    Someone makes this thread several times a year. I think wrestling is a much safer combat sport when it comes to avoiding brain injuries. A lot of white kids wrestle and that skill set translates to MMA which is why you see a lot of white MMA fighters.

    That's one of probably a dozen reasons.

      Loma, ok one guy thats all you got? Lets not forget, that cat lost to Salido --- SALIDO.

      Dude, you're the typical Britard. I love you lot love the game, but be honest with everyone and yourselves --- you're style is rubbish. The best you can do is B+.
      Lomas second professional fight which was a World title bout?. From when you say Booth and Rob suck the conversation has to come to a halt. You're trolling, whether you know it or not.

        Who cares if it was a title fight? He didn't earn it and Arum is just trying to cash in on Loma before he gets too old.

        You're a nationalist dweeb. Scram kid. McCracken and Booth are 2 bit bums. Its not trolling, learn what trolling means you si.

            Italians, ***s, Irish, etc used to dominate US boxing in the early days after migrating from the old country but it seems that as they became more financially established, they moved from the close-knit inner city street culture to more rural spreads and opportunities. Almost all real boxing gyms are in the inner city and most inner city white boys are there as bankers, tourists, students, etc.. and would rather sue boxing gyms than learn a trade there

              They go into wrestling or MMA instead?

              Just my guesses
              This, the closest boxing only gym is an hour and 15 minutes from me. I was lucky to find my Muay Thai coach, but even he has since moved away, that was a lot of fun though.

                Crossfit is some hard stuff! The gym right next to where my instructor trained did crossfit, and the workout level was highly intense

                  Popularity of the UFC. Boxing gyms used to be all over as it was seen as the true combat sport. Now MMA gyms are everywhere.

                  Whites that like to fight think it's the more effective fighting. A lot of Black's and Latino's are thinking that way too. You see a lot more in MMA now. Boxing is losing a lot of potentially good fighters to it.

                      White America isn't inquisitive about boxing. that's part as a result of the shortage of quality boxing gyms in community areas. With the UFC and therefore the ethics of boxing it's dwindling. As so much because the NBA worries the style of the sport has shifted from fundamentals to vigor. This seen within the lack of defense and sadly low penalty free throw share. One exacter of the difficulty that folks tend to forget is that the bodily damage of profession sports. To be knowledgeable contestant you have got to sacrifice your body. somebody WHO has different charitableness typically can depart this world skilled athletics. folks look into professional athletes and see Mayweather, Lebron, Kobe, or Peterson however, on the average careers solely last 3 years. i might not dig a hole to become a jock fighter.
