I think i have to agree with the Kelly Pavlik statement.They praised that white mofo like crazy when his boney azz knocked out Jermain.But ....that's because you don't see too many good White American boxers.Howere,i don't think they were being racist for praising him,because they've praised many Black fighters;they adored Sugar Ray,Ali,and many others!
