    I'm pretty sure it was a lighthearted comment on the size of Filipinos in general. I wouldn't take it too literally.

      It seems to me that it was a comment on the size of Brits and Canadians as well. Lighthearted, it may have been.

        I think while over time Blacks have developed physical attributes that are condicive to boxing success, Boxing is such a diverse and complex sport that any physical advantages can be nullified by sound strategy.

          If he's white and said that, I'd cut his nuts off and force his mother to eat them while I anally ****d her. And that's being too nice.

          If he's black then he's just being an arrogant ****.
          what kind of revolting reply is that??

            That is absolutely unproven.

                How is that a fact?

                In what way is the skin weaker?

                In a sun-burning way?

                I doesn't play a role in the ring either way.

                It all depends on the boxer, Calzaghe always come with a fresh face after a fight.

                So does Floyd.

                  I disagree about poverty making good fighters. If that were the case, we would see more fighters from the ****** in mma.

                    Are you saying that blacks don't have thicker and tighter skin than whites? I know I have read it somewhere that blacks have tougher skin, but it was a long time ago, besides, if blacks don't have stronger skin, how come whites get cut much more often in fights than blacks? You can't deny that.

                      The cuts usually happen due to a structure of your skull and facial bones rather then weak skin.

                      For example, I have high chick bones which resulted in many cuts when I boxed, notice though, I don't have one cut on my eyebrow area or forehead. Is my skin any tougher on my eyebrow/forehead rather then on my chickbone area?
                      Absolutely not, this all comes from my 'sharp" facial structre.
