Even though race does play into it, this is a BS article. Its BS because theres 5000 other attributes of a boxer that are way more important to people the skin color you idiot.

Things like:

* Entertainment value of their fighting style

* Dominance over long periods of time

* Willingness to fight anyone

* Having the ability to clean out a division, and then maybe moving up and doing it again.

Leave it to a brain washed idiot American to write an article like this.

As if white america wont like the black fighter as much, if he isn't a bad guy.

Besides, almost every bad guy in new movies and TV is an idiot white guy you moron. That kind of Fks your ****** theory.

58 posts since 2008? You get that writer my Alt profile friend.

The bold point is ****** as hell. Every bad guy in movies are white because every actor is. It helps prove the racism because it shows that there is only one group getting employment

Stop crying.

The word Black sets off a Tidal wave of tears.

More entitled attitudes and less accomplishments and accountability for failures more like it. The great black hope is alive and well due to the dominant forces of eastern boxing. Maybe you can start a new sport and run around to see who doesnt get hit the most? Perfect adaptation to todays usa fighter....

What kinda trash article is this? Look at the "white" so-called superstars in the sport. None are American and the knockout most of their opponents, you know like Mike Tyson did back in the day.

Floyd was a superstar because he had a following from people who were in love with rich, flashy, brash African Americans who were attracted to the Hip-Hop scene. As long as he won the fights, he held his status.

If those same fans aren't attracted to other African American boxers for various reasons then blame should be placed on them, not the sport or non-African American boxers, or the fans.

Where are all the Native American superstars at? What racial bias is holding them back? I want answers to the racist forces holding this true minority back....... what say you author, what say you?

Well they were damn near exterminated by whites so that would be a pretty good example of racism holding them back. And they can't even get jobs playing themselves in movies, its usually just a white guy in face paint

Other races do not play the race card. They dont need to. They arent looking for excuses for their failures. This is why so many black fighters today fail, they are entitled and soft. Adrienne Broner?

Your racist and anti white attacks are EXACTLY why your culture is at the bottom of society throughout the world. ALWAYS making excuses. The weakest men behave this way which is why your culture is even further behind others in terms of progress. Sad and pathetic.

Ricardo Williams 2.0

Maybe they will build him up carefully and pad his record but something tells me this kid won't turn out to be a great pro boxer.

He seemed to have alright power in the Olympics but appeared pretty feather fisted in his debut.

He also had his chin up in the air when throwing combos. TBH his style kind of reminded me of Khan very amateurish..

Not that everybody is Floyd I get that but that's the bar I set for Amateurs coming to the pro's and the kid is no where near as polished as Floyd was in his debut. Floyd at 19 would have knocked Stevenson flat out imo.

Even when he gets his pro style developed he doesn't appear he will ever be good enough to beat lomachenko or anything..

Saying he could become a star is 1 thing but superstar I just don't see it happening for him. Not good enough

Just another hype job. Boxing needs a black hope and this guy just isnt it. Ricardo Williams comes to mind seeing this kid. Soft, weak and entitled. Cried like a grammas boy when the Cuban castrated him for all to see. That fight showed thos kid had no guts. Hope he gets an education cause he wont be making a living as a fighter.

Typical insecure cuck.

Eastern Europe ain't dominating anything but the old folks home.

And how many "white superstar boxers" are American? I mean born in America? I can't name a single one.

The author is full of schit and a prime example of why America can't seem to move past the color of a man's damn skin.

Look who's talking.

ROFL Mayweather been retired - you should be ashamed of your self right about now for bringing him up, and why would i need to see at ppv numbers anyways ?

Lomachenko, GGG , Kovalev, Gvozdyk , Vusyk , Beterbiev these guys took the game

Out of all those fighters you named there's not one name that transcends. Even Canelo's numbers are down across the board. And why should I be ashamed for bringing up Mayweather? People make 10 threads a day on Mayweather.
