Mexicans support Mexicans. Canadians support Canadians. White support Pavlik. Romanians support Romanians. Brits support brits. Filipinos support emmanuel. Maybe it is you who is racially insensitive.
Your not even black leon... Your buddies outed you yesterday!! :rofl So what are you? Or is the little baby afraid to say his ethnicity.. :|
It is what it is dude. A man has to be responsible for his own actions...that includes the things he says. If words you speak as a man is aimed at anther, meant to damage with the intent to discredit you better have the means to back it up! Especially if you bring it to a level that has global attention. In boxing you have your name to protect...not just the physical aspect. At this level you need that name to get you fights. You can't just go out and start running your mouth about anther person at work and not be held accountable to back your **** up. That's grounds to be fired or to be reprimanded. Everyone has a right to their opinions.....but no one has the right to go out and vocally blast ones "OPINION" to the masses with the intent to hurt anther mans rep.
You need to insert the word GENERALLY at the beginning of your post. Not ALL Whites (nor all blacks) support boxers based on on race. My top ten HW list has nine blacks, including eight American blacks. My alltime top six boxers (based on pure boxing skill) are ALL black Americans. I will usually root for the Irish boxer (if there's one in the fight), but other than that, I usually base it on the individual boxer. I supported Taylor over Pav, Vitali over Peter, Pac over Hatton, Mosley over Marg, Oscar over Floyd, etc. And Ali over anybody. And most serious fans, IMO, do likewise.
I don't know how these *****s try to argue that they are the least racially motivated fans... what a joke. The one thing all the *****s share in common is race.
Wha?? Nard lost his street cred b/c he's going all out in teaching this young man a lesson about respect and being responsible? That ass whoopin he handed JP last Saturday was pretty "street" if you ask me.:yep
Hey, learn how to form your thoughts into paragraphs instead of this sentence vomit. :thumbsup And now I will proceed to smash your argument... Hopkins said he doesn't lose to "White Boys" and that Pascal is a "4 round fighter". Both accusations are untrue. Should they also result in lawsuits? The damage of a statement is considered in context. If another Boxer is called a chump and subsequently KTFO can he sue the other Boxer for ruining his future fights by lowering his purses? You follow or don't enter into the contract. If you can deal with the slander than don't test. Hopkins (and Pac) didn't. If I wanted to have intimate relations with that person and they are putting their life on the line sleeping with me? I WOULD take the test. Why? Because it facilitates in getting my name cleared so I can get what I want out of this. Would you sleep with a person who refused to do STD testing if asked? If you would you are a fool. Why would this even be valid? Who cares what they say I have in my basement? If an amazingly compensated and prestgious job offer required it? Damn right I would. Search away give me my job so I can get on to the business of making money! I have gone through getting secret clearances where they have searched all through my life. I wanted the job. I did it. WTF are you talking about idiot? I am glad B-Hop won. I also am fine with him not testing because the fight was contested per the terms of the contract. My point is that his lawsuit is frivolous. None of us can say what was fair and square. We are here to give opinions idiot. How do you "say it as a fact"? I say you are a moron. That is a "fact". I will have my lawyer waiting for your lawsuit. Only a moron like you would welcome slander and libel laws into pre-fight trash talk sessions. WEAK!
I questioned someone who made a racially divisive comment. That makes me racially insensitive? **** me, with logic like that no wonder you post the **** you do. Yes, there is an element where people follow a boxer based on their race rather than anything else. That is not a good thing.
See I generally like boxers and then boxer-punchers. If it's two guys with styles I favor fighting, I generally go with the American. It would be foolish to pretend race or nationality doesn't exist in boxing. You have kids like slugger3000 wearing a Mexican flag underwear over his head to root for his countryman ANTONIO, EVEN AFTER HE GOT BUSTED WITH PLASTERS. Only Mexicans can take nationalistic pride that far.
No one is turned away from Blood testing kid. We just have a bunch of big mouths talking about it rather than being about it. Floyd is the only one who stepped up and that was b/c he painted himself into a corner that he had no other choice but to follow through with his own demands. Jean could have stepped up and been the BIGGER man if he was DEAD SERIOUS about Blood Testing. If Nard didn't want to take it, JP could have manned up and did the tests himself if he was really serious about the importance of the additional tests. But no one is stepping up.....they expect Nard and PAC to adhere to other men's demands after they've acted so irresponsibly with their words. It absolutely makes NO sense.
