No nickname mentioned when Joshua was introduced by the ring announcer last night so not sure he has one yet. Any suggestions?

No offense mate but that sounds like it has racist overtones.

OIL
Yep. It's a great name (even if I do say so myself) He's black, he won gold. Oil starts off crude and goes through a refining process. It can be worth a lot of money. We all need it in our lives. It can be slick. Etc...

Anybody would think I work for Saatchi Bros.

He's black and has the outline of the African continent tattooed on his right delt. Don't look for the scandal when there's none there.

In the CS thread about Garcia having one more fight at 140 he just said Garcia's last fight at 140 should be against in his words "donkey kong jnr". He was referring to Adrien Broner. Apparantly he wasnt being racist aswell because he's black himself apparantly.
