      so cause dontae doesn't talk about him means what exactly? There isn't much to talk about when he keeps getting hurt and put on the sideline

        Why do grown men race bait? Why would you be concerned about what black people do? Instead of having a black friend, have 2. I just don't get it. It's kind of sick....

          So, you Lina and GGG fans don't race bait?

            He didn't clearly do anything. Some of the judges had Garcia and Porter winning because Thurman got on his bike and started backpedaling in the later rounds. It's frustrating because Thurman is obviously a very talented fighter but lately he's started trying to emulate Floyd but he just ends up fighting like Lara, losing winnable rounds in the process.

            Also like I said, the guy just isn't active. When was his last fight? March? He should be fighting three times a year at his age.

                Why are you always on about the Black boxing community?

                Can you tell me what metrics you use to reach your conclusions? Analytics?

                  He ran around avoiding confrontation in the late rounds against Swift...

                  If those 2 didn't trash talk like they did with staredowns and shoving..ok

                  But they did... Thurman did the ****** run around the ring.. and it simply pissed me off.

                    Because he doesnt really «act black». Very unique guy doesnt fit into any box

                    Also Spence is more exciting
