So, Andre Ward's dad is/was White?

[EdWins]

Ward is a common surname in black people.

I didn't know that. Most black people I've gone to school with or worked with always had a "Johnson" or "Sullivan" or "Workman", "Smith", "Jones", etc. never seen a Ward before except for Andre...

Most have English, Irish, or Scottish names passed down from American slave owner families. Most are English names.

During slave and segregation times the Irish were considered the trash of society. Some still had ****** though. There are quite a few blacks with a surname starting with Mc. Like Darren McFadden, Oliver McCall, ect.

The racism here is unbelievable

Ts you do know Ward is not a fan of too many white folks.

Ward has gone on record saying he's been discriminated against by white ppl.

I think the ideal blend for a boxer is 1/4 Mexican (for tenacity), 1/8 Japanese (for toughness), 1/4 North Korean (for mysteriousness), 1/4 black (for upper body strength), 1/4 white (for well-roundedness), 1/8 Eskimo (for fighting in cold climates), & 1/4 Australian (to be able to train alongside Jeff Horn). If a boxer has this blend of genetics they are virtually unbeatable.

Sounds like Floyd Mayweather!

Dre doesn't even claim that "all important" white part. He knows everyone considers him a black man and he's cool with that.

I don't see many threads about people discrediting white fighters. Are there even any?

I swear when you said this my FB trending news feed showed news of an NFL player named TJ Ward, who is African American. I didn't even look for him.

He's not the only NFL player with that surname, another guy named Hines Ward, he's african american and Korean, with a black father that he got "Ward" from.

Mind you, this is only the NFL. I haven't bothered to look elsewhere.

Ah, starting to make sense now. Funny how people are always bashing Whites in boxing. Yet you have 4 1/2 Whites in the top 6 P4P.

The resemblance is overwhelming. They both look like a Bloodhound.

The resemblance in the face is identical. Great pic.

guess yall never heard of the supposed "one drop rule"?

If it's more negative to criticize a mixed race for "not even being Black" then the it no longer applies. Whatever is most helpful when somebody needs to assert their superiority.
