Does Pac get credit for beating a top black fighter?

Well he was not an American

 

Now that's not take anyhting away from Pac. Pac is a great fighter, but I think he's the second best fighter next to Mayweather.

 

The issue is clearly colour, because those four guys do not share a similar style at all. PBF is completely different from Mosley who is completely different from Bradley, etc. Therefore, the issue is colour and colour alone. You ought to be ashamed of yourself for this, I know you aren't, but you really, really should. It's beyond ludicrous.

 

deal

 

No, you misunderstand. Pimp C and others have recently decided that there is an actual boxing style called "Slick Black", and Pacquiao is terrified of that style. Though I think the only things you need to qualify as "Slick Black" are black skin and an American passport, because some of the fighters mentioned whenever this lamentable theory is brought up have completely different boxing styles. Look back at the last page - he mentions Mayweather and Mosley. Two guys who fight totally differently. It's about race pure and simple, and it's so idiotic that it's actually quite amusing. These small-brained people....

 

He's not "black" persay he's just African. The correct definition of an African-American is someone who is from Africa and moved to America and stayed for a few years. Blacks have been in US for hundreds of years so Clottey isn't "black" unless you're talking about his skin tone.

 

i dont see what beating a top black boxer would do, when are people gonna learn that race has nothing to do with a fighters success?? my god, 2010 and were STILL talking about this ****.

 

:good

 

i guess lucian bute and kevin mitchell have been hanging around too may african americans:roll:

 

Nothing to do with black fighters - he does not fight slick boxers who are trained in the American style - yeah most of them happen to be black but it is a style thing not a race thing.

 

I dont give him credit for beating a top black fighter for beating clottey. Why because i have always feeled that pac would give any fighter regardless to race problems. i dont get into the whole "scared of black fighters crap"

Plus i have never viewed clottey as a top elite fighter or top black fighter because he has proven time and time again that he will fail in every major fight. The way that he fails tells me that his boxing IQ isnt all that. ok if you have a plan and it dont work, change it up. Pac had a plan on how to hit clottey, it didnt work, he changed it up.

Clottey also needs a corner, a killer instinct, and while i cant beat either in boxing, If i had to for that type of money, i would have tried my best. Atruly elite fighter wouldnt have did what clottey did which shows that he is not a top fighter, just ok. Not ready for the big leagues. Dont bring up cotto or margocheato because I always have felt that cotto was overrated and cant stand to watch him box. if you can honestly say that clottey did better than pacs last few opponents then you must thing kevin johnson is the **** for what he did against vit klit.

Great job Pacman!!

 

Who cares what color he is. It wouldn't have mattered what color he was last night. He fought scared in the biggest fight of his life and to Pac credit he took advantage of it. So yes I give Pac credit for the victory like all fighters should get when they win.

 

spot-on. no more further to add to these.

 

Good point guys I can't believe people still argue about this.
