Bernard Hopkins: Black fighters, we are built differently

I also heard black fighters have darker skin than whites. It's mind bottling! Whats next B-Hop discovers Mexicans are built different than whites?

Boxing is not a team sport or a other group anyone can think of. It is an individual sport and about the individuals abilities and skills.

I agree with Bhop a bit, there are a lot more athletic blacks than other race. It is likely that they are built different. Maybe sports suites their quality. I grew up knowing more Blacks that played and where good at sports than any other race. I also think it does have a lot to do with environment and development. For example: I live inn South Seattle where there are less whites but more Blacks who are more into sports and are better athletes than the Blacks in North Seattle where there are more Whites and the Blacks there are not as into sports and not as good athletes.

I think basketball and football are the two main sport Blacks are good at. Those two sports happen to be very popular and it suites there size and skills more so than other race. If other sports such as Hockey, Soccer or MMA where more popular then we would likely not look at Black Americans as athletic race.
