    No he wasnt, he made himself look smooth, but it was mostly for show. He could be tagged often and never had a great defense. He plenty of heart, a granite chin and power though.

    Slick and Black has no borders.

    Slick however tends to favour the black community.

    wouldn't it be Slick and Black/white american? We all know all Black Americans are mixed, some many 50/50 and most at least around 25% white.

    How black, just darker skin? or African decent? and what percentage would be the least required to be considered black? I know of some that are 25% black and they don't actually look black, are they considered black?

    Makes sense what about the ones that are in the middle? the ones that are part Caucasian and black? are they simply both and can they be considered "slick black"? or would it be "slick part black"?
