Comments Thread For: Bernard Hopkins: Black Fighters, We Are Built Differently

[Steak]

I'm pretending I won a debate? No, there's no "winning" this debate and unlike some of the dumb racist comments I read on here, I didn't view your posts the same way. You seemed to have a genuine interest in the knowledge and genuine ideas so I simply pointed out to you where you could find something to support what I'm saying. If you're not interested in researching that but would rather just "debate" me, cool.

listen.

There is never any real winner on an online debate, because no one actually changes their mind. also its on the internet where you are a loser because you wasted your time and theres no such thing as an online 'victory'

but you seem to go out of your way to not attempt to back up your statements, which I am more than willing to listen to.
all Im asking is simply to at least attempt to try to paraphrase what facts point to your point of view being correct. Im not asking you to write a book or even a paragraph. simply point to the direct, fact based reasons you are behind your point of view.

Their is a world outside of the US. The bulk of your people live in Africa. Africans without the help of whites and left to themselves, still live in the stone ages. Its the not the worlds fault you are yet to build a liveable country for yourselves. Only african americans have the success in sports, not black. Due to the reasons stated already in this thread. Even then they are not really in top spots over anybody. Besides maybe basketball.

Best in these individual sports who have transcended into international fame..

Soccer........Pele
Boxing.........Ali
Basketball.......Jordan
Football...........take your pick (not an internaional sport)
Golf..........Tiger
Track and Field.........take your pick
Baseball.........take your pick (after blacks were allowed to compete)

Now name me a white guy who is considered better in those sports.

I think Jack Nichalson is considered the GOAT @ golfing. Tigers career isn't over yet though, so he could surpass Nichalson. I don't know s*** about soccer or track and field haha.

This is Frankie Chaos first post.

Lot of haters on here. But what Hopkins said isn't shocking. Isn't this common knowledge? All Frank Chao knows, is he'll kick all your asses in chess, and ping pong. Mofos

It's so much ****** **** posted in this thread I don't know where to start.

1. There is a reason why qb position is dominated by whites.
2. No great tennis players? Arthur Ashe, the William sisters?
3. Baseball? Ever heard of Jackie Robinson, Hank Aaron?
4. Wresting is dominated by whites because it's a sport that in the inner city. The average inner city youth plays b ball or football(which also 1 of the reasons why there are no heavyweights)

I'll leave the rest of the **** alone. Last time I spoke my mind I got banned.

I've read too much to even begin to show you how I back up my statements. Research begets more research so I pointed you in the right direction so you could draw your own conclusion. Clearly you want me to provide some sort of link? I don't know. I minored in African history, lived in Africa for seven years, have been to Egypt twice, and have sat with the court storytellers of the Asantehene of the Ashanti tribe, who can trace their history as far back as Yemen. Asking me to backup my statement will surely put you to sleep but if you truly want to discuss, pm me and we can go back and forth until the cows come home. Anyway, Chiekh Anta Diop used linguistics and dental records to prove his thesis, as well as migration and the obvious, to put it mildly. So put his name in the search box and find one of his books to read. Here is a good article from the American Journal of Physical Anthropology: . That said, I suggest you begin with Chiekh Anta Diop.

Lulz at all the sensitivity.

Are you really taking it seriously when someone talks about an entire race? There are some goofy ass mofos and some ripped as mofos of every race. There are plenty fat ass black dudes, just like other races and I think black dudes on average are more athletic than white dudes, but then again there's a lot less white families in the us that stress athletics from such a young age.

I don't get sensitive cuz I can hang in any sport. If there's one I can't, oh well.

I'm sure whites can find something they're "built differently for and the can hang their hats on that.

[IMDAZED]

I'd also add that every eye-witness account we have of the ancient Egyptians describe them as Black. And even more specifically.

how come the best quarterbacks in football are white?

in the history of the NFL there has only one black qb to win a superbowl

doug williams for the redskins

can anyone answer me that?


and no im not racist

i just want bhop to answer that question.

also there have been black tennis players, none were able to be even great

let alone dominate

the best pitchers and hitters in baseball have been white as well.

NFL teams are still owned by whites and until a few years ago white owners didn't believe that blacks were smart enough to be quarterbacks (that overt racism thing). Think about it, how many blacks were playing QB when Williams was?

You must not have heard of Arthur Ashe.

There aren't too many black pitchers in baseball are there? And I beg to differ that whites are the better hitters.

Ah. The so-called racism debate is welcomed back affectionately like a long lost friend by the good folks of NSB.

Once again, Good old Bernie (henceforth known as the Oracle of Wisdom and Learning - or just OWL, if you prefer) casting down more pearls of wisdom and enlightenment from his lofty throne atop the mountain of all known knowledge and truth....

Black swimmers? White sprinters? Is it genetics or sociogenetics? Does the OWL know what he's talking about? Do we care whether he knows, or do we just love him for playfully stirring things up a little? Will America's crippling guilt over post-slavery apartheid ever end? Should we all just love each other and embrace? You know the answer people.
