Why did Widler make this fight about race?

[Cobra Curry]

I don't think it was his idea initially, I just think the fight happening in February and some of those militant-like following, the African america presenters/journalist talking about it, made him go down that route. Because when you look at the costume that he was wearing nothing about it says anything to do with Black history month, I have asked that question and no one single soul has been able to explain what significant of the costume had in relations to BHM.

**** on. I've been asking the same question and got no answers.

It's the type of thing his 'fans' wanted to here.

Being in proud of your heritage when you're black scares people. Its okay for Tyson Fury to be the Gypsy King. Nobody says anything about that.
Race and nationality is prevalent in boxing and is a major driving force. People hate Al Haymon because he's black. When I read most of these posters bashing what Haymon has done thus I know its based on race. The man never speaks, and is thriving in a sport that most failed in. He brought boxing back to free tv. But a powerful black man scares the world. Seeing Wilder fall is the ultimate for a racist, because he's a prideful, powerful, imposing black man. The thing about Wilder is that he has to be careful because his success seems to have gotten to him because he is talking like he's a diety. He still only is a mere man.

90% of TV is white.... Why they needed BET.... Its a reason the word token black guy came about cuz movies had zero blacks in it.

You can say the same about white people, own 90% of the pie then complain when ********** demand their 10%. The fact you over here calling me people clowns and generalizing them is exactly why i hate these sneaky race baiting threads for guys like you to take the bait and start talking shyt.

Smh

So you just want everything given to you??? Free sht right?

Damn that sounds racist! Media tells me to hate the white man...

See, now here is something maybe some of you Wilder supporters don't want to hear.

Not all black people support Wilder. Not all black people appreciate a loudmouth ducker who avoided tough fights throughout his entire career. Not all black people support someone who says he wants to kill someone in the ring.

Not all non-black people are scared of a powerful black man. People all around the world revered Ali. People all around the world were fans of Mike Tyson. People all around the world support Anthony Joshua.

No, Wilder has portrayed himself as a very limited, niche kind of black man and a large number of people do not like him irrespective of race.

In business, they say, "Be aware of your brand". Wilder has created his brand which appeals to some but pushes the majority, irrespective of race, away.

Don't make this some sort of simplistic black vs white issue, it is not, despite what some would like to make it.

Wilder also listens to the pro-black boxing channels on youtube a lot in case you guys didn't know. They have poisoned his mind. When I see 2 boxers fight, I don't even think of race vs race, I am more interested in how a fight pans out than which race triumphs over the other. These pro-black channels are like the vocal minority, but it's a shame that they are pushing this agenda instead of focusing on boxing talk.

There’s probably something to that

Wilder is a very insecure guy and also very unintelligent. We know how insecure he is when he tries to get commentators fired. So when 99% of people thought he lost the first fight and the only people feeding him lies are these pro black boxing channels, then he starts buying into what they say and pandering to them by following what they do. Wilder is a follower. Fury plays him like a fiddle, by changing moods and Wilder follows. So I think he watches the only people that keep him deluded, such as these channels, then acts the same way.

Gypsy ‘race’?

The problem is, a lot of Americans still have this racial view of the world, 50 years behind the rest of the world

The quoted paragraph might sound good in the US, but the rest of the world looks at it and wonders why you guys are so fixated about skin colour.

Fury doesn’t see it in those strange American terms. Skin colour is irrelevant to him, like it is to the majority of the developed world sans the US. You guys also need to stop thinking it’s a general global thing - it’s just an American thing

Fury out slicked the black fighter. I bet Fury has the bigger *** here. I want to see a cawk comparison.

Fury does drugs and eats fried chicken, hes more black than wilder.
