Non-Hispanic white's make up around 65% of 300 million people.Recently, Cletus Seldin got a spot on Danny Jacobs HBO undercard, although unbeaten with a pretty record, it was clear he was very limited, yet HBO requested he open their next show (Saunders-Lemieux) where, expectedly, he was totally exposed. Did he get that slot because he's white?Pavlik, in his pomp, once said he was underrated in America by fans/media because he's white, that even in gyms, he was looked at as the goofy white guy, until they saw him fight of course.
Caleb Plant is a good white fighter and stepping up against Porky Medina soon. I like Plant as he’s slick n has the best feints in the game right now imo. Hot girlfriend too in Jordan Hardy, the host of PBC.
Like to see Caleb develop a mean streak and press his leads, top notch skills to build on though.Fair to say Morrison was much more 'great white hype' than all 4 in thread title? Only one I'd come close to thinking a 'club fighter-over achiever' may be Paz. Rest were well rounded. speaking of Paz apparently he went ballistic and beat the ever loving crap out of some guy on New Years http://wpri.com/2018/01/03/wanted-fo...ns-himself-in/
#Metoo and I think Plant will against Medina, who really brings it. Paz had real talent and world class heart. Legendary heart. Much better than an overachieving club fighter I feel.Morrison was very good in his prime and hit extremely hard with that left hook. Razor and Foreman are quality wins. Better than anyone Wilder has defeated n better than everyone Joshua has beaten save Klitschko.Saw that about Paz beating up his friend for stealing from him. He’s a fiery guy lol
