No, I don’t choose my favorite fighters by race. But, I don’t see anything wrong with fans who engage in a little ethnic pride, it is perfectly normal. British, Mexican, PI, Polish, Puerto Rican, or whatever, should be able to cheer on their countrymen without being labeled racists or bigots. 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.
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
