    It really isn't though, nor should it be.

    People like that dont just hold back the sport, they hold back society.

    The fighters I root for, their color, creed, and origin are irrelevant to me. That's the example to follow, not your divisive and ignorant insistence to make it about appearance or complexion.

      First off, nowhere in my post did i say or insinuate thats how i conduct myself. I made an observation about society and the human condition. You want it one way, but it's the other way. I agree that people should look past skin color and appearances but that ain't how the world works.

        Of course he is going to rematch at 34 , where is he going to that type of money being a challenger . Writer is correct only the outcome will be worse with 6 more months of Kronk training and all of DW bs excuses. Fury gives him a beating for his shield aka stretcher

          I don’t think that’s the case anymore for fury.. wilder landed many right hands to fury in the course of the two fights... and fury kept on getting up in the first fight.. and unfazed by it in the second one..

          Mentally and physically fury knows he can take it and in many ways nullify it. Wilder knows too that his right hand was handled.. and that was difficult to swallow hence the ****** excuses.
