Why do Americans never support their own in boxing?

    ****in lyer. uve never heard me say that. u just assume that because of my "slick black" talk. Pavlik was actually one of my favorites.

    cant wait till Ward woops your hero.

    :patsch Bootay fans.

    some of the post talking about it not being mainstream are missing the point.

    When it comes to Americans they seem to root for their ethnicity rather than country.

    For example:

    Mexican-Americans always root for Mexicans
    Irish-Americans always root for the Irish
    Polish-Americans always root for the Polish

    Not all of us grew up sheltered in the burbs to be instilled with hate and suspicion.

    Ha!

    The fighters that are the most protected in the US are black.

    Think back to how Jermain Taylor was completely protected!

    Or how Ward was the ONLY one in the SuperSix to fight only at home and be super protected.

    I notice that in america alot of blacks act stunned when whites like things that whites can relate to. I think it's the entitlement mentality "you should like what I do!!".

    Like when the rap group Public Enemy complained that whites listen to the Beastie Boys (despite the fact that whites were probably also the ones buy the bulk of Public Enemy's albums) - it's just never enough.

    If a black likes something they can relate to all Americans are supposed to feel supreme joy.
    If a white likes something they can relate to.... when then that's just ethno-nationalism; a terrible commentary on how bigoted whites actually are.


    Thankfully, not all blacks feel this way.

    LOL!!!
    Are you seriously saying that people who grow up in the ghetto (if that terms even fitting)... or inner city areas aren't also instilled "with hate and suspicion"?.

    I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you weren't saying that. Because if you were intending that - that's laughable.
