Nice article - Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s weakness is exposed. In spite of all the discrepancies of many other fighters who have gone before him, none of them have ever shielded their cowardice behind race.
Let go on record for a matter of FACT! Fact 1) Jose Harris admitted to lying under oath at one point that Floyd beat her, she even went as far as calling his gentle. This was also the first of many of their domestic dispute that has gone public. Fact 2) What other issue has Floyd had with the Law in which was convicted of ? NONE. Fact 3) despite all the hype you placed on Ali, many US citizen label him a draft dodger and a traitor. Fact 4) Marvin Haggler , Carlos Munzon, Ray Robinson, Jake Lamatta where far more worse with the treatment of their women, then Floyd so called domestic dispute with jose Harris. Floyd does not apologize for his life style, which is by the way is to keep Pac Nuts hating and on his nuts 48 7 non - stop for what ever reason. Get a life or give it up!
They didn't have too it went with out saying ! Black would be called coward no matter what they did inside or outside the ring based on their skin.. If you're not Black you have no right to even speak on a struggle you can't even imagine.
This is a response to the post of Deboz. I read your post and I am quite famaliar with the evnts of that very same interview in which you speak of. Let it be said that I am a die hard mayweather fan, but I can also be objective when speaking about him. During that interview, Mayweather did sound ignorant. Actually I found him to be very stupid and uneducated, but then I realized he is exactly that so in the end what do I expect from a man who never got an education. Boxing has been his life from day 1, he knows the business inside out and frankly I don't think there is a soul in the sport today that can tell him anything about the sport of boxing. So when people question his motives after dedicating himself so much and giving up many things to get where he is while always having people doubt your heart, skill, and business sense, I can totally imagine that this must be evry frustrating at times even for the undefeated mayweather himself. Bringing up the whole race issue is a touchy topic. I am a black male who loves in Canada. I am from West Indian descent, parents are from the Caribbean. Anytime I hear the word black, it's a problem because what is black? Just because someone is black doesn't mean I will identify with them because a skin color doesn't make me who I am. The foods I eat, music I listen to, slang, dialect, upbringing, values, morals, these things shape who i am not race or color. So when Mayweather lashes out with this black talk, either he's an idiot or he knows ecaxtly what he is doing in regards to generating some sort of resentment towards him which will force people to want to see him lose all while making money doing so. Muhammed Ali and all the greats who stood for something had to because that was the era they fought in. Now, it's the money era. No one does anything without wanting to get paid and these athletes are no different. The whole Pac talk was crazy because eveyone expected Mayweather to have to cave in while Pac gets a passed. Mayweather is probably looking at it and saying" What the F...? It seems as if when black, people want to control you. And this whole Black term may be just an American thing. Black don't make you, culture does! Mayweather doesn't fight for blacks, as a fighter of color who had to endure many bull**** along the way, Mayweather is doing it his way.
if you believe your skin colour gives you a monopoly on social injustice, there's no point discussing struggle with you.
in ***** land, 1 day is 48 hrs. i dont care about his lifestyle. theftjr is a serial woman beater and a lying racist. end of.:good
No one listens to Floyd, we just watch him box. Ain't the sharpest tool in the shed, doesn't have to be.
watching tehftjr against a handicapped bum and still got raped is right in the *****s alley. then declare him the best.:rofl
I think some people foolishly expect these athletes to be role models and social leaders, when really...they are entertainers.
