    You are talking about a small percentage of blacks who feel this way. That percentage is minute too.

    Isn't a small percentage a minute percentage? I don't get what you're saying.... it's redundant.


    Maybe it's a small percentage - but it's a sentiment that gets echoed over and over. You'll have a hard time denying that there's a positive connotation attached to blacks liking things they can relate to..... and conversely a negative connotation attached to whites likking things they can relate to.

    The americans are just like everyone else, they support their own, some of them a bit too hard, for us it's Brittards, for them is Ameritards, everyone has them.

    P.s Dirrell is over rated.

    And you did. I bet you thought you got out of it for a second there. :lol: :rofl :patsch

    Find me a post where you're "liking" a white fighter. Until then you're as quoted, a close-minded supporter of "brothas". :good

    Boxing isnt popular anymore. So to truly get support you have to be really special and have flare.

    White Americans have abandoned boxing. And white america controls the medi. Its why **** like tennis and golf gets more coverage.

    Blacks and mexicans still support. Especially mexicans.

    :lol:

    You still haven't refuted your close-mindedness towards liking only "brothas" as a boxing fan. As quoted... just a hint, it's not on this page. :yep

    Why would it bother me? You're calling posters whiteboys like you did in this very thread, and can't find a post where you're 'liking' a white fighter. There's even a poster in this thread who called you a dumb racist and you didn't even respond.

    I don't need to find other quotes, or keep digging. My job is done. :deal
