Can the Euro Bum Myth Die Now?

It is already been debunked. Pacquiao debunked that Asian's aren't that talented and can't be an ATG. But here we are in the generation of one of the most greatest offensive fighters of all time. Joe Calzaghe debunked that Europeans can't beat slicker Americans, and here we are still talking about How Joe beat hopkins. Lomachenko debunked that europeans doesn't have great foot work, and here we are Lomachenko presenting his own pacquiao calibre foot work.

These are stereotypes racists created against foreigners like us.

I like trolling people a little bit here, but I always get back to rational thinking

That's cool. I just wonder, though, why the trolling? I mean, I'm sure it can be fun, but it's BS. Haha

That's pretty much my point. Anyone can walk into a boxing gym, give it all they have and get results. I don't think nationality or ethnicity has much to do with it. Just saying that isn't tonight's performance along with last weekend's proof enough? I think it is and it's all good, though. Maybe I pay too much attention to trolls. Haha

I ignore the trolls. Threads that craps on Golovkin, or Pacquiao, I ignored them. They just can't make a good conversation without calling names or "You don't know **** about boxing." Phrases.

Yeah, when they start in on that talk, I'm pretty much gone. One poster flat out just commented You're an idiot for saying that it was ridiculous to say GGG got exposed in a fight where he broke his opponent's eye socket. I just replied with a pic of GGG showing the mouth guard. Haha.

It was dispelled long before Loma.

If anything, these days it's probably more busting balls than anything of substance from anybody who has been paying attention.

It's like the Euro ****'s on here proclaiming "Murikan boxing is dead lol pwned!

Clearly isn't the case in either way.

Oh no. The American and Euro boxing scenes are solid. The Asians are as well. It's a sport that is always shifting and I like it. The more diverse the better for the sport.

White Americans are the ones who popularized that phrase when describing western Europeans. It's weird how they relate to Eastern Europeans more than Western Europeans. And not just in boxing. Kessler gets more love than Froch. There used to be a time when you could put the name "Irish" on any white fighter and he'd get support. Now you got people saying Loma had a better year than Frampton. You got Joe Smith Jr coming off an impressive KO and he's about to fight Hopkins but he's getting no love. That kid Sosa is a hell of a fighter and improving but he gets no love. I don't know if promoters messed it up by pushing so many great white hypes but seems like white Americans don't support white American fighters or white Western European fighters.

I support Smith. I like him really. But come on. I think he's just being set up for Hopkins. Of course, he could land with that right hand. It shocked me that he took Fonfara out like that. Didn't see anybody doing that. He's got my support. Seems like a hard working nobody who went for it. Who couldn't root for him?

The Eastern Euros are beasts, the Western not so much.
