This is kind of not politically correct, but lets face it, black people, in general, are better athletes.

As more and more people get interested in MMA, you're bound to see more black fighters get into it. Will they dominate it like boxing?

Think about boxing in it's early days, mostly all white guys. But after black guys started getting into it, they completely dominated the sport. IMO, the same thing will happen to the UFC. You are going to start seeing some insanely athletic, strong, fast, and talented black UFC fighters in the future.


EDIT: Please don't be lame and call me a racist for bring this up. I'm not racist, I'm just being honest.

heres whats gonna happen, the UFC roster will have a few more black fighters on it, and the mma world will continue on as normal.

No offense to you or anything, but I dont care if the UFC brings in black fighters, white fighters, purple fighters or yellow fighters, if they can fight, they can fight. Thats all I (and the majority of mma fans) care about.

I don't have a problem with it at all, that's not what I'm saying. Actually, black athletes are usually more fun to watch because of the crazy ass shit they can pull off due to their athletic ability. I'm simply wondering if it will happen or not.

The best will come in the UFC.

There already black fighters and have been since started. Remember PAt Smith??

There are plenty of black fighters now. 2 of them just lost on Wensday night to white guys.What does that mean?? Nothing is what.

Being Black does not make you a better athlete. :confused03:

Lots of blacks are being introduced now,dosent matter really. Your a good fighter or your not.


It comes down to the person and their work ethic.


If the UFC stood for United Federation Chess would you be saying Asians will be coming over to take all the titles?

i'm calling for a ban becuz altho you try and make it sound not racist, it is.

saying black people are better athletes is racist and unjustified...american sports are dominated by people of any race.
Wow.
So, by your logic, if I were to say:

"Black women are better looking."


Then that makes me a racist too, right?

Not this argument again…

Name a top black downhill or cross-country skier.
Name a top black cyclist, not one has ever ridden the Giro d’ Italia, Tour de France or Vuelta a’ Espana let alone won.
Name a top black Olympian swimmer (remember “dawg”, over 70% of the earth is covered by water)????
Name a top black F1 driver (or any legitimate driver for that matter).
Name a top black gymnast???
African rugby champions?
Name a top black triathlete?
Name a top black motocross racer?
Name a top black skateboarder?
Name a top black snowboarder?
Name the last black winner of the “world’s strongest man” competition???
Name a black Olympic speed skating champion (OK, we had our 1st EVER last year).
Name the last soccer team from an African nation to win the world cup???
Name a top black diver (3 meter or spring board)???
Name a Stanley cup winning hockey team made up of more than one black player?
Name the last winner of the Americas cup with a black crew?
Name the last black crew (rowing) champion???
Extreme sports, any major black stars?
Water Polo, not any black stars here.
Wrestling, some blacks but they hardly dominate.
Volleyball? Not so much.

Blacks dominate track and field, basketball and football but they don’t completely dominate, some of the biggest stars and record holders are still Caucasians.

But most of those sports you just named are kind of lame to be honest. I'm talking about big time time sports here.

Boxing
Football
Basketball
Baseball (actually, black superstars are in decline in baseball)
UFC (not really "big time" yet, but getting there fast)

OK, I get it.
So by saying blacks are better athletes, I'm actually being racists towards whites, not blacks. So I guess I'm a self hating white person. NiCE.

When you generalize a whole race as being the best at something it can be seen as racist.

Hitler said whites where the master race and the smartest and most evolved. When Joe Louis lost to Frank Hitler used it as propaganda to fuel his argument.

When you say blacks are the best athletes, its simply not true. No more than whites are the master race. You cant back up your facts either.

Also when you do where would you place Jews or Asians on the Athletes list?

There are more Samoans playing pro sports for the percentage of their porpulation than blacks.

I'd categorize Jews and Asians as the smart ones =P

At last someone who talks sense on this matter. Also you could make the same statement that slavic people like russians are better athletes but that wouldn't be correct either. It's just the Russian way to train a lot. training > race biology crap.

Lame? Because you have never dome them or because they are not popular on American TV? I doubt you have ever dome much traveling, no one watches our sports outside of the USA (ok some baseball and basketball but only in a few countries).

I played football in high school (outside LB) and I can honestly say Water Polo was WAY harder (but I doubt you ever played, too short and poor cardio)???

I raced downhill skiing and was sponsored from 13-15 and at 16 made the US Jr Olympic team (Squaw Valley CA) and TRUST me the training for alpine skiing is like MMA, TONS of strength training and TONS of cardio.

Try standing on the top of a car for two minutes going 80 mph taking high-speed turns and going off blind jumps.

I’ve raced road bikes and done triathlons, both are physically harder than football or basketball and forget about baseball, most of the stars are fat slobs.

Your criteria for “big time” sports = fat American couch potatoes watching said sport on TV. By your criteria golf and fishing are more “big time” sports than say marathons or power lifting.

You must be in shitty physical condition.
