    I am colourblind.

    It makes me completely objective when I’m watching boxing but god help everyone at red lights.

        Was brave until he made millions. How much did he make for the Pac fight?

          Hell no. I see skill and willpower to overcome anything with a pair of fist and balls

So long as you don’t hate a fighter because of their race or ethnicity.
            You answered that perfectly.On to the next thread.

                  i always root for blacks against mexicans. black vs white is 50/50 depending on which fighter i think has better morals.
                  always root for anyone vs mexicans basically, usually because they are nationalistic and racist af and get away with it.

                    Did Wilder treat you guys like family? Just asking

                      I dont view boxing at all from any racial standpoint ever . I've had all sorts of favorite fighters that I've followed for years all from differnt races and backgrounds . For me it has nothing to do with the sport . HOWEVER boxing has had a racial undertone since its gloved beginnings in the late 1800s and before . I think its ****ed and I dont agree with it whatsoever but it has been present in the sport for 130 plus years unfortunately , so its nothing new. I think its totally acceptable to cheer on your countryman tho . Nationality is totally fine imo
