Comedian DL Hughley defends Serena Williams' physique

The actor, comedian, and radio host made the comment on twitter two days ago and I agree with him.

Following Serena's victory on Saturday, her physique has been a topic of conversation especially among white tennis fans. A New York Times article even had this to say:



"Williams has large biceps and a mold-breaking muscular frame, which packs the power and athleticism that have dominated women’s tennis for years. Her rivals could try to emulate her physique, but most of them choose not to"
Hughley isn't the only one that has come to Serena's defence. British author J.K. Rowling took down a twitter troll who said the tennis star is 'She is built like a man.' See that here
