      uhhh there are more african american title hoders thant title holders of any other race...smh. keep up. really tho i dont even look at it as being an african american thing. im classified as being african american but i consider my self american above all else. but with that said, african american have been and continue to be the cornerstone of ameican boxing and american boxing is still the best in the world.

          You are clueless. There are far more non-black title holders, and for what its worth I agree with you that African Americans are probably the most skilled boxers.

            thats not my point. my point are americans have more titles than any other country and most of those titles are in the hands of african americans. so how are we "americans" not the best???

              I take this as they go after Mayweather and if that doesn't come off then they go for Mosley.

                Just to put this ******ity to rest (I actually counted) 7 african-american title holders (4 main bodies) and I stopped counting the Mexicans at 12, so I don't know how many there actually are

                and Im neither black, mexican, or do I care, I just think these race baiting debates dont help anyone

                  And easier to hit.

                    Not at all and not even basing how Pacquiao would fare off of last nights performance. Of Mayweather's fights dating back to '05, he hasn't moved around the ring much with the exception of the Baldomir fight. Baldomir outweighed Mayweather heavily so Mayweather was forced to stick and move and really utilize the ring. Similarly, Pacquiao had to do the same against Margarito.

                    Margarito is a dumb fighter, Pacquiao was extremely predictable in the fight. Of course from an outsiders perspective, you could tell when each fighter was going to go on the offensive and then let off the pedal. Making the adjustment in the ring either during the round or in between is a much different story. Both are pretty set in their ways, so there's not much you can teach them to alter who they are at this point. Margarito was content with taking 2, or in this case 5, to get off a flurry of his own and then cover up.

                    Should Pacquiao not lie and actually agree to the testing, I could see Mayweather-Pacquiao end up like Mayweather-Gatti and Mayweather will score the stoppage between six and eight. I only state this because no matter what Roach were to work on in the gym now with Pacquiao, it's too late and the changes would have to be drastic. Barring drug testing, there are simple mechanics that distance the two fighters. Heart is awesome and everything, but this isn't Rudy, it's lives that are on the line and Mayweather is as cerebral as it gets.

                    Like I stated before, should the random testing be agreed to, it makes this fight uneventful and mundane for the legions of Pacquiao fanatics.

                      I think Bradley would be a better fight than Mosley at least. Mosley is so shot it's not even funny.
