    Only Andre ward but he's a halfbreed im pretty sure you saw deontay wilder knocking the arreolas out ya boy doe

    Mexicans arnt very skilled with the technique so I see why you would cry about the more skilled brotha who could beat the Mexican every round with ease.

      Uhh nah.. He didn't give it his all against GGG?? He tried NOT to lose, and not to get KO'd.

      He didn't put it all on the line at the drop of a dime.

      He literally did the exact opposite lol..

      Maybe he could have won the fight if he actually tried to fight like he wanted to win?? Or maybe he would have gotten brutally KO'd?? Only the truly great will dare to test their limits like that, doe.

      Several experts also noted this exact same thing. Porter's father commented how Jacobs looked like he was fighting simply not to get KO'd.

      But his fight against cancer, and ability to not only make it back in boxing, but to prove himself the second best MW in the world? yeah, that's pretty inspiring.

        But this thread is ******ed. Plenty of black fighters got MAD heart. In both MMA and boxing.

        Getting hit int he face more doesn't equal having more heart.

          What's up with all these racist threads around here? Idiots are forever singling out Black fighters.

            I'm sure he felt Golovkins power and knew he wouldn't win a fire fight. I thought Jacobs tried to move
            and then land hard punches that would hurt G but G didn't get hurt. That threw his game plan out the window. What's he supposed to do stand in one spot and trade. He'd get his head knocked off. He fought the best he could under the circumstances.

              Plenty of black boxers who got heart bradley for example stood out against the onslaught of provodnikov.

              Its just the majority of mainstream black boxers today are brainwashed by a slick cherrypicking overpaid style. And blacks would defend it as sweet science so that they could defend their brutha.

                They ride our coattails and hate us at the same time.

                      Brook isn't a black American, he's a Brit.

                      I agree with your point though, Black American fighters all being defensive runners is just a NSB stereotype. There are actually plenty who like to come forward and fight aggressively.

                      And since when did being a defensive boxer = lack of heart?
