It is rare to see two White American boxers facing each other haha.

True. There is one every once in a while that wants to make noise...Plant is a good fighter though, should beat Lee but Benavidez or Zurdo Ramirez would destroy both.

I’m happy to see two white American boxers at the top level like this. It’s good for the sport in the USA. The Italians were really the last white American group to leave the sport but they still have a small presence. We need to bring back the polish, the Irish, the ***s, and the just plain white guys like plant. And furthermore it’s good to see two totally different types of white guys like these two who couldn’t be more separated and different socially.....one from the bottom of the American social order and the other literally from the top....I feel like I’m watching The Outsiders

It´s good for the sport I agree so more White people watch boxing .Plant is good Lee is OK at best. White Americans are simply not mentally tough for boxing and ***s are not White, in that case light-skinned hispanics or Middle Easterns are White. Julio Cesar Chavez is whiter than Malignaggi yet the latter is considered White cause he´s Italian ( except for the KKK memebers, Italians are out of the question ). Plant and Lee are from different social environemnts that is sad, that shows the inequalities of the USA.

Greg Haugen vs Vinny Pazienza

Pazienza not White. Italian. Whites are of Northern European descend and goes beyond skin tone.
