Racial Divide NSB

[John Locke]

Then root for your kind without trying to discredit other fighters, that's the problem, that's the difference between you, Americans, white and black ones, and the rest of the world. I mean, there's a LOT of fans who's more obsessed with thrashing Andre Ward or Golovkin instead of supporting their own fighters. Stop spending so much of your damn time making countless amount of threads about Ward or Golovkin being cowards, this place is full of haters who's doing NOTHING productive in the real life

You don't have to disrespect somebody to support your people, that's what you don't understand

Great post, absolutely nailed it.

It's clear that the white fans love GGG, Kov, Pac and mostly European fighters, while the black fans love PBC fighters, Ward, Mayweather and Crawford.

There's such a bias and subjectivity that all the threads are becoming black and white in criticism. No one is being honest about fights anymore.

I agree and I'm going to rank the fanbases in terms of ****ness:

1. The black fanbase
2. The white/east euro/some time neo-**** fanbase
3. The mexican fanbase

I don't see anything wrong with ethnic pride and rooting for an athlete based upon their ethnicity or race. Look at world cup soccer, a perfect example of ethnic fan bases. Blacks cheer on their favorite athletes like Mayweather, Hopkins, and Crawford, while whites will support GGG, Kovalev and Klitschko. Mexicans and Puerto Ricans get behind their fighters, as do Asians.

The problem is when you totally dismiss a fighter based upon his race or ethnicity. Anyone who totally dismisses the talents of top tier fighters is usually motivated by race. As much as I dislike Mayweather, I can admit he is a great athlete and a great defensive fighter. I don't like his style and I don't like him as a person, but not because he is black. I have all-time favorite fighters of all races and backgrounds; Hagler, Duran, Barrera, Jones Jr., Pacquiao, Loma, Gonzalez, Spence, Cotto, and the list goes on.

I watch the hate that pours out over GGG on this forum and I consider the source. Most of it is race-based, and these aren't true fans of the sport. They are fans of particular fighters and cannot appreciate anyone outside of their race. Don't tell them that though, because the truth is a tough pill to swallow.

Forum should be NSR (non stop racism) not NSB. If you use boxing as a way of promoting a racist agenda then dont bother posting on in my threads or replying to comments. Dont know whether the black panther forum redirects to this site or something, is getting ridiculous...

Says the guy that's been banned for racism 3x. You, Jubei, Freedom etc are the biggest problem on this site. If someone doesn't agree with your views on who they should support you accuse them of racism. Which starts arguments about race.

Boxingscene is too lenient with this shit, how the fuck can you ban a guy 3x for racism and let him back?

[LetOutTheCage]

It's sad that main focus post fight seems to be about race and a supposed robbery. I've yet to see anyone really credit both fighters and congratulate them on a great fight

If that can make a peace between you guys - we're the enemy for both of your sides, so seeing you bashing each other like that is something that amuses me. I have fun reading all that **** sometimes

Or maybe people shouldn't be so sensitive. You bring up black and white Americans but you know nothing about black Americans. If you knew anything about us, other than what you've seen in movies and on TV, you'd know trash talking has always been a part of our culture. If you think this is bad you wouldn't last one hour at a black barbershop

you mean you actually believe when Conor says ''he is the face of boxing,'' pugilist fans at this cite feel insecure.

ironic, with your funny theories and justifications for Conor at a boxing forum.

yes, boxing fans need Nate Diaz to protect the integrity of boxing and marketing ploys! Irishcutionerism!

Boxing is getting weaker by the day, same reason why GGG doesn't sell and Mayweather did.

Why Lomachenko fights on Boxing after Dark but doesn't get mentioned as probably the most technical fighter ever so far.

Boxing has no star, there is no excitement. I believe this occurred after the UFC NYC card honestly.

PBC is putting on fights in casinos on Bounce and HBO isn't getting enough of a budget to pay their guys to fight.

The average viewer of a boxing telecast in 2015 was 53 fuckking years old. You tell me how that sounds for this young and vivacious sport.
