        The Black American style of boxing is a bit of a myth. There are plenty of quality Black Fighters that don't run around the ring and are defense first fighters. Most of the guys on the list are not that type of fighter.

              Who the f#ck is saying that myth???? How long has that been a myth?

              Some of the biggest names in the game have been black Americans.

                That's funny. I thought it was you because anytime there is a new thread about the LDBC or black people in general it's typically you.

                  Black people? that's an oxymoron. Boxing has black boxers. It's a boxing website. How do you exclude ''black people?''

                    Lol this is just individual peoples excuses for avoiding fights look at the Freddie Roach example and look at the biggest selling fight of all time.

                    I wouldn't get upset by it no one believes them (probably including themselves).
