I'm tired of people saying tha What about Paulie Malignaggi, Chris Algiere and Butterbean?

Lmfao you said this wasn't meant for trolling but it sure sounds like it. Algieri and malignaggi made it to champ level so they're legit but butter bean cmon

in boxing, white americans sucks, in mma/ufc, they're dominating.

The problem is the real racists who don't like it when a white boxer is doing well for himself. Greatness comes in all shades of skin.

Combat sport is always looked down upon as a poor man's sport. The majority of white American boxers are from the working class. I don't think white parents are grooming their sons and daughters to get into such a brutal way to make a living. With that being said, I disagree white fighters (American or other) are less skilled than any other fighter. I think if anything it's a matter of marketing. It's probably harder to market a white championship boxer/MMA fighter unless they're from somewhere else. The reason being is there's a good mix of people rooting for and against whoever the main draw is. I can't imagine a white fighter being marketed purely as the heel. I couldn't imagine a white Muhammad Ali. We saw how quickly people turned on McGregor when he tried to play the part.

i agreed on the part about how white parents are not grooming their kids to become the next world champ in boxing.

but i disagree with you on how it will be hard to market a white champion. if anything it will be super easy!! white americans is dying for a white champion to come along so they can support him.

look at conor, he's not even white american but has the support from all the whites in america. if conor was an american he would be view as god in their eyes.

White Americans aren't boxing as much as they were in decades past. For one thing, there aren't as many gyms as there once was. For another, boxing has always been a poor man's out. During the early to mid-1900s, there were a lot more whites living in poverty. Boxing was a way out if they could excel.

I'm tired of people saying that white Americans can't fight! Yeah, Rocky Marciano was Italian, and yeah, Stipe Miocic is Croatian, but we got lots of other good fighters! What about Paulie Malignaggi, Chris Algiere and Butterbean?

And before boxing became an international sport, before black Americans started to properly participate, white Americans were actually the best boxers in the world!

Europe may have Klitschko, McGregor, Miocic, Marciano, Froch, Kessler, Calzaghe, Lomachenko, etc., but truly, the best white fighters are always from America!

(This was not meant as trolling, merely stating the obvious so someone hopefully can explain to me WHY white Americans are so bad at fighting. And don't give me that **** about "they don't box as much as black Americans", lol, Denmark is a tiny European country with barely 6 million people, and they have Kessler, who is better than any white American ever was).

Honestly, McGregor is a better boxer than any white American. He has already destroyed Malignaggi, if he also destroys Algieri, then McGregor has proven to be superior to any white American man.

You want the truth most Whites go to College or have Blue collar skilled occupations such as Mechanics, Electrician, Mill Wright Welder Plumber ETC. Go to a Auto shop, Plumbing out fit or an Electrical yard and see if you can spot any Black worker if you do it's a very small number.
