Because it's the United States if America, in addition to the reality that, in every country with any type of slavery in their history, even one drop of black/African blood makes you non-white.

Beat me to it. American society still has a long way to go when it comes to issues of race.

Besides, I doubt playing up the Irish side of his family would matter much, Ward has already mentioned how important his father was to his life on several occasions and no one seems to give a ****.

Hell, the majority of the posters / boxing fans on this forum refuse to acknowledge that Ward is anything but black hence the assumption that he is the heir apparent to Mayweather's black fan base.

I can see what you're saying, but Ward doesn't really self-promote well. He doesn't really build up his own fights (I'm not saying this is a good or bad thing). He seems to want to stay away from the publicity while still accruing as much money as possible (not easy). With that being said, he may not resonate with the Irish culture. If that's the case, why try to fake it? I'm just speculating here, but I'm okay with him not pimping out his heritage especially if it's not a part of him that he fully embraces. That would just be a facade and to some degree disrespectful.

Great insight. I was about to write something like that. Despite his white heritage, Ward didn't and still doesn't embrace that part of him one bit. That's why almost everyone considers him a black fighter.

Let Ward or DeGale try and tell a white supremacists he is not black. They are like *****. Let ***** tell people he is not black see how that goes. Ward is black, and goes through the black struggle.


You see how Kaprenick is being treated? Wasn't he raised by white people? Isn't he mixed? He is black period.

the Black struggle? what, EBT cards and welfare checks while they prance around with their pants around their knees instead of getting a job?

prove it you dumb ****

You think slavery started with Blacks? ****** ****ing idiot, every race on Earth has been enslaved. Blacks were just the ones who cry about it because they couldn't break their own chains of bondage. Whites felt sorry for them and did it.

Getting paid well for tune ups one after another is black struggle?

Shut your f@ggot ass up pussie. Ward can fight and is exciting. He would beat the shyt out of pussie g that's for sure.

You are the same fuucking dumb ass who said Rousey could beat Floyd in a fight. We haven't seen that bytch since she got knocked out. I know it hurts your heart that black fighters dominate. But get used to it pussie. And if pussie g ever steps his game up- Ward, Lara, DeGale any black fighter that's elite beats that pussie easy.

You still think the bytch who got the shyt beat out of her by a former boxer could beat Floyd?? Fuucking idiot

In case you hadn't noticed spazz...andre ward is white.

No f@ggot. Dealing with racists corrupt government. You must realize more white people are coke heads and on drugs and getting government assistance in this country. But the struggle of a corrupt system you dyck head.

Your uncle must have slept with your mother and had you f@ggot. You seem like one of these right wing rednecks who was ******ed as a kid. You should talk to the proper authority and seek the help you're looking for.

Naw! Being accused and hated for being a Christian no criminal record, married, and a clean cut American. Ward is hated like Floyd and disrespected but he is the complete OPPOSITE how they carry themselves. While pussie g is adored.

More people in this country would rather see pussie g succeed and Kovalev beat Ward. Ward is a clean cut American and won a gold medal representing the USA, and people in this country are still rooting for Kovalev to beat him. That's the black struggle. If Ward was white all the media and majority of Americans would be backing their fighter. Stop acting ****** idiot
