    People are kidding themselves if they think there isn't a racial component in much of the criticism against Floyd. Like T.O., Deion Sanders, Ali in his time, Jack Johnson, and others, the larger society has always had problems with outspoken, "arrogant" black athletes. Aside from that, the overall fan approval of Mosley is quite curious, since he has some glaring losses, arguably lost his second fight with Hoya, got caught using steroids, and is now doing the same cherrypicking of opponents Floyd is endlessly berated for, claiming other title holders and contenders like Clottey and Berto aren't big enough pay per view attractions to fight and recieving little to no criticism for it. Huge double standards at play here.

    He is skilled,but now he is a coward and people like the topic writer just dont see that.. I could care less if he raps,has bling etc.. I care about what happens in the ring,and when you have Floyd Runweather dodging a handfull of guys and is said to be the best well thats just sad.. Stop living in the past,this is now and Mosley want's him now..


    My standards are high for fighters I like to watch.. Some not all Floyd fans are perfectly fine seeing him fight smaller guys,and thats fine,but you cant sit here and say your the best in the same breath and not step up to the plate..

    i don't know if i should be amazed or sad for the two of you.

    how can someone impartial like me be a racist, especially when you compare mosley and pbf. both are black. both great fighters but different characters.

    it is really beyond me. a couple of posts ago, i was called a white racist, white supremacist? now I am an asian racist.

    you need to lay off the stuff bro. there are racists and there are racists. i grew up idolizing srl and he was black. tyson was favorite fighter of mine. and he is black.

    you perpetuate this racism by accusing every tom dick and harry of racism whenever they disagree with your idol pbf.

    Yes, Void is extremely skilled at trash talking. He has diarrhea of the mouth.

    Alias? :lol: No, I'm actually more of a reader (been reading for nearly 2 years), I only joined so I could read the threads in the lounge.

    I'll post occasionally when I feel the need to, or to shut up clowns like yourself. But to be honest, Toops, I'm of the attitude that this place is a ****ing madhouse - and it's completely pointless trying to debate with lunatics, right? (although there are some great posters I enjoy reading).

    Who said that? :rofl Not me, Toops. Fighters of all races get criticized on here. I was merely pointing out that hoodrats like yourself shouldn't cry racism all the time because you're clearly far more partisan about supporting your own than almost every other group of people on here. It's called hypocrisy, babe. When you learn exactly what it means give me a call and I'll bake you a ****ing cake.:good

    Suicide isn't the answer, Toops. These ownage wounds will heal in time.

    :rofl What absolute bull****!. I was talking about Ali's popularity now, not in the Summer of Love-if-you're-going-to-San-Fran-****ing-cisco-pass-the-reefer-I-ain't-going-to-kill-no-gooks-****-them-daft-dodgers-I-hate-whitey type ****. Fool!

    And what about Jones, Holyfield, Tyson, Leonard, Hagler, Lewis? Were they not popular during their respective reigns? :nut

    And until you provide me with that list Toops, this debate is closed. I've proven my point, and you can't refute it because you know I'm right.

    Infact, end of debate. I'm done with you and this thread. I haven't come on here to argue and *****.

    And one last thing, you're an intelligent guy (and witty too) and you should already know that ''hate only begets hate'' :good

    I think he may have the best skill set of the 2000's, but it's so upsetting to see how he squandered a career legacy that could have trully made for a ATG top 20 career.

    The opponents were there, the opportunities were there and to a degree I guess they still are.

    It annoys me that the best don't always fight the best. Floyds not the only one guilty of that, but when you can see the quality it just sucks.

    Yeah now Im a racist. I hate my white mom, my white uncles and aunts, my white girlfriend, my white friends. Boy oh boy wait till they find out what a raging racist I am. :rofl

    I respect the Klit sisters for what they do outside of boxing. I dont like the way their fighting style, I dont like the fight that they wont fight one another. Other then that, Im perfectly fine with them as men. I just wont watch them fight because they are boring.
    *yawn* the number of belts held by non-Americans is no greater then it was 30 years ago.

    Btw, most Brits I know dont like the Klits either. :|

    Floyd is popular because he does have a an exciting style when he chooses to implement it, and has had exciting fights in the past. Hhas a cocky attitude that draws both hate and love in boxing. Alot of Floyd haters are actually black. Many of them on this forum. Alot of his fans are white.
