Myth? Uhhh... Floyd was one of the most conservative, slick boxers ever and he blew the doors off of everything anyone else ever did. He was literally named "money".

Exactly, but people will say that they only paid to watch Floyd lose and that Floyd doesn't have a real fan base. If that's the case, then why does he have tons of highlight videos on youtube? With millions of views at that, no one can watch him lose on a highlight video lol.

Wtf is a Black American style?

You named Wilder, Spence, Porter, Davis and Crawford who all have different styles and different skill levels.

The biggest sellers in the history of this sport were black. Tyson. Mayweather. Ali. Sugar Ray Leonard. Joe Louis. And a lot of others.

If you have the X factor, you sell simple as that. Out of all the black fighters today only Wilder and maybe Spence and Davis have it.

News to me I can think of many black fighters through the years that could put butts in the seats.Its over sensitivity where someone says something and all of a sudden you get a thread like this.Say something about GGG that’s positive and your a racist fan boy hating on Canelo.Same with Pac man your a mayweather hating racists.

What other demographics does this guy think are selling to think this warrants a thread?
