.<\/span><\/span><\/p>John Arthur Johnson pode n\u00e3o falar muito com os jovens f\u00e3s de boxe, mas o Gigante de Galveston \u00e9 uma das figuras mais significativas na hist\u00f3ria do esporte. Constantemente cuspido, condenado injustamente e totalmente desprezado pela ra\u00e7a branca, Johnson \u00e9 o primeiro campe\u00e3o mundial negro dos pesos pesados da hist\u00f3ria e sem d\u00favida uma das figuras mais ic\u00f4nicas do boxe e um s\u00edmbolo da luta dos negros nos Estados Unidos pela igualdade com os brancos. <\/p>
Johnson foi um dos maiores talentos do boxe do final do s\u00e9culo XIX e in\u00edcio do s\u00e9culo XX. Ele rapidamente ganhou notoriedade nos c\u00edrculos de boxe, mas em 1901 acabou na pris\u00e3o por uma luta ilegal contra Joe Chonsky. Na luta em quest\u00e3o, Chonsky nocauteou o Gigante de Galveston no 3\u00ba round, e enquanto os dois estavam detidos, a pol\u00edcia do Texas organizou brigas ilegais entre os dois. Ambos foram posteriormente libertados, e o pr\u00f3prio Johnson afirmou que foi na pris\u00e3o que desenvolveu suas habilidades no boxe. Ele mostra exatamente isso \u2013 vence todos os advers\u00e1rios seguidos, chega ao t\u00edtulo de \u201ccolorido\u201d no peso pesado, e seu desejo \u00e9 claro \u2013 lutar pelo t\u00edtulo mundial no boxe. Por\u00e9m, seu caminho at\u00e9 l\u00e1 foi muito dif\u00edcil, pois o ent\u00e3o campe\u00e3o James Jeffries - representante da ra\u00e7a branca - recusou-se categoricamente a enfrent\u00e1-lo no ringue. Al\u00e9m disso, em 1905 ele anunciou que estava desistindo do boxe, preferindo a aposentadoria a dar uma chance a Johnson. <\/p>
Por\u00e9m, o gigante n\u00e3o parou de sonhar e, em 1908, fez um grande pedido pela disputa do t\u00edtulo, ap\u00f3s nocautear o ex-campe\u00e3o mundial Bob Fitzsimmons no 2\u00ba round. Mesmo assim, por\u00e9m, ele n\u00e3o teve chance de conquistar o t\u00edtulo e perseguiu o ent\u00e3o campe\u00e3o Tommy Burns por todo o mundo, interrompendo suas apari\u00e7\u00f5es na m\u00eddia e provocando-o, dizendo que estava com medo dele. No final, a luta s\u00f3 aconteceu quando eles prometeram a Burns $ 30.000 garantidos para entrar no ringue. A arena do confronto foi o Sydney Stadium, na Austr\u00e1lia, e em 26 de dezembro de 1908, Johnson teve sua chance - de ganhar o t\u00edtulo dos pesos pesados. <\/p>
Ele faz exatamente isso \u2013 Johnson domina o confronto do in\u00edcio ao fim. Burns fica frustrado com os socos do oponente, que tem uma vantagem t\u00e3o s\u00e9ria que no meio da luta levanta os bra\u00e7os para o lado e incita Burns a dar um soco no corpo dele com toda a for\u00e7a que tem. O campe\u00e3o faz exatamente isso, mas Johnson nem se mexe. Em vez disso, ele voltou a aterrorizar a cabe\u00e7a do campe\u00e3o e no 14\u00ba assalto a pol\u00edcia entrou no ringue para interromper a luta, pois Burns mal conseguia ficar em p\u00e9. A luta foi interrompida e Jack Johnson foi nomeado o primeiro campe\u00e3o mundial de boxe profissional afro-americano dos pesos pesados. <\/p>
Not\u00edcias disto chegaram aos Estados Unidos, provocando tumultos violentos e racistas em dezenas de cidades em todo o pa\u00eds. No entanto, a hist\u00f3ria foi reescrita e este \u00e9 apenas o come\u00e7o da vida turbulenta de Johnson \u2013 o homem que virou boxe nos Estados Unidos e se tornou um s\u00edmbolo da luta pela igualdade na Am\u00e9rica. <\/p>
