the right path.

Ward looks like his dad! His brother is handsome!
