Is he racist in the sense that he'll make racist remarks and has some prejudices, probably, most people are. Is he racist in the sense that he believes black people are subhumans and should be slaves, doubt it. Shitty thing to do but who the f knows I'm not in the dude's head...Also in another sport this might be a huge deal but in boxing we routinely root for less than savory characters..
    You don't root for Broner...

    Or any american fighter............of a certain hue.

    You're what is known in internet circles as a troll I think, and I guess you have succeeded in your job as you have elicited a response from me. Plenty of fighters with a certain "hue" that I have rooted for in the past and present, currently; Tim Bradley, Crawford, Errol Spence, just to name a few, as for the past to many to list. I don't care about a fighters race, but you go on believing that I'm racist I could give a shit less since you're clearly not the brightest and just out here to bait and not actually debate.
