Are the people who claim Hopkins made racist comments actually racist themselves?

How the **** do you know what's on my mind 24/7..I'm doing fine, how are you?

BTW, by dissing the guardian I can only assume you read the Sun

 

Where did I say Africa is a race. Get your facts right:nut

 

Can you give your reasons why do would like a lipsyncher over a rapper talented enough not to have to write his lyrics on paper....or are your mates so narrow minded and full of stereotypes about black rappers:deal

 

If Joe had repeatedly shouted

"I'll never lose my titles to a black boy"

"I'll never lose my titles to a black boy"

"I'll never lose my titles to a black boy"

Would he have been called a racist?

The answer is YES ! !

So why should Hopkins get away with the same thing?

 

Not really!
I don't think either should make statements based on skin colour, it has no relevance to the fight and is purely designed to be incendury.

Worse than that, Hopkins made the statement knowing that Calzaghi could'nt go there with him! He then seemed to revel in some warped sense of victory from the exchange.

Its not PC overkill, its just one of those subjects that we ought to have left behind years ago.

FWIW I agree with much of whats been said regarding the over use of political correctness but there are some areas where its done good, racism is one of them.

 

I'm just riding this wave and looking forward to the fight saturday.

 

He is implying the white race is inferior, that is racist.

And to answer the response, "no hes not, its just that his culture would make fun of him if he lost to a white" well his culture is implying the white race is inferior, that makes his culture racist, and he is supporting that racisim with his statement.

 

Why would it be worse to lose to one race if that race was not viewed as inferior?

Implying that one race is embarassing to lose to is racist. It is a minor issue, but its obviously rooted in a belief of supremecy

 

Okay, this thread is starting to go nowhere. Let's just sum this up with the immortal words of R. Lee Ermey in full metal jacket, "I don't care if you are a hick, ****, ****** or *****, your are all equally worthless in my eyes". There you go, I've officially offended everyone (except the Native Americans, I think).

 

Notice how only "hick" gets past the pc filter. That's racism right there my friends. What ever happened to freedom of speech.

 

Oh shut the **** up.
