If what I just looked up is correct, there hasn't been a championship bout between 2 white dudes since the late 1950s.


I mean, the Klitschkos defended/took various pieces of the heavyweight championship against white dudes. So, I doubt that's correct.

Wladimir defeated Axel Schultz, retaining the WBA Intercontinental. He also beat Francois Botha, retaining the WBO. He won the vacant WBA Intercontinental back from Argentine Fabio Boli. Also, his fights with Ibragimov, Chagaev, Pulev, among others, were all international/world championship fights, and so on.

The UFC event just demeans the White House because it’s tacky and appeals to the lowest common denominator, regardless of race…

I remember when Trump was elected, some posters applauded the return of “class” to the Presidency.. it was funny then, and it’s fricking hilarious now…

What about inaugural riots and boxing matches involving the president? Just because MMA is the current favorite contact sport doesn't mean it will be any more violent or debased than all kinds of other shite that has happened at the White House.

Al Sharpton is a very smart guy. He knows what he says is bullshite. But he's made a TON of money doing his thing.
