Race and boxing...

[Bonafide]

I see the racial **** from time to time and feel like giving my 2 cents but i aint racist so i just keep quiet. It's pretty pathetic if you ask me but expected in a way.

I think sometimes the poster really isn't being a racist he's just nuthugging in general.

Race & Boxing

Most real boxing fans don't care about race, nationality or religion.

Some of my past favourite boxers include Emile Griffith, Manuel Gonzalez,
Tony Canzoneri, Barney Ross etc. It doesn't matter what eace or religion they are.

When it comes to home town or National pride, it is hoped we could cheer our own without taunting others.

Why did you bump a 2 yr old topic

Race and boxing

If a topic is important, then there should be no discrimination because it may be old.
Consider the topic revived.

Why the **** do people get so racist with boxing here? ****, there is NO GENERAL STATEMENT that stands up. You cant say 'mexin boxers are *******" and **** like that...it doesn't apply.

And to those who do this, when a fighter of like background wins, what makes you feel special about it? You had nothing to do with it. being the specific race you are means NOTHING. This **** should be about the individual...not blanket race generalization and backing.

Do I back my white boxers because they're white? No. Cause it's ****ing ******. I feel no more affinity to Ricky Hatton than I do Margarito and ****ing Mayorga. there's bad mother****ers in every race...and there's ******* in every race.

Your race is not greater than any other race. mexican boxers are no better than puerto ricans who aren't better than the ukrainians who aren't better than african boxers. i mean, forever heads were talking about how white boxers suck, how there needs to be a great white hope (rediculous anyways), and now, white cats control the heavies.

****'s rediculous. Why do you feel tied to nationality of the boxer?

I used to post a lot on another board where I thought it was bad but this one takes it to a whole other level. Truthfully, I blame the moderators. No control over here. NONE.

To be fair the moderators have started banning people for not obeying the rules but they always seem to find ways to come back.

P4P_King who was banned for posting child **** had 5-6 accounts banned but he is still here.
