Good on Roy for hyping this fight.

4 gold medals worth of Boxing talent in the ring.
Super pumped.Comment

As for the stats Roy quoted, he's a bit off. Not quite 1k wins and slightly more loses, I think under 15Comment

Rigo is very clearly not "black". He would be listed Cuban, hispanic, or something like that.
I mean the US distinguishes Puerto Ricans so they damn sure wouldn't say Cuban = Black. Well a ********** might XDComment

We could on some medical software find White - Eastern European or White - Turkish for example. Ukrainian wouldn't be a default option because there's probably not many here.
However Rigo would be Black or Black - Caribbean depending on the options. We don't have PR or Cubans here really, more Jamaicans and Trini.
We also don't do African British etc here. Some do distinguish themselves as African, West Indian but many say the country they are from because African is a big ass continent and so is Europe.Comment

Folks are confusing ethnicity and national origin with race. Cubans and Hispanics, in general, can be white, black, indigenous, Caucasian, Asian, and they can be ******, Christian, ***ish and so on.Comment
