Is/Did anyone watch the Mayweather-Hatton fight in an interracial setting?
I ask this because I’ve found something in my time…nothing will point out how polarizing race still is in this country like a fight.  Let a fight break out at the supermarket between a black man and a white man, and it’ll look like the courthouse in “A Time to Kill.”  Lines will be drawn, and they will be drawn quickly.
I’ve got a friend that watched Mayweather-De La Hoya on closed circuit in Vegas.  Said the room was primarily black and Mexican, which made for quite the interesting scene when Mayweather entered the ring looking like a Mexican minstrel.
Either way, a fight broke up between a group of Mexicans and a group of black folks.  My boy was nearby.  He said he quickly moved away.  Didn’t want anyone to get the mistaken impression that he came with that particular set of black folks.
Good call on his part.
