    Now hating on a fighter because he's a different skin color that I will agree is racist.

    i disagree, if people are only picking fighters to cheer on because they have the shade of skin colour that they like then in my eyes that makes that person a racist. they dont have to be directly attacking other races.

      Yes this place is filled with racists

      Its full of Americans who support eastern euros like GGG, loma and kovalev way more than they support other Americans. They also spend their time hating on great American fighters like ward and mayweather. We all know their true agenda

            I don't consider myself a racist but I do only support white fighters just because I can relate.

              You ever think styles could play into that though? I supported Kovalev over Ward because Ward is a dirty fighter with a ****ty style like Hopkins. I'm against rooting for fighters due to racial or nationality. Certain styles I will always root against like Bhop, Ward, Porter, etc... that are dirty and ugly to watch.

              You also forgot to mention the crowd that only roots for the brothas...

                  I could understand it due to certain styles but it's telling when they always love the eastern euros and almost always support them more than they support other Americans. Most of the time those same people who hate mayweather, ward,etc don't support the charlos or wilder despite them have entertaining styles.

                  At least black people in this country actually support AMERICAN fighters. So you can't really complain about that

                    This is a touchy subject that a lot would avoid. Race does play a part in the way some people pick or support a fighter. Never thought it was true until recently on boxingscene, I sense certain poster only back certain fighters based on the colour of the boxers skin. I don’t know if it’s sad or not but for me I find it weird.
