    How is he not black exactly?

    He only called out one side of it that is correct. But what he said was true, there are posters on this forum who hate HBO and call Jim Lampley a nazi, Max "KKK" Kellerman etc. They hate that television network ever since Pac became the face of HBO boxing that's what Dougie was talking about.

    He's not Black I don't know where you're getting this from I have never heard this until now from you.
    Who hates HBO? I love HBO and I'm still a subscriber the only guy I don't like was Merchant because he was an old drunk and was a hater hated RJJ, Pea Whitaker, PBF and Hopkins. Like I said before Dougie was biased in that article he didn't address both sides he said nothing about what I mentioned earlier in this thread.

    :huh I am not an anthropologist, but Dougie looks mixed to me with African ancestry and that's why I think he would be classified as black in America due to the one drop rule just like Andre Ward. I may be wrong though.

    Crawford is US american and american fight fans don't have many top tier guys left to support so they all bet the house on Crawford to make them proud.

    The whole sport of boxing are going crazy over him. They say he's number 6 P4P. He's being pushed to PPV against an unknown in Postol. He has everything handed to him on a plate!

    Ward and Mayweather were talking about racism in boxing still existing. Terence's case disproves that.

    Crawford has not fought anybody. Dulorme? Lundy? Hello? All of a sudden he's a P4P no.6, killer.

    Something is not right.

    If we're going solely by eye test, Vasyl Lomachenko is P4P no.1 even if Floyd were to return, roided to the eye***** as good as he was at 130.

    Crawford's resume is NOT as good as Golovkin's.

    Lemieux and Murray >>>>> everyone else on Crawford's resume. Add to the fact that he has looked dominant and has the highest KO % in Middleweight history.
    Moreover, Crawford has looked less impressive. He was in a war with a FAT AND TINY Gamboa who would have dropped Crawford if Crawford wasn't the biggest lightweight I've ever seen.

    Crawford also looked very unimpressive against Ricky Burns. It is then when I realised Crawford is no ATG. The ones with ATG potential from USA are are in the amateurs right now (regardless of how they perform in the Olympics). Other than that, the only ATG looking American currently in the pros now is Andre Ward.

    If boxing was purely about weight classes, you need to admit to me right now that Pacquiao is a Top 3 GOAT. Carlos Monzon is one of the Top 50 ATG's, Hagler is an ATG, they were career middleweights.
    Golovkin hasn't even had the chance to unify yet, and people are telling him to leave his weight class. :patsch

    Boxing is not just about weight classes and picking phoney contender belts against mediocre opposition.

    His best win is an undersized Gamboa.

    Whilst he's a two division champion his resume is thin and Postol I'd his first real test.

    He's as old as 28?! What on earth is his excuse? Was he busy becoming an ATG boxer, like Golovkin in amateur boxing? No!

    I don't want to hear ANYONE say racism exists in boxing.
    Awful Resume Pre-Postol Crawford PROVES this.

    It's amazing isn't it I referred to Ward as as much white as he is black and Pimp C quickly told me that he is black and in the USA but be referred to as such.

    Now as we can see Dougie certainly has some black in him, he looks as coloured as Ward yet Pimp C doesn't agree to him as being black?

    Weirdo this pimp C

    When did you realize GGG isn't an ATG? His resume is chalk full of C level fighters and he's 35 with 35 fights, he had a chacne to cement his legacy against Ward who's elite but ran like a scalded dog when called out to prove himself. The hypocrisy in your post is hilarious. You act as if GGG has fought and beaten legit comp. His resume for his age is pathetic at best not only that he's stayed in a dead division for his while career despite people saying that he knocks out heavyweights cold in sparring.:patsch Crawford if he retired today has had a better and more accomplished career than GGG has.

    When Ricky Burns is you're 2nd best win you know you have problems,but according to Pimp C his resume is better than Golovkin's.

    Dougie doesn't look Black like Ward does and can pass for something else other than Black. Dougie if he was wanted by the police wouldn't be classified as Black like Ward would be. I'm telling you like it's if you don't like it too bad. I'm a Black man in American I know what I'm talking about in this regard you don't know what you're talking about so you should shut the hell up about the topic since you have no first hand experience with it thanks you.
