    Lol i figured most of you would type something stupid. I cant believe nobody called me a racist yet. You can make a thread about your favorite puerto rican or mexican fighter but if you say a black one people get offended

    actually surely Mexicans and Puerto Ricans are Latinos and not Caucasians.

    is your mother white, Chris?

    I can see where you are coming from to some extent.

    Ranking fighters acording to how well they did within their given race is distasefull.

    At the same time, the true boxing fans will have cherished favourites from all sorts of races and nationalities and they will take pride in the acomplishments of those fighters.

    I don't believe nationality and race to be the same thing to be honest.

    Who has the best achievements from one country or Nation yeah, but an actual skin tone???????

    Doesn't sit well with me to be honest.

    You're absolultey right.

    "Best fighter from Wales, Mexico or Tunisia" is completely different form "best black fighter".
