For a black fighter to become an A-Side they have to legit be good with personality(AB) or great fighter (Ward and Floyd). For a Rican, Mexican or great white hype(even tho they aren't nun) they just got to be a half decent at anything for the most part because they have a built in large folllowing.

Black fighters have the harder path to the top plain and simple. Garcia is the top 147 draw based on what exactly? Besides his following.

Black fighters shouldn't get shytted on and made to wait by lesser talents just because they have less following than a B level Hispanic or White fighter.

I do plan on supporting more and traveling to some live cards in the future before @Newzz come in here saying Im not supporting the cause enough :comeon:.

Explain breh?
it's not a strong community since you don't know more than 99% of the people who belong in the group.

A family, a group of friends for example are real communities, since you know all the other members in it so you can identify with them better, know them better, nations are rather politically constructed communities where the common point is merely that you've got born in the same place as them.

I don't say that it has to be bad but it is politically constructed and quite illogical.

I kinda agree with the "imagined community" theory

:heh: I implore everyone to go to a live card if they can...gotta support these fighters, especially black ones, because if not they turn into Tevin Farmer's (seem to be really skilled, but bring no reward to the table, so they're avoided in their division and the media says nothing at all about it).:obama:



Nothing like seeing professional, high class hands thrown for your entertainment:banderas:


And I agree with your entire post. Black fighters have it definitely harder:wow:

Boxing is built upon that type of shyt to be real and life to be real. It's just stuff you got to deal with. Most white casual watchers of combat sports think Mcgregor got a chance to KO Floyd. They riding against Floyd basically because Floyd black and McGregor white IMO. Even tho McGregor isn't even an American. Most white people just want that uppity nikka to get his ass whoop.

Floyd even used it to his advantage that why he chose all the Hispanic boxers in his Money Mayweather days lol.

Most people just root for people who look like them I reckon

In shape Figgy at 140 whoops ABs ass :gladbron:


Bet you Canelo throws 160 WBC in the trash before he fights that Jermall Mando :krs:

Black Swift N Verdejo the future :banderas:


Team Choc runs The Coli #AsidesOnly :umad:
Figgy vs ab would be lit. But figgy lack of defense is gonna catch up to him in that fight.





If cokeboy works with Haymon, it will be to make canelo vs jacobs. The reason canelo won't fight charlo is the same reason they won't fight boo boo

Until he takes an L then you'll throw him in the bushes too :pachaha:

When Verdejo beats Flanagan and gets that WBO strap, don't come hopping back on the bandwagon :ufdup:
Nah breh. He #AboutBillions so I gotta stan him. It's like if danny had a lil bro that fought imma have to root for him by default
