Is there a reason for the white dominance at 160?

Lacy was a bum to begin with. He was just another overhyped afflete that the media thought would rule the super middleweight division. Obviously that all changed once Lacy stepped into the ring with a real athlete. The thinking was this, white guy from England who hasn't fought any big names vs. supremely conditioned and more athletic black American.

Lacy was being hyped as a SMW "Tyson" before Joe owned him. Go to boxingscene and look at their writers and DWFs opinions on why Joe would get owned and then just like every other fighter Joe beat they suddenly became "washed up, past prime, overrated, bums ETC" afterward. If Joe were ever to lose no matter how old he was they all would've been gloating about him being a protected hype job that was never any good.

Calzaghe was a joy to watch but he was clearly starting to decline and lose the motivation to stay on top so he got out at the perfect time, undefeated and with dominating victories over his affletic contemporaries, Hopkins and Jones. The big 4 (MW-LHW) during Calzaghe's reign were himself, Hopkins, Jones and Toney and Joe was clearly the best which is why the DWFs HATE him so much.

No one from the 80's would come close to dominating Calzaghe
If Calzaghe only had more power I would rank him as a top five fighter of all time, regardless of division.
It's the power of anti-white propaganda,
It sure is.  Calzaghe could have knocked good ole Bernard Popkins out if he had more power.  He was landing at will against the so called "superior" athlete.  Either way he got robbed on one of the scorecards by the racist black judge.  Blacks shouldn't be allowed to be judges in boxing because they always screw the white fighter.  Always.
Before Calzaghe broke his hands he had alot of punching power. Just go back and watch his earlier fights.

I hope Joe steers away from the illicit drugs forever.
