I think as a self confessed SJW softy lefty libtard or whatever people call it, then I have be been a bit guilty of assuming most racism comes from the white majority against a black minority. While I still think that is the case, it is surprisingly, not so endemic in boxing, for many reasons.
You though seem so sure of it being present in others that you seem to have rather unwittingly revealed your own hand. I hope I am wrong, but I have not sensed people's love of Loma having anything to do with him being white, and nor has anyone here attacked other fighters in the same weight class based on the colour of their skin.
Exsmples?
Thought not.
I’ve gotta be fair , I don’t think Ronnie Baby is a racist as in a Black / White thing. But I do think he has issues with Russian fighters especially.
Don’t get me wrong, he’s also been very disparaging about British fighters as well , Black and white if memory serves me right.
Whether that’s racist or tubthumping or just plain American arrogance, well people can make their own minds up.
