Is Wilder trying to alienate his white fans

I'm British so find it weird all this black and white and Mexican segregation stuff. There's racism everywhere but Americans seem to want to be all racist against each other. Strange place.Wilder is American and I have picked him to win. He has many white fans from America who support him. Yet he seems to repeat the refrain about race and being a black champion, which is okay I guess, but I almost get the impression that he does not care about his white American support, as he often seems to make out the white man as the enemy.

LOL. I know it's not, it's got its fair share of racists. it's a hell of alot better than america though. Even the whites in America separate themselves, polaks, Irish Americans, Italian Americans and so on.
Maybe that's why even though you got 250 million homes to tap in to to sell your ppv, s they do less numbers than the British ppv fighters.
To me Crawford and plant are American. To Americans Crawford is black and plant is white. They like to segregate themselves.Comment

I don't think celebrating your heritage is separatism. If you're Italian American than that's what you are and that's fine. It's a problem when you use your heritage as justification to bash others outside your community.LOL.

The British market is a lot smaller than the US, America has lot more going on. Casual British boxing fans overlap with football, they bring that same mentality towards supporting their own, that shows up in the PPV numbers imo. I mean how many fans turned up for Wilder last time compared to Fury, the foreigner.
There's definitely a racial hierarchy in place that lends itself to institutional, economic and self-segregation. The UK isn't that much differentComment

More inbreeding leads to a more common ancestral heritageI don't think celebrating your heritage is separatism. If you're Italian American than that's what you are and that's fine. It's a problem when you use your heritage as justification to bash others outside your community.

Racism is very strong in America especially among the black community.
They teach racist ideology in schools and colleges.
Wilder's racist views are just a product of his environment.Comment
