There are only whites in fighting sports? The fuck you smoking

I think you misunderstand the sentiment of white trash. Nowhere did they say there only whites in fighting sports.

I have seen all folks and cultures holding trashy illegal fighting tournaments I don't understand

To my undertstanding it invokes a particular steriotype of a bunch of white people living trashily in a trailer park, usually while thinking they're better than everyone else.

context clues suggest this particular instance is specifically catered to the white trash constituency
