    Now dont get me wrong, im not racist, Sterotypical or anything like that, but i cant help but notice Johnny always picks the black guy, Shallow of me to notice it i know, but i was wondering what your opinions where,

    Just some examples

    Picked Degale over groves and seemed to be all over his nuts during the buildup

    Picked Hopkins as his favourite international fighter

    Picked Khan as his Favourite domestic fighter (not black but still)

    Was all over Hayes nuts, saying he would win by Knockout

    Believes Floyd Beats Pacquiao,

    Was all over tysons nuts saying he saved his life somehow?

    Maybe you are right but your Khan point is hilarious "not black but still".

    No his icing on the cake tonight was, "What s your highlight of the year Johnny"? "Kell Brook de-throning Lovermore Ndou" :happy

    I've heard that charge before but I can't say any of the examples you gave are that compelling as evidence. Most people thought Degale would beat Groves, Hopkins is an ATG, Kahn is Asian......;O)

    Ok, what im probably trying to say is why does he never pick the white guy? And yeah that bit about Kell dethroning N'dou as the highlight of his year was pretty hilarious.

    also if you go back before the Berto - ortiz matchup he picked Berto, definately something up with this guy imo.

    :rofl Loved that.

    Gotta say I thought this week's Ringside Season Review was pathetic. Adam Smith jizzing over Britain having 4 out of the 80+ current "world" champions was hilarious though.

    Bob Mee: "Ricky Burns with his 3 title defences is looking like a formidable champion and it might be hard to stop him now"

    Adam Smith: "International fighter of the season.. Victor Ortiz"

    Only Jim Watt talked sense throughout.

    BEFORE the fight Berto as the clear favorite and Ortiz was seen as a quitter with no heart who was moving up in weight.

    C'mon fella!!!:D

    I actually agree he tends to favor black people but the examples you gave are laughable.
