In paragraph 9, Oates states that American boxing is about race, but that the moral issues are ambiguous, posing a rhetorical question about whether there is a moral distinction between “the spectacle of black slaves in the Old South being forced by their white owners to fight . . . and the spectacle of contemporary blacks
