I agree to your point brotha [USER=1]Jay[/USER] they have their own style as well as champions, victories etc. and in the same vein they also give credit to black folk(specifically fba) in boxing as the source of those accomplishments and improvements but they never outright say it until it's convenient for them.As far as politics, to add to brotha [USER=124]Blackgravity[/USER] point, they bring the mejor la raza behavior to "buffer" themselves so to speak into boxing history in an attempt to erase the fba forefathers of boxing and pretend to be the ones that paved the way in the future and stay on code. i.e. look at how white supremacists put Tyson Fury on a pedestal and compare him to the all time greats who are fba.Anytime they get a "white champion" in sports they passive aggressively get anybody that's black to cosign their own champ or compare them to fba champions/warriors or who already paved the way.That behavior of accrediting their group for fight prowess is very common and is moreso an act of survival/manhood to distinguish themselves from those they deem competition and those who they know are the dominant group in terms of martial arts(which would be us).Tl:dr they'll be cool with us until we whoop their ass or we get the numbers. The irony is pretty much a reflection of what black society goes through today.
