Dixon must have been a retard if he thought Portuguese people looked like Keyshawn Johnson.

The negro football player doesn't look like any Portuguese person I've ever met. lol
As for the black-and-white photo of a man alleged to be Portuguese--- When comparing him to the negro, notice the disparity in their noses. The negro has a . . . well, a negro nose. It's broad, flat. The man from the black-and-white photo, contrariwise, has a small, well-modeled European nose. Likewise with the skull type--the black man has a classic sub-Saharan prognathous jaw, the other man has a Caucasoid jaw. Furthermore, the white man has short-cropped hair that, if longer (or in a better-lit photo) would mark quite a contrast to the negro's hair. One is rather relying on the blurriness and darkness of the photo to draw more of a comparison than there really is. And as for the allegation that the Portuguese man is particularly dark-skinned--- Consider: Many early photographs make the people in them artificially dark because the lighting technology was so poor and the camera's ability to pick up light was bad. That's why in early cinema, everybody is "whitened" with pancake make-up. Otherwise they'd come out looking far darker than they actually were in real life. So to pull out an old photo of a white man with short-cropped hair and to pretend that he's as dark as a negro is rather dishonest.

American Athroplogist who never visted Portugal. The picture is of unknown origin from 1920's. Here is a picture of Dixon himself:

I was going to answer pretty much the same, that the reason may have been that he never saw a portuguese person in his life/went to portugal.

And like all trolls, he's looking for a reaction, good or bad. And the best way to deal with those types is to ignore them altogether...simple enough.
