He is black, American and flashy. Thats why they like him. Who else do they have to cheer about?
Just like Black Americans liking Obama without knowing what any of his policys are.

Dawson is flashy? Maybe in his fighting, but his personality isn't flashy at all. Thats bullshit, why wouldn't they hype Andre Berto then? Andre Ward? Dirrell? The Peterson brothers? There are plenty of up and coming black fighters from the states. All the guys I mentioned are guys for them to cheer about, and there are plenty more. Also black amercians not knowing Obama's policies is a horrible comparison. These two are as knowledgable about boxing as anyone. They both have been among the finest pure boxers the sport has ever seen, they know the sport, but especially when a guy can truly box. Furthermore, I can see Roy sponsoring a guy to a certain extent, but when Roy, a guy who thinks of himself as highly as I've seen anyone, says that this guy reminds him of his younger self, that IMO shows that Roy truly believes in this guy's skills. Roy used to say that Mayweather was good, but he was no Roy Jones. Why all the sudden would give this guy so much credibility when there is a large crop of skilled "black, flashy, american" fighters coming up in the near future.
Dawson has great potential and is on his way to being one of the p4p best. But beating Tarver doesn't all of a sudden make him one of the elites in the sport...no matter what Roy and Floyd say.
Yeah, Jones and Mayweather haven't got a clue about what goes on inside the ring, it's skin color they are worried aboutFuck off, Andre Berto is much flashier then Dawson why wouldn't they go for him.
Just saw Taeth's post, he is 100% right, what a terrible post that was even by your putrid standards.
Why would Jones and Mayweather even go for dawson? by the way my father is black so i am of mixed race. If you think there is anything there racist you is stupid, hence my screen name "Darkus" or should i change that incase its seen as offencive?
People tend to gel with people they are like it nature.
Get the fuk outta here with the neg rep, people are far to tetchy now days.
What? you don't think people can be racist to their own race? Hitler was half jewish
And there's never been a black person who was racist against his own...
That was the shittiest of shitty comparisons. If that was how Roy felt then why would he be having a love fest with Joe Calzaghe right now? Roy's more of a trash-talker than anything else.
And Floyd disses EVERYONE. Why all of a sudden would he give someone credit whom he didn't feel deserved it.
And who the hell knew you were black because you have 'darkus' in your name? So all black people are dark now?
Oops
WTF does techy mean? I don't think people on here are touchy with anything either than dissing Pavlik and racism. ONe is acceptable the other wasn't until B-Hop owned him. Also why are you letting us get under your skin this much, just brush it off, and move along. This is definitely not worth losing a spot on the only forum with this magnitude of knowlegable boxing fans.
Then this should be your last post. That's very gay of you to whine about neg repping and then you neg rep. Never did I suggest you hated your father (or yourself for that matter) I simply pointed out a FACT. There are black people who are racist against their own. You pointed to your blackness as evidence of not being racist against black people when that is essentially meaningless. Never did I suggest you yourself are racist, you took that leap all on your own.
I didn't give you negative rep simply because I was giving you somewhat of a benefit of the doubt while still challenging you on your statement. You took a flying leap from what 2 boxers thought of another boxer to people's voting habits and your statement was wrought with RACIST BULLSHIT (I'm saying it now). I don't know if you hate your father and don't care, but guess what? Plenty of people do, so to respond with that made 0 sense, but I've begun to suspect that may be typical with you. Eat a dick and fall off the face of the Earth.
