    <--- Canadian but voted as an American 'cause it's close enough and I didn't want to feel left out.

    TBH though, I rarely see people on this forum who are totally clueless about other fighters.

    However, Im aiming more for the Armenian guy who supports Abraham, or the German who loves the Klits. To get the full spectrum, not just haters.

    I see what you mean. Now that I have voted, I can't see who voted what.

    Anyone know how to change that?

    I still do my thing when I can...just moved up to Maryland, so I haven't been able to get as much in as I can. This place sucks. Not a boxing gym in sight!

    You have things backwards. It's the Filipino fans who seem to have race issues and a personal hate for Mayweather. Most black Mayweather fans have respect for Pacquiao and his fans.

    I couldn't give a **** about either fighter, other than I want them both to quit the bull**** and get in the ring with each other.

    Then I hope they knock the **** out of each other for 12 good clean rounds, while the world and it's wife watches. And that boxing is the winner in the end.

    What? I would think the boxing gyms and sparring would be really good. Oh well. Got to get you a in house set up.

    I know the "scenery" can't be as good. :lol:

    Blacks have always followed politics because our lives depended on it at some points in history,Lincoln was loved and blacks once voted exclusively Republican and had a lot of blacks in office.Actually more than today!As well blacks have voted 90 percent democrat since (the 60's) J F Kennedy.Obama got 92 percent,Clinton got 92 percent.Don't believe the TV.Nothing changed in the last election except Republicans lost more Latino's than ever.

    Also blacks do not hate pinoys who have old black blood flowing through them (In general but also heavily in the negritoes).They just don't like this hard headed approach that is hero worship and not boxing analysis.That is all,believe me.I have had two filipina's.

    hawaiian's are mostly japanese and korean and chinese.That was racist to generalize like that.There are pinoys there but they are mostly in California.Although hawaiian's speak pidgin and some speak tagalog.

    It's slightly exaggerated.It's probably more like 70 percent.But that's extremely disproportionate for a group that's 13%-15% of the population.It gets worse in the top 50 or top 30.The percent does go up to about 85%.

    Huh? How does some random Filipino guy relate to this forum and the rabid Filipino fans? Also, what does the Hawaiin population have to do with Filipinos when they make up 13% of the population. Large, but come on.

    What does Africa and Black Americans have to do with anything? Africa is the second largest land mass on the planet. Are all Asians to be counted as Filipinos now? Ignorant.

    Quit equivocating. Most FMJ fans don't go to that racist crap until AFTER Pac fans do. Look at the avatars. That tells you all you need to know.

    Your post was ignorant.

    Another ignorant statement. Idolizing Pac is NOT loving boxing. Filipino fans are hated because of the ignorant things they say and all of the facts they ignore.

    So rather than seek out other boxing fans you stay and front. Says a lot about you.

    WRONG. Honoring Obama's achievement is one thing, but if Obama was doing crap he should be called on it. If Obama is a gateway into them actually LEARNING about American policy, how it applies to them, and what Obama's policy stances are? GREAT! If they just think Obama is the greatest president ever based on BS? They are actually HURTING Obama by making his supporters look like idiots.

    So the hell what? Was EVERYONE nice? Or did you notice a distinct racial schism? I can't stand when people get on these things and start making BS blanket statements like that. Morals, nice, blah, blah, blah.

    Come on man. People in general are decent if their economic situations are OK. Period. A White, Black, Asian, Hispanic, etc... guy are all likely to be nice if they are working in IT because they probably get paid well.
