Top 10 best black middleweights

[Tito BHB]

No ones gona say it are they..

Well fwock it lets do it then i'll say it..

There is no point in this because history shows that 9 out of 10 greatest fighters are black ..

Its not theyr race that makes them great who knows what it is it might just be coincidental..

In fact by saying 10 best black middleweights your more then likely gona get about the same top ten anyway..

So whats the point

Number 2 & 3 of all time are white

I have 1 hagler 2 hopkins

Hagler
Monzon
Grebb

Meh.. Thats a solid top 3 but i dont rate the old time fighters as high as i should probably..

Im all about the new school

Again, I made a similar point in the "white Heavyweights thread" that Bilbo decided reduced the thread to being about race.

[Tito BHB]

Lol..

I just dont see the point..

Like someone said i never made it about race you did..

No i questioned motive..You made it about race..And its a bs topic

joe calzaghe

Yeah Joe Calzaghe; he has black hair-sort of. Interesting to see where all this leads to. I say I want to know the top 10 Mongolian boxers. Anyone??

[Tito BHB]

Calzaghe is a super middleweight

[LEGION]

Oops, I got caught up in the moment. Sad click for me .

It is a bit of a ridiculous thread, as in general black people are more suited to boxing, as they are to sprinting. This is related to a more dense composition of their muscle make up and I believe it also has something to do with a greater average density of fast twitch muscle fibres.
Conversely the muscle density is part of the reason that black people cannot swim as well, because they do not float as well!

By negating white people who are the genetic underdogs you are not really counting out many people.

Now I would like to know a list of the top ten black sprinters!!

[chrisbird13]

I know joe is a smw i was being facetious!

What he says... "I want a Top 10 best middleweights thread".

What he means... "I want a best middleweights thread without Lamotta".


If I were to respond to this seriously, I might put guys like Hagler, G-Man, Julian Jackson, and B-Hop on there. There have been a laundry list of great fighters that just kind of passed the division, James Toney, RJJ, Hearns, Leonard, etc.

But I think it would be a little risky putting any of the above #1 when... SRR SRR SRR fought like 14757389 fights at middleweight.

It did buddy. There have not been that many great white fighters in history so it's perfectly fair to rate them. Have you complained to the BBC because they have a top 10 British fighters chart? That's surely just as discriminating to non British fighters as a best white boxer thread is discriminating to blacks.

Race has NOTHING to do with these kinds of threads, what about top 10 greatest southpaws? Does that offend your sensabilities?

I reckon there are more White guys than black guys in the top 10 Midles of all time

Monzon
Cerdan
Mickey Walker
Harry Greb
Tony Zale
Stanley Ketchel
Jake Lamotta

All have a case to be top 10

[bzkfn]

Any top 10 middleweight thread would have to include Peter Manfredo. He was a machine at middle!

[The_One77]

but to sum up this thread, i feel political correctness has gone up to a point to where people are afraid to say anything about a person's race.
You can't call a black dude black, i mean wtf....apparently "it's too racially motivated"

Like the thread about the Top 10 best white heavyweights, i couldn't believe the responses from some of these posters. Goddamn, lighten up.
