This is going to be very controversial, no?

I know opinions like this have been floated around in the past, but as far as I know, never so openly or by someone so prominent. Anybody know of any cases?

My natural reaction is to say it's rubbish but that's not based on anything really. The fact that lots of black athletes are at the pointy end might mean he's right but who knows... i'd be interested to see some science to confirm or deny this kind of statement.

Edit: Can a mod edit the title of the thread? I have NOOO idea how I wrote Michael Watson. What was i thinking about instead of Johnson? No idea!
